Euro 2016: England 2-1 Wales: 5 talking points

What happened to Wales?

Ramsey must improve in the final group game against the Russians.

Wales came into the game brimming with confidence after their 2-1 win over Slovakia. This time around, apart from the likes of Gareth Bale and Joe Allen, no one really made a mark. Arsenal man Aaron Ramsey was disappointing, and had a game to forget and Hal Robson-Kanu cut a lone figure up front. To be fair to the striker, though, the service was lacking.

So what went wrong for Wales? To begin with, the players seemed to be overwhelmed by the occasion. It was indeed a big game. Further, post the goal, Chris Coleman’s men hardly attacked. In the second half it was all one-way traffic and Wales eventually could not hold on. The next game against Russia is huge for Wales as a loss could send them crashing out after such a promising start.
