Now this isn’t just another Euro 2016 game. Points aren’t the only thing at stake, when both teams face on another tonight. It’s about pride, passion and desire – something statistics can never explain.
It has been 433 minutes/32 years since Wales last scored against England. This however is a Welsh squad with the bit between their teeth following their opening win against Slovakia. A win made to look all the more impressive after the Slovak’s performance against Russia in Lille yesterday.
Incredibly, Wales can lock up the Group B top spot with a win against England and while they start as underdogs, getting on the score sheet to break that barren run against the English is not beyond them. As they proved by conceding that sucker punch equalizer against Russia, England’s defense is still suspect.
#BestBets – England vs Wales = BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE
