Phil SumblerThe World Cup draw has given Wales a real chance of World Cup qualification with a semi final against Austria and – if successful – a home tie in the final against either Scotland or Ukraine who will meet at Hampden Park.
The draw this afternoon threw out some interesting possibilities -one of them being the potential of Wales v Scotland and the other being a single game shoot out between Portugal and Italy, at least one of whom will miss out on the World Cup final stages.

“We’ve worked ever so hard to finish second and get that home draw.
“We’ve got everything to play for.”
