Wales in history-making bid to reach Euro 2016 semi-final
“It’s something we’ve worked so hard for in six, seven, eight years, being ranked where we were to where we are now, it’s a credit to everybody involved and long may it continue”.
“It’s Portugal versus Wales, nothing more” said Bale.
Swansea and Watford had already contacted Robson-Kanu before his wonder goal against Belgium in the Euro 2016 quarter-finals.

Their statement read: “After consultation between the federal president and the chairman, we have decided not to make any hasty decisions, but to take a few weeks working on a thorough evaluation of the national team’s performance”. We have always said that. We’ve taken that into the tournament now.
Defender Ben Davies will also miss the semi-final and Ramsey described his foul as a “natural reaction”, accepting he deserved to be booked for the offence.
Giggs, capped 64 times by Wales, is the most decorated player in United’s illustrious history and he amassed a record 963 appearances and 35 major trophies before going on to serve as an assistant to former managers David Moyes and Louis van Gaal.
But it is the Belgians that get on the board first – Radja Nainggolan put Belgium ahead with a thunderous 25-yard strike in the 13th minute.
“Wales had more chances than us and were more risky. From the back it’s nice to watch the unbelievable players in front of you”.
If they do then Ramsey will be back in the team and he could well find himself up against a club team ate or two if Germany or France get there.
“Amazing performance, fantastic result. I will be right in the mix of it, so hopefully they can do it”.
“Amazing performance, incredible result”, tweeted Prime Minister David Cameron.
Fromer England great Gary Lineker named Wales “sensationally good” and The Guardian spoke of “a night that will surely go down as their (Wales) finest on a football field”.
“Immediately after they scored we bossed the first half, we were the better team. You have got to dare to dream”.
In contrast, Belgium head coach Marc Wilmots said: “We were listed amongst the teams that could have gone all the way”.
They won the group ahead of England against who they narrowly lost while beating Slovakia and Russian Federation, then edged Northern Ireland before Friday’s historic win now pits them against Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal.
