⚽️ Get ready, footie fans! Wales is heading to Kazakhstan for a crucial World Cup qualifier this Thursday. After that nail-biting 4-3 defeat to Belgium in June, Craig Bellamy’s team is eager to secure another win. Currently standing second in Group J, they’re just one point shy of North Macedonia at the top.
🇰🇿 Kick-off in Kazakhstan’s Astana Arena is set for 3pm UK time. Thanks to the time difference, they’ll be playing a bit later at 7pm local time. It’s a must-watch as Kazakhstan, with only one win against Liechtenstein, are keen to challenge Wales and close the gap in the group standings.

📝 Team news: Wales will be without Leeds’ Ethan Ampadu and skipper Aaron Ramsey. Ramsey hasn’t played much lately, as he’s just getting back to form with his new club in Mexico. Unfortunately, key players like Joe Rodon, Jay Dasilva, and Danny Ward are also out of action for this match.
But here’s some exciting news! Joel Colwill is stepping up to the senior squad for the first time, joined by Tom King and Rhys Norrington-Davies.
It’s a crucial game for Wales in their World Cup journey, especially with a fixture against Belgium looming next month. Let’s rally behind the team and hope they bring those precious points back home! 🏴👊🏼 #WalesFootball #WorldCupQualifiers #TeamWales
