After losing to England in the World Cup semifinals, Wales has been torn apart.
With their World Cup performance, Wales allegedly “shamed British football,” according to former Chelsea defender Jason. After losing to England 3-0 on Tuesday, Rob Page’s team left the tournament in Qatar with just one point and one goal.
Wales had not taken part in a World Cup since 1958. Due to a last-minute Gareth Bale penalty, they drew 1-1 with the USA to start their campaign.

However, their Friday setback to Iran left them with a tough road ahead of them to advance from Group B. And it turned out to be an impossible effort because England’s quality shone at Ahmed bin Ali Stadium
In a raging second half from the Three Lions, Marcus Rashford struck twice, one on either side of a goal from Phil Foden. After the game, Cundy gave them a harsh review on talkSPORT and called them the poorest side in the competition.
My God, he exclaimed. When that red dragon attempted to exhale fire, the worst-possible small puff of nothing would emerge from his lips.
“They were embarrassed and sad. I’m afraid they embarrassed British football.
They have been waiting 64 years; there is a reason they haven’t participated in the World Cup, and they came in last place behind Iran. You heard me right, Qatar, the host country.
“They scored the same number of goals as they did, and they outscored Qatar by one point. And Qatar is just present because it is their tournament.
They are by far the poorest team in this event. They have been a complete embarrassment.
Bale left the game at halftime due to a minor hamstring injury. However, Cundy joked that the former Real Madrid great wasn’t even on the field.
Bale, here’s a question for you, Welsh fans listening to this, why didn’t they start Bale? he continued. Why did Bale sit out the entire game? He didn’t play; why? What made him not play?
Bale reiterated following the match that he would still represent his country if asked to do so. I’ll keep working as long as I can and as long as I’m needed, he told the BBC. Obviously, this is a challenging time, but we continue.
In March, our qualifying campaign will begin. We would have loved to stay [at the World Cup] longer, but we go again in March, so we only have a few months to take a break from international football.
