'There are people crying to our right!' Robbie Savage sums up Wales' special night

Wales are on the verge of booking their place in the last 16 of Euro 2020 after a sensational win over Turkey in Baku.

Goals from Aaron Ramsey and Connor Roberts were enough were enough to give Rob Page's men all three points at the Olympic Stadium, a result that means they are now almost certain qualify from Group A.

It's probably just as well, with Wales set to travel to Rome to take on favourites Italy in their final group game on Sunday.

It was a night for Welsh fans to treasure, with BBC pundit and former Wales international Robbie Savage exclaiming "there are people crying to our right", during the latter stages of the game.

There was plenty of emotion from the players too, who once again made a point of thanking the 400 or so members of the Red Wall in attendance, before skipper Gareth Bale took centre-stage as part of a team huddle at full-time, delivering a rousing speech to his delighted team-mates.

Bale was a stand out star for his team, despite missing a second-half penalty, and will no doubt be pivotal to hopes of further progression in this tournament.

The scenes of relief and jubilation at full-time may well live long in the memory for the intrepid few in attendance, and indeed the millions more watching back home.

Wales head to Rome with a chance of booking their place in the next round as group winners, like they did back in 2016.

Many will be no doubt be dreaming that another magical summer is still in store.
