Wales will head into their final Nations League game at home to Poland on Sunday with their survival hopes intact.
Wales’ penultimate game before the World Cup ended in a 2-1 Nations League defeat by Belgium in Brussels.
Wales had been disrupted by injuries with Aaron Ramsey, Ben Davies, Harry Wilson and Joe Allen all missing out. This was the ninth meeting between the two countries over the last decade, with Wales having held their own with two wins, two defeats and four draws in that time. Belgium had seven starters in the side that lost to Wales in the Euro 2016 quarter-finals, including De Bruyne, Thibaut Courtois and skipper Eden Hazard.
De Bruyne soon set up Belgium’s second after 37 minutes, rolling a defender superbly and crossing for Batshuayi to convert the simplest of tap-ins.
