Playing really well in midfield for Ukraine, especially as although Ukraine have some decent players they have few of the type of quality he plays with at City. Mind you, Wales have nobody of that quality and have a semi pro golfer as their talisman, and Scotland were pretty much a Championship standard team.
Everybody outside Wales will want Ukraine to win but it may be too much given the lack of preparation many of them have had.

Lack of prep? This team have had 3 months together I’m led to believe- that’s better than normal sides.
And they’ve been by miles the better team, Wales have really rode their luck.

Maybe the Ukraine based players, but a lot of the squad were with their clubs until a couple of weeks ago, including the eponymous City man.

I'm not sure how anybody could focus on preparing for a football match knowing their families are being terrorised by the poisonous Moscow midget.

Ukraine did well to get this far.
Well done Wales.

"Zinny" lol, how cheesy. Does anyone, I mean absolutely anyone, actually call him that ?
Comical how football fans have this need to call everyone by some naff nickname. I mean, you can't play for Liverpool without a stupid abbreviated nickname that the player and his friends and family don't use, ever.

I'm glad Spurs fans always refer to Mauricio Pochettino using his full name.
