For the first time in history, Wales will be playing in the semifinals of the Euros.

Gareth Bale's side on Friday evening defeated a star-studded Belgium side by 3 goals to 1 to set up a semifinal clash with Portugal.

Radja Nainggolan put Belgium ahead with a thunderous 25-yard strike but Wales captain Ashley Williams headed a corner in to conclude an exciting first half display from both teams.

Minutes into the second half Hal Robson-Kanu, a striker without a club, gave Wales the lead with a divine turn and finish.

Substitute Sam Vokes' header ensured victory after Wales sustained heavy pressure from Belgium in the later stages of the match.

The win ensures a mouth-watering clash between Wales and Portugal, which will ensure a duel between Real Madrid stars Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo.
