Wales Secures Nations League Promotion with Victory

Wales secured promotion to Nations League A with a decisive 4-1 victory over Iceland, aided by Liam Cullen's first two international goals, as they completed an unbeaten six-game campaign. This win, combined with Turkey's loss to Montenegro, nearly guarantees Wales a play-off spot for the 2026 World Cup. After falling behind to Andri Gudjohnsen's early goal, Wales rallied with a brace from Cullen, followed by goals from Brennan Johnson and Harry Wilson. Under the management of Craig Bellamy, who remains unbeaten in six matches, the team demonstrated resilience after previous struggles, including a disappointing World Cup performance. The victory was also marked by notable changes in the lineup, showcasing Bellamy's willingness to adapt his strategy. Despite the challenging weather conditions in Cardiff, the win provided a hopeful outlook for Wales' future in international football.
