It seems the expectation is now that Wales have to win every game, but as we know this isn’t the case. A draw will suffice. 😉
World Cup qualifier. Home
Wednesday 8th September 2021
Kick off 7.45 pm
LIVE on SKY Sports Football & S4C
After surviving a huge scare against Belarus at the weekend, Wales will be aiming to make it three wins in a row in World Cup qualifying when they host Estonia on Wednesday. Cymru are third in Group E, a point behind second-placed Czech Republic with a game in hand, while Estonia are bottom and without a point from their opening three matches.
Ex Swansea City player Joe Rodon has joined up with the Welsh squad and will play on Wednesday.
This is the first time Wales have played Estonia in a cup competition. The previous other two games were friendlies. Wales are undefeated against Estonia.
23 May 1994 Estonia v Wales. 1-2 International Friendly
29 May 2009 Wales v Estonia 1-0 International Friendly
Estonia Facts
Estonia is famous for its dense woods, charming historic centre of Tallinn and delightfully unique history that spans millennia. In recent years, the Baltic nation has seen a boom in tourism and even implemented a Digital Nomad Visa for those looking to stick around long term. The thought of hundreds of uninhabited islands scattered across a glistening sea may not conjure up images of a Baltic nation. However, Estonia will surprise you. Estonia is home to a staggering amount of more than 2,300 islands. Many of which are completely untouched and unexplored and others loaded with ancient history and charm. The most famous of these Baltic islands are Hiiumaa, Kiknu and Saaremaa.
They also invented the Kit Kat, a four fingered treat often associated with the U.K. When Estonia invented the Kit Kat it was called a Spicy Sprats Snack — Vürtsikilu Suupiste. You can find sprats in most local food stores and supermarkets. They can be bought smoked, canned, or pickled in a spicy brine. All bring unique, fresh flavors to the table.
Had this food been made of a wafer covered in chocolate, split in to four parts and packaged in a red and white wrapping it would have most certainly resembled the Kit Kat as we know it today.

Lookd like the instructions were to get the ball to Bale … who yet again was no way going to score. |  |

Is Gabbidon Mark Harris' agent? Or father? You'd think the lad's a world beater the way he's being talked up. |
Colwill looked bang average on the weekend as well | | | |

"A nightmare to play against" apparently.
Gunter must close his eyes before crossing the ball. |
Wales waited until 75 mins before playing short snappy passes into the box assisted by Allen and Harris making good which Roberts was not making. That style was needed for 90 mins. Roberts showed no football brain as Jonno was free on a open goal for the square. I cannot see any justification for picking Roberts. he is not good at running passing or heading and cannot score anywhere. He also skimped on the Belarus trip by failing to get his visa. Time to ditch.
Page picked 3 league 1 players Gunter, Jonno and Morrell.
Page need to change things in preparation for the play off earned by the Nations league. Czechs seem to have lost their mojo. There is a guy at Huddersfield who's mother is from Newport Sorba Thomas. Robson Kanu is not even playing and would have helped with some craft tonight if match fit. |  |

This nonsense of only ever selecting 1 out and out striker in squads (or none when he's not available) has to stop. Even Vokes would have provided some presence in the box tonight during those desperate last 20minutes. |  |

Just back from the game. In three words?
Not good enough.
Tyler Roberts needs to have a look at himself, when Harris came on he played that role far better, and I won't even mention the miss.
Yes, we should've won with the chances we made but that was diabolical. Why do we persist playing Bale as a winger when he constantly drops deep for the ball and totally unbalances the side? Once Wilson went off I would have stuck Bale at 10 and brought Johnson in to play wide right.
Johnny Williams has a cult status amongst the fans but let's face it, whilst he looks busy, his end product isn't good enough. There's a reason he's in league 2. | | | |

Yes it is.
Giggs has brought the FAW into disrepute, guilty or not.
Even if he could sue for constructive or wrongful dismissal the amount left on his contract would not be great. | |

It’s got nothing to do with strikers. We can’t even muster a decent ball into the box as they were defending so deep they killed all the space. If you can’t pass the ball into the box you have to carry the ball into the box. Not one of our players looked to have the ability to do that - it’s a basic skill. |  |

We had 3 golden chances, chances that should have been taken.
1st minute Wilson , that was a gimme. He couldnt even hit the target.
Bale, a lovely move then a lazy leg swing, high and wide. Should have been in the back of the net.
Roberts, why on earth didnt he lay it for Williams to tap on? Greedy, pure greed who wanted the glory.
3-0 would and should have been the score. |  |

It was a game made for Kieffer Moore. The useless article wasnt vaccinated so had to drop out. He needs a serious wording. And more. | |

Said that to the eldest, he isjt that good but he would have held the ball up, caused problems and got on the end of crosses.
He needs a big effing slap. | | | |

Bale straight at the keeper.
Bale free kick (or was it twice) high and wide as usual.
James still fluffing the final ball 95% of the time as he did in the under 18s
Every team has an off day but Cymru are now having occasional good days.
At least Ward was on form.
Estonia FIFA ranked 106
Wales FIFA ranked 13
Utter disgrace. | |
