When Wales qualified top of their group at Euro 2016, the nation really started to believe.
Then they drew Belgium, and it seemed that Eden Hazard, Romelu Lukaku et al would be too much for them.
One nil down and it looked like the Belgian side were going to storm it – until Ashley Williams decided to step up of course.
From that goal on, the Welsh looked like the better side – and managed to win 3-1, and obviously the internet broke.
One nil down and people were worried…

You don’t need me to confirm TB status on that Nainggolan goal. We all know what that was. Textbook effort.

Step forward Williams..
So rare to see Ashley Williams smile. Normally only see him grimace or hide head in shame after a glaring mistake. Lovely to see him happy

Totally, utterly, completely deserved equaliser for Wales. Great header by Ashley Williams.

Oh, and legend Hal Robson Kanu had his say as well…
Hal come Robson-Kanu hasn't got a club? Certainly put himself in the shop window in this tournament.

Robbie Savage lost the plot…
"Go and wake your kids up…!" wails Robbie Savage. That's a great bit of commentary.

Oh, and the England digs came thick and fast…
Hard work beats talent if talent doesn't work hard. Wales epitomising everything England are not.
