Wales have reached their first World Cup in more than 60 years after beating Ukraine 1-0 in their play-off final showdown at the Cardiff City Stadium on Sunday.
A 34th-minute own-goal by outgoing West Ham United winger Andriy Yarmolenko was enough to secure Wales' passage to their first World Cup since 1958, breaking Ukrainian hearts in the process. Ukraine had set up the winner-takes-all tie after beating Scotland 3-1 in their rearranged play-off semi-final at Hampden Park on Wednesday.
Wales had beaten Austria 2-1 in their play-off semi-final back in March, meaning they had faced a lengthy wait to try and secure their place in Qatar. Their qualification for the finals means that they have been placed in Group B, joining England, Iran and the USA.
