Wales Aims for Euro 2028 Qualification After World Cup Setback

Ian Rush has stated that Wales must learn from their recent World Cup play-off semi-final loss to Bosnia and Herzegovina as they aim to qualify for Euro 2028. The team has not won in four matches this year and missed out on the 2026 World Cup after a penalty shootout defeat in March.

Wales faces a challenging schedule in the Nations League A, with upcoming matches against Portugal, Norway, and Denmark. Rush expressed confidence in Craig Bellamy's ability to lead the national team to success, despite the tough competition ahead.

Several Welsh players have made moves during the summer transfer window, including goalkeeper Karl Darlow joining Manchester United and Harry Wilson transferring to Leeds. Wales' Nations League campaign begins against Portugal in Lisbon on September 24, followed by matches against Denmark and Norway.
