Wales fans got Craig Bellamy’s players fired up for their World Cup play-off semi-final match with an amazing version of Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau
Wales supporters have done it again, delivering an epic version of the national anthem on a huge night at Cardiff City Stadium.
The Red Wall more than did their part to get Craig Bellamy’s men fired up for their massive World Cup play-off semi-final match against Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Wales are potentially just 180 minutes away from a place at this summer’s World Cup, which is being held in Canada, Mexico and the United States.

Passions and emotions were running high before kick-off in the Welsh capital, with thousands making the pilgrimage from across the country to cheer Bellamy’s charges on in their quest for a place at the competition.
Once again, Wales fans in bucket hats were teed up by an intro track and a lightshow, before being allowed to go it alone with the anthem, and the results were simply spectacular.

The rendition, as ever, was enough to give you goosebumps.
Bellamy was in typical bullish mood ahead of this vital semi-final this evening.
“We’ve done everything we can,” said head coach Bellamy.
“You always feel a lot calmer as it goes along. The more you tick off something, the more you reassure yourself.
“Imagine if you’re going into an exam and you haven’t put the work in and you’re expecting good results to happen. The players have been top and they’re used to this.”
Should Wales beat Bosnia-Herzegovina this evening, they will face either Italy or Northern Ireland in the final.
That game will also be played in the Welsh capital next Tuesday.
