00:00Tuesday night's game against Iceland was always going to be big, and there always needed to
00:06be a big performance to go along with that.
00:09When Wales went 1-0 down just 7 minutes into the game, many fans might have been worried
00:14that it wasn't going to go as planned, but quickly after conceding, Wales found that
00:18extra gear and dug in.
00:21Liam Cullen scored his first and then his second ever goal for Wales to put the team
00:252-0 up a half time, and after a 50-50 first half, the second half was the complete opposite.
00:32While Iceland didn't look particularly poor, they never really looked like scoring and
00:35Wales were allowed to pull away and ended up scoring two more to make it 4-1.
00:40Bellamy's side have been solid for the whole tournament, but look to have that extra level
00:44against Iceland that we haven't seen yet under the new manager.
00:48The performance and the promotion will be a major boost as World Cup qualification begins
00:53next year, with Bellamy and his boys hoping to be on the plane to the States in 2026.
