Wales have got historical achievement. The Dragons will participate in Euro’ final tournament first time. Even Liverpool star forward Ian Rush or Manchester United legend Rayan Giggs failed to help the team to make it to the prestigious competition. However, Gareth Bale and his teammates accomplished this task.

Year of historical achievement

Wales might consider 2015 year as historical for sure. They have achieved more than possibility to play in final tournament. The Dragons have outrun England in FIFA World Rankings for the first time. Obviously, it won’t affect football itself, but this fact should make Welshmen happy, since they will have reasons to troll Englishmen. Considering their relations, it will be hard to avoid this.

It is important to note that experts, who give predictions for football, claimed before the beginning of qualifiers that Wales had big changes to get to the next round. Considering increased amount of competitors and quite weak opponents in the group, the Dragons had to use that and show their best. They accomplished that task, doubtlessly.

Bale, Ramsey and the others.

For now, Wales have the best squad for many years. Decisions and changes made by officials and aimed at development of academies and children’ football delivered results. Generation of talented players have grown up. Now Wales have such stars as Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey. Exactly these footballers have been the main key factors of success, since head coach Chris Coleman has built the team around them. Bale should be distinguished among the others, he’s shown himself as the real leader. Real Madrid’ player scored important goals and helped the team during crucial moments.

Head coach

Head coach of Wales should be told about as well. Chris Coleman has done incredible work, especially considering that other performers are not so strong as Bale and Ramsey. There are numerous fair players in squad, but footballers of Real and Arsenal play along with performers of Nottingham, Wolverhampton and clubs from other minor leagues of England. Surely, they are not so skilled as their star teammates, so squad is not too balanced. Though, Coleman has managed to make the team to show solid team play, which allowed to improve defense. Solid defense in turn gave Bale possibility to create chances without taking care of it, which lead to several confident wins.

Participation in Euro is breakthrough of Wales national team. Ian Rush and Ryan Giggs are happy with that for sure. They haven’t played in final competition, but star players made every possible effort. Now other descent lads have replaced them being ready to achieve higher goals.
