Evertonians are famously Welsh so we stand with the Welsh in their hour of test.

On my way to Cardiff, feeling a bit less confident about the outcome than last week.

Whatever happens, the atmosphere will be tip top and as a bonus, there will be no union jacks or bunting at this party.

I don't suppose anyone has a spare ticket?

@davek is just glad it's not Scotland, the bad jockophobe.

Safe journey mate. I would love Wales to win but I certainly wouldn't be upset if Ukraine made the WC.

Over the years I’ve seen many more Wales rugby matches than football matches , but I have to say the crowd at the Cardiff City Stadium have been outstanding in their vocal support. If they once again have Dafydd Iwan singing “ Yma o Hyd “ pre match the atmosphere will be superb . Cymru am Byth!

As an American, Im a bit torn on this one. Honestly, I just want the easiest matchup in the world cup. Scotland(no offense) would have been ideal, and I see Wales as a tough draw as the typically tougher draw of the two, but Ukraine has all the motivation in the world and may be the tougher opponent. While talent is important, this game is so much about effort and motivation that a well coached Ukraine can be scary.

Yes yes yes! I've pm'd you.

The Ukrainian team are wearing shirts with this on the collar:

Translation: 'Glory to the Ukraine, Glory to the Heroes'.......that's a Ukrainian nazi slogan from the Second World War.

How are FIFA allowing that to happen?

Keep politics out od sport.

It makes me want to see good old Wales win even more today...a country that's never done any harm to anyone.

With that Ukraine flapper of a keeper from the other night at one end and Wayne Hennessy at the other this will be 8-8 after 20 minutes.
