0:00:08 > 0:00:13- Gary Speed was appointed as the - Wales manager in December 2010.

0:00:13 > 0:00:16- The former captain - was a popular choice...

0:00:16 > 0:00:20- ..but some were sceptical - because of his lack of experience.

0:00:20 > 0:00:23- He'd only started his - first managerial job...

0:00:23 > 0:00:26- ..with Sheffield United - four months earlier.

0:00:27 > 0:00:31- But the FAW was certain that Speed - could transform the national side.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35- His first step was to transform - the coaching team.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38- Dutchman Raymond Verheijen - came to Wales...

0:00:39 > 0:00:41- ..and he was joined - by Osian Roberts.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44- Everything felt more - professional somehow...

0:00:45 > 0:00:49- ..and within a short period - the results began to improve.

0:00:52 > 0:00:56- And by the time Wales played Norway - in a friendly in November 2011...

0:00:57 > 0:01:00- ..the sport in our country had - a smile on its face once again.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04- But this game would be - remembered...

0:01:04 > 0:01:07- ..for very different reasons - in the end.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16- Wales against Norway.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19- It might be a friendly but - they're all important games...

0:01:19 > 0:01:21- ..for Gary Speed's team - at the moment.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28- After such a disappointing period, - the Dragons have awoken.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32- The nightmare is a distant memory - and the dream is alive.

0:01:32 > 0:01:36- The target for Gary Speed and Wales - is not the Olympic Games...

0:01:36 > 0:01:39- ..but the biggest stage - of them all - the World Cup.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42- The supporters aren't thinking - of gold medals...

0:01:42 > 0:01:44- ..but the golden beaches of Brazil.

0:01:44 > 0:01:48- There's a momentum and confidence - within the Wales squad...

0:01:48 > 0:01:51- ..and it's important that - that continues.

0:01:53 > 0:01:54- Norway are the opponents.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57- They haven't had much luck - themselves...

0:01:57 > 0:02:00- ..on the international stage - in the main competitions...

0:02:00 > 0:02:03- ..during the last decade.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06- Wales are hoping their luck - is about to change.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09- He's a much happier manager - these days.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20- Hennessey with a huge kick.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22- Looking for Morison.

0:02:22 > 0:02:26- Aaron Ramsey leaves it. Is there an - early opportunity for Joe Allen?

0:02:26 > 0:02:28- It's a corner to Wales. - A good start.

0:02:29 > 0:02:30- Yes, half a chance there.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33- Steve Morison creating problems - in the air again.

0:02:33 > 0:02:37- The ball bounced awkwardly. - A good first touch from Joe Allen.

0:02:37 > 0:02:41- He just failed to get the shot in - to make the goalkeeper work...

0:02:42 > 0:02:43- ..but he's won a corner.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48- Plenty of red shirts in the middle.

0:02:49 > 0:02:52- The corner caused problems...

0:02:52 > 0:02:55- ..from Gareth Bale's - colourful boots.

0:03:00 > 0:03:04- Wales on the attack right - at the start of the game...

0:03:04 > 0:03:06- ..with these corners.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09- Everything helps to keep - the confidence going.

0:03:09 > 0:03:12- Bale and Bellamy combining.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15- There was half a chance for - Aaron Ramsey. A chance for Wales!

0:03:15 > 0:03:17- Andrew Crofts going for goal.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21- A great start for Wales. - Andrew Crofts with the volley.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23- It's a difficult skill.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25- It comes to him and nobody - closes him down.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28- A corner kick and when - it came to him here...

0:03:29 > 0:03:31- ..he had plenty of time - to control the volley.

0:03:32 > 0:03:33- It's so early in the game...

0:03:34 > 0:03:38- ..but he knows he should have - hit the target at least.

0:03:38 > 0:03:42- Andrew Crofts starting his fourth - consecutive game.

0:03:47 > 0:03:51- Darcy Blake and Morison. - On towards Bale.

0:03:53 > 0:03:56- For half a second, there was half - a chance for Gareth Bale...

0:03:56 > 0:04:00- ..to use his pace, - and that's the obvious threat.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09- There was the odd voice...

