That went for Sky Sports' pundits and former Wales internationals Ashley Williams and Danny Gabbidon, too, with the pair donning Wales-themed bucket hats on TV just moments after Rob Page's men secured their place at this year's World Cup in Qatar with a 1-0 win over Ukraine.

As the television cameras cut back to the Sky Sports studio from the action at Cardiff City Stadium, the pair could be seen grinning from ear to ear with the hat which has become the headwear of choice for Welsh football fans.
