Item Number:  5340-1

The great special edition presentation displays an original press photo of the Wales team line up for the photos prior to the UEFA EURO 2016 quarter final match between Wales and Belgium at Stade Pierre-Mauroy on July 1, 2016 in Lille.

It is framed a tasteful black wood surround with a red mount measuring in at a large and impressive 42cm by 36cm (16.5” by 14”).

The plaque reads;

Wales - European Championship Semi-Finalists - 2016 - Wales' remarkable journey to the Semi Final is considered one of the greatest achievements in Welsh sporting history. - Special Edition Presentation.

To qualify for the finals themselves represented a landmark achievement for Wales whose last appearance in the final stages of a major international tournament was in 1958.

Having reached the finals Wales progressed from the group stages as group winners with a superb performance against Russia in the final game of the group.

After a tense victory over Northern Ireland in the last 16, Wales then registered arguably their greatest ever win in the quarter final with a 3-1 win over Belgium, ranked #2 in the World.

Although the dream ended in the semi-final with a 2-0 defeat by a Cristiano Ronaldo inspired Portugal, the Wales squad will return home a national heroes and the 2016 European Championships will forever live in the memory of Welsh football fans.

A superb item of Wales 2016 Euro Memorabilia that would make a great gift.
