Wales passion could fill a continent, says Coleman
Chris Coleman praised the "tremendous" achievement of his Wales players in finishing top of Group B at Euro 2016, and says that the country's passion for football is enough for an entire continent.
Wales defeated Russia 3-0 in Toulouse to qualify for the last 16 as group winners after England were held to a goalless draw by Slovakia in Saint-Etienne.
