David Brooks quotes in brief We matched them, in the second half we showed a bit more quality As front players we weren't quite good enough in the first half I am working to full sharpness, I was bit tired, started to feel my calf going in the 82nd We attack Wednesday in the same mood as today I am just looking forward , nice to get on the score sheet Looking forward to the Euros, hopefully the fans can be there to cheer us on
Rob Page quotes in brief We gave the ball away cheaply first half, we invited pressure first half We will take the clean sheet, look forward to a big game on Wednesday We have always had a plan B Some players on the grass tomorrow, some won't be Jonny Williams will be assessed again tomorrow, hamstring injury in training, likelihood he will be ok Fully focused for Wednesday now Gareth Bale : so athletic, his heading ability is second to none The change helped us win the game

Rob Page press conference quotes in brief
We've got a fully fit squad Two tough games for us, Two big games for us We know anytime we play the Republic of Ireland its going to be tough The most important game for us know, is tomorrow's game Full focus on this game We are going to pick a team that going to give us the best chance to win a game of football The recovery day and the session we have had today has been brilliant
Ben Davies press conference quotes in brief
We are expecting a tight game, hopefully we can come out of it with 3 points on Gareth Bale - It's great to see him back and in full flow Sooner the better that for us that fans can come back on Josh Sheehan - It's great to see him in this squad, he has been excellent this week on Brennan Johnson - He has worked hard, and thoroughly deserved his debut, he looks like a very promising young player I don't think we have been at our best in the Nations League group, but we have 3 wins
