Rob Page admits Wales potentially facing England at the World Cup is “tasty” and reckons he is already getting grief over it.
Wales, whose only World Cup appearance was in 1958, were in the hat for the draw after beating Austria last week in their play-off semi-final. They are now waiting to play either Scotland or Ukraine in June for a place at Qatar. Page stresses the full focus is on that play-off final when Wales have home advantage in Cardiff.
But the Yorkshire-based boss admits it is natural to reflect on the draw and a potential Group B place alongside England, Iran and USA. Page said: “I live in Sheffield and was sat with some England supporters. It was quite tasty when the draw was made. It is a mouth-watering tie but we are not counting our chickens until they’re hatched.