0:04:09 > 0:04:12- ..and the odd "boo" - around the stadium...

0:04:12 > 0:04:14- ..when the ball went - towards Gareth Bale.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19- It's not nice to hear that, - but there was a suggestion...

0:04:19 > 0:04:22- ..that maybe some of the supporters - aren't happy...

0:04:23 > 0:04:26- ..after everything that's been in - the media in the last few weeks...

0:04:27 > 0:04:30- ..about him representing - Britain in the Olympic Games.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32- Tettey for Norway.

0:04:34 > 0:04:36- No problem for Ashley Williams...

0:04:36 > 0:04:38- ..the Swansea City - central defender.

0:04:40 > 0:04:43- A good tempo from Wales at the - beginning of this game.

0:04:43 > 0:04:47- They're familiar now - with the style of play. 4-3-3.

0:04:47 > 0:04:52- It's more like 4-2-4 - when we're attacking.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58- Morison was asking the referee - whether he was fouled.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05- Gary Speed and his assistant - Raymond Verheijen...

0:05:06 > 0:05:08- ..keeping a close eye on it all.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11- Crofts.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15- The deepest lying player - in midfield.

0:05:15 > 0:05:19- Adam Matthews starting the game - in the left-back position...

0:05:19 > 0:05:21- ..because of that injury - to Neil Taylor.

0:05:23 > 0:05:27- Blake looking for Morison. Wales - willing to take the direct route.

0:05:27 > 0:05:29- A great header towards Bellamy.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32- Plenty of white shirts back.

0:05:33 > 0:05:37- But the red shirts have the ball. - That's the important thing.

0:05:37 > 0:05:39- A mistake by Joe Allen.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43- That's a very rare thing - these days.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46- But it doesn't cause problems - for Wales.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57- Darcy Blake out on the field - in Cardiff.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00- That doesn't happen very - often these days either.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05- Darcy Blake's last match was - the last time Wales played...

0:06:06 > 0:06:09- ..in Bulgaria and he had to leave - the field in the first half...

0:06:09 > 0:06:13- ..because of an injury and he - hasn't played for Cardiff since.

0:06:14 > 0:06:19- A little slip by John Arne Riise, - which amused the Welsh supporters.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21- It's John Arne Riise's 100th cap.

0:06:21 > 0:06:25- He's only the third Norwegian - player to reach that milestone.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37- We'll have to wait and see - if Bellamy and Riise...

0:06:37 > 0:06:40- ..end up on the same wing - during the game.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43- They were teammates at Liverpool - and there was an incident...

0:06:44 > 0:06:47- ..in the Algarve a few years ago - involving a golf club.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49- But Riise said this week - that all was forgotten.

0:06:50 > 0:06:53- They have started - on opposite wings.

0:06:53 > 0:06:57- But I'm sure if Bellamy goes over - to his old friend at some point...

0:06:57 > 0:06:59- ..he'll say hello!

0:07:00 > 0:07:03- They're about a sand wedge apart - at the moment!

0:07:03 > 0:07:05- Bellamy is now back at Liverpool.

0:07:06 > 0:07:11- It's a great move for Craig Bellamy - and for Liverpool, to be fair.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15- Crofts.

0:07:15 > 0:07:19- Wales are being patient, but Ashley - Williams has no time to pause.

0:07:19 > 0:07:23- Bellamy trying to take advantage - and keep the move going.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31- Brede Hangeland for Norway.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33- The captain.

0:07:36 > 0:07:40- He plays for Fulham in the - English Premier League.

0:07:40 > 0:07:44- There was a foul against Wales. - Not much in it.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00- Hangeland again for Norway.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03- He was looking for Huseklepp.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06- But Bale has it.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08- He went past one player - as if he wasn't there.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11- The referee almost got - in Aaron Ramsey's way.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15- But it doesn't stop Wales. - Bellamy. Ramsey.

0:08:15 > 0:08:19- There's so much talent in - Wales' team and as I say that...

0:08:19 > 0:08:22- ..the pass from Ramsey goes - straight to John Arne Riise.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25- He must have heard me praising!

