Two-goal Aaron Ramsey talks to Sky. “We did what we wanted to do: be on the front foot early in the game, and we managed to do that. It’s not always easy to play against a low block. It’s amazing to be back in front of our home fans. Tuesday’s game will be massive, hopefully we can get another result. Hopefully Gareth Bale will be good to go on Tuesday. I’m not sure but I think his substitution was just a precaution. We’ve had some great battles against Belgium over the years, so hopefully we’ll have another great night here.”

France join Belgium in Qatar next winter, four-goal Kylian Mbappe having put Kazakhstan to the sword. The Netherlands were eight minutes away from joining them, but inexplicably let a two-goal lead slip in Montenegro. They’re still two points clear at the top of Group G, but both Turkey and Norway can now beat them to automatic qualification. Tuesday’s games - Montenegro v Turkey, Netherlands v Norway - promise box-office thrills.

That’s a fine victory for Wales, who are now second in Group E with a three-point and two-goal advantage over the third-placed Czech Republic. Belgium, who travel to Cardiff on Tuesday, have secured their place in Qatar with their win over Estonia. Gareth Bale, now a member of the 100 Club, modestly, bordering on reluctantly, soaks up an ovation from the crowd, forced up front and centre by his happy team-mates. Wales could have another ton-up merchant soon, as well, Rob Page having sent on Wayne Hennessey for Danny Ward with a couple of minutes to go, so he can claim his 98th cap. There’s nice.

Incidentally, there was a lovely moment on 85 minutes in Cardiff, as the crowd paid a warm, heartfelt tribute to the late Gary Speed. The former Wales star won 85 caps for his country, and took charge of his final game as manager ten years ago this week.
