Wales Promoted After 4-1 Win Against Iceland

Wales secured promotion to the top tier of the Nations League with a decisive 4-1 victory over Iceland, aided by Turkey's unexpected loss to Montenegro. This win capped an unbeaten six-game campaign for Craig Bellamy's side, who now have a strong chance of securing a World Cup play-off spot if they do not qualify automatically for the 2026 tournament. Liam Cullen, in particular, shone with his first two international goals, while Brennan Johnson and Harry Wilson also contributed to the scoreline. The match began with an early goal from Iceland's Andri Gudjohnsen, but Wales responded robustly to turn the game around. Wales' promotion was confirmed when Montenegro, previously winless in the group, surprisingly defeated Turkey, allowing Wales to overtake them at the top of the group. This sets Wales up to face some of Europe's strongest teams in the next Nations League edition.
