On Monday afternoon it was the big one... Wales vs France in a six-a-side match played in the stifling Qatari heat in Ar-Rayyan.
The game finished 2-1 to the Welsh after an interruption from national broadcaster France News 24 who wanted to grab an interview with supporters that had ventured out to the Middle East to be a part of the controversial festival of football over the next month.
Bristol City supporter Ashton Adams is one of those fortunate enough to watch his country in the biggest and most prestigious tournament of them all. Although, despite his match-winning performance against Les Bleus, he didn't cover himself in glory when interviewed live on French TV.
