❌World Cup 2026❌ Cymru 1 Bosnia 1 (Bosnia win 4-2 on pens) | 26/03/2026 | The Official Match Thread | The Cardiff City Stadium

Poor Bellamy decisions. Johnson should have come off in normal time.. Harris over Broadhead was such a poor decision especially playing along side Cullen.

Sadly Brooks, and both James's coming off killed us although we had half chances to nick it

Harris over broadhead was a mental decision.

Laters chaps

I think losing to Italy on pens would have been worse, but this still hurts.

The match thread for Northern Ireland will be very basic. I can’t be arsed with that match now. I will be concentrating on the mighty Swans.

Brennan Johnson has looked good at club level whatever league he’s played in. I watched him quite a bit for Forest and Spurs in the PL and he is definitely good enough, perhaps we aren’t playing to his strengths? That’s the only thing I can come up with.

All about options as I think he p!ays when he wants but doesn't put in a shift for the team

In the end we don't have enough quality and have to rely on a few players.
Some players not having enough minutes for their team and others not being able to take the step up from league games doesn't give enough to be able to go further in competitions.

Penalties are not a lottery. They are a football skill and dealing with pressure.

A lottery would be drawing straws.

He's been out of form for a while, struggles to get in the Palace side even after they spent relatively big money on him for a club like theirs.

Ah, that makes sense. He looked well of it.

Cullen had a stinker too. I felt sorry for him.

Cullen seems to be one of those players that most supporters love to hate (me included upon times).

He’s done very little since his move to Palace. I used to enjoy him playing for Spurs. I thought they underrated him significantly.

I’ve always thought that he was the type of player that just looked uninterested, kind of like Jordan Ayew was for us but I don’t know if that reflects how he plays/feels. I’d argue the fact that he wanted to take a penalty shows that he cares. He wasn’t at his best tonight though, I think we might need to look at how we’re using him. I always liked him in the 10 role but it’ll be tough to shift Wilson out of there.

Maybe you've seen him play more times than me but I have read that Palace fans aren't impressed with him.
As far as Wales are concerned we have a limited team/squad so I would expect a player from the Premier to offer more.
Doesn't show enough heart for me.

I'm not blaming him, I just want to know why Bellamy is putting him in midfield.. he put him in against England where it was by far the worst 1st half under Bellamy and tonight for half hour Bosnia cut through us like we were a kids football team.. it's not Cullen's fault Bellamy has put him in unfamiliar circumstances and we've looked the worst under Bellamy when he puts him there
