Why are we making such a fuss? Wales is a tiny country. It has about 3 million people. That’s fewer than some cities in China.
For context, England has 56 million people. Germany has 83 million. Wales is the plucky underdog with a big heart and a louder voice.
This is like your quietest friend suddenly winning a karaoke contest. It’s unexpected. It’s glorious. It’s Wales.

The Group Stage Madness
Wales is in Group B. They are playing England. Yes, their big brother. The rivalry is real.
They also face Iran and the USA. It’s not an easy group. But remember: Wales beat Belgium in the Euro 2016 quarter-finals. Belgium was ranked number one in the world at the time.
So yes, anything is possible. Anything.
The USA game is particularly juicy. It’s a clash of accents. Welsh vs. American drawl. Who wins? The viewers, honestly.
