    Fair play. They've been bloomin' marvellous.

    Best performance from a home nation since England vs Netherlands in 96. Possibly the best in my lifetime.

    Brilliant for Wales, they deserve it, and whose to say they can't now make the final, or even win it.

    I wanted them to get proper spanked but well played Wales. They totally deserve this.

    Easy for Savage to say he should be sent off for that afternit has happened, imagine the uproar if he was sent off, Savage would go ballistic. Hate how biased commentators are

    He welsh so he's being a biased fan today, totally forgivable.
    Sounds like he's in tears

    Got 55/1 on Wales 3-1. Only a quid but thought that was great value.

    no idea how they held on for the 10 minutes before the 3rd goal but they did and they did it well, albeit with a bit of help from the ref

    well deserved after a great performance but they're really going to miss Ramsey in the semi, he's been immense this tournament

    Worth noting, for all the inquest into the failings of English football - these boys play in the same League and grew up under the same coaches as the English lads.

    We won the battle but they have trounced us in the war. Coleman has coached Woy off the park. And while Bale has carried his nation's expectations with ease and played like he accepts and wants the responsibility, our star players hid behind sideways passes and pathetic lofted crosses.

    Fair play Wales. I was indifferent about them before this game but they've totally won me over.

    Eden Hazard has been absolutely anonymous tonight. Nevertheless, Wales deserve all the plaudits. Who said Wilmots was a good manager? He's now proven to be worse than Woy and that's saying something!

    Ramsey will be a huge loss. He was immense.

    Joe Allen has pulled out a ridiculous performance.

    Wales had everything that England didn't. Tactics, Team Spirit, Passion, Belief, Energy. Well done they beat Belgium easily

    Don't wanna keep banging on about England but this is exactly what you can get out of average players with the right tactics and spirit. The next manager take note.

    All 3 goalscorers were born in England.

    Normally don't have a lot of time for Wales tbh, but they were fantastic tonight (still can't believe I cheered when the 3rd went in though)

    Ramsey was superb tonight and some class goals!
    Rediscovering my Welsh ancestry!

    Still denying mine, although with Lewis for a middle name and Williams for a surname, it's not easy.

    Too bad they're going out on penalties in the semis.
