Ramsey will miss the semi-final due to suspension

If one man was instrumental in turning Wales’ fortunes around on Friday, it was none other than Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey. He chose the perfect night to respond to doubts about his ability as a big-game player – he was electric in the attacking third. His vision helped him pick his targets to perfection and his corner-kicks always threatened to unsettle a young Belgian defence. He ended the game with two assists – one for Ashley Williams’ leveller and the other for Hal Robson-Kanu’s excellent goal to put Wales 2-1 up.

Unfortunately, his performance was marred by a booking which will rule him out of Wednesday’s semi-final against Portugal due to an accumulation of yellow cards. Based on this performance, he is bound to be missed by the Welsh dugout.
