'Wales don't have more passion than England'
Sven-Göran Eriksson says Wales do not have more passion than England.
Prior to the World Cup, Gareth Bale was asked if he felt Rob Page's men were the most passionate country at the tournament, with the Los Angeles ace saying he believed they were.
However, ahead of the Red Dragons' final group stage match at Qatar 2022 against England on Tuesday night, former Three Lions boss Eriksson says victory would mean more to Wales than the English given their poor record in the fixture.
"England will want to beat Wales, but for Wales, it is a dream to beat England because it almost never happens," he told Midnite. "Wales will be trying to play the game of their life against England as if England is their big brother and they want to impress them.
"Wales don't have more passion than England. If you put an England shirt on, you want to win and you're very keen to perform 100%. Wales will feel that it's more important to win against England than England will feel it is to win."

How that guy pulled Ulrika I'll never know but on Tuesday, I hope we do to England what he liked to do to her.
