World Cup Qualifying game at the Cardiff City Stadium.

Wales 1-1 Serbia

For me this was two vital points lost.

There are still six games to go but those two dropped points could yet prove costly for Wales.


Chris Coleman leaned back and looked to the sky at full-time. That's three straight draws and they've led in all of them.

Our next match is a win no matter what and it's against top of the table Ireland, away in Ireland on March 24 2016, now that is tough.

Of course football is a funny old game and anything could happen in the next few Qualifying games.

A happy Serbian player

Wales' hopes of qualifying for the 2018 World Cup were dealt a severe blow as Aleksandar Mitrovic's late equaliser for Serbia denied them victory in Cardiff.

Despite a strong start from the visitors, Gareth Bale fired Wales ahead after the tireless Hal Robson-Kanu forced Serbia's Matija Nastasic into a mistake.

An occasionally scrappy but absorbing encounter saw chances at both ends and, just moments after Bale hit the post, Mitrovic headed in to stun the Cardiff City Stadium into silence.

With the Republic of Ireland's win in Austria taking them top of Group D, Serbia and Wales stay second and third - two and four points behind Martin O'Neill's men respectively.

Having drawn their previous two games, it was imperative Wales did not lose more ground on their rivals in a tantalisingly tight group.

And although the draw means Chris Coleman's men remain unbeaten, the four-point gap between them and the Republic of Ireland is a significant one with only one team able to qualify automatically from the group.

It also sets up a mouthwatering match between the two sides in Dublin on 24 March.

Gareth Bale: "Gutted to concede so late on, great performance from the lads, got to keep on fighting!"

Very difficult match but if we hit form we could beat the Irish in Dublin. There are many twists and turns yet to come in this group.

I agree there are always plenty of twists/surprises in football,but we certainly have now made it very hard for ourselves.

Have to win our next 2 games now definitely