0:08:28 > 0:08:31- Wales are trying to play - in Norway's half.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33- It's just that final pass - at the moment.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36- It needs to be a little bit better.

0:08:46 > 0:08:51- Adam Matthews is enjoying his - football with Celtic this season.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54- Celtic aren't having the best - of times in the league...

0:08:54 > 0:08:57- ..but Adam Matthews is playing - in the team regularly now...

0:08:58 > 0:09:00- ..after moving to Scotland - from Cardiff.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02- That was a loose pass - by a player...

0:09:02 > 0:09:05- ..who's still at Cardiff, - Darcy Blake.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09- Jenssen to Pedersen.

0:09:11 > 0:09:14- A chance for Norway to enjoy - some possession.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16- John Arne Riise.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20- He's got a wonderful left foot. - That pass was perfect.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24- But the pass by Ruud - wasn't quite as good.

0:09:24 > 0:09:27- You can see what Norway - are trying to do.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31- They're trying to pull the Welsh - players to one side of the field...

0:09:31 > 0:09:34- ..and then use Riise's left foot...

0:09:36 > 0:09:37- ..or Pedersen...

0:09:37 > 0:09:41- ..to play that cross-field ball - to the other side...

0:09:41 > 0:09:44- ..where Wales don't have - the same balance.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46- Morison knew what was coming.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50- And it's a free-kick to Wales.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02- It's a free-kick in a dangerous - position. Bellamy is over it.

0:10:06 > 0:10:08- The referee's having a little word.

0:10:09 > 0:10:11- Ashley Williams, Steve Morison.

0:10:12 > 0:10:15- Gareth Bale is also dangerous - in the air.

0:10:15 > 0:10:19- Wales have plenty of options.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21- What will Bellamy do?

0:10:21 > 0:10:26- It was in towards Ramsey and the - captain tried to head it backwards.

0:10:26 > 0:10:30- It was one of those free-kicks with - enough power on it from Bellamy...

0:10:31 > 0:10:34- ..and the slightest touch - was needed here from Ramsey.

0:10:35 > 0:10:36- He saw it very late.

0:10:37 > 0:10:41- You just expected him to use - the power from the free-kick...

0:10:41 > 0:10:43- ..to direct it towards the goal.

0:10:45 > 0:10:48- Five goals for Wales so far - for Aaron Ramsey.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53- Every time Aaron Ramsey has scored, - Wales have won.

0:10:53 > 0:10:57- Let's hope that record continues - for many years to come.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10- Blake to Williams.

0:11:12 > 0:11:16- Considering Darcy Blake's - performances for Wales...

0:11:16 > 0:11:20- ..it's surprising he doesn't get - more opportunities at Cardiff.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23- Many people have said he may have - to consider leaving.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26- Well, he'll definitely have - to consider leaving...

0:11:26 > 0:11:29- ..and move on to pastures new.

0:11:34 > 0:11:36- There's good partnership - developing...

0:11:37 > 0:11:39- ..between him and - Ashley Williams.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42- I wonder if anyone - at the Liberty Stadium...

0:11:42 > 0:11:44- ..would enquire - about Darcy Blake.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47- Wales need to defend here. - Tettey with the back-heel.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50- An early opportunity for Norway - to test the defence.

0:11:51 > 0:11:52- Plenty back there for Wales.

0:11:53 > 0:11:55- Adam Matthews, the young defender, - was one of them.

0:11:56 > 0:11:57- Ramsey back to Bellamy.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00- Three players who have represented - Cardiff City.

0:12:02 > 0:12:05- Wales having to defend - strongly there.

0:12:05 > 0:12:08- There are too many gaps - in midfield.

0:12:08 > 0:12:13- Wales are not using possession - with any purpose at the moment.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19- Morison trying to compete.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24- He loses possession. - It's back with Matthews again.

0:12:24 > 0:12:27- He's been prominent during - the first few minutes.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29- The pass reaches Bale. - Morison on towards Bale.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32- Gareth Bale is clear. - On his left foot!

0:12:32 > 0:12:36- Gareth Bale strikes again - for Wales!

0:12:38 > 0:12:40- For the third consecutive game.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44- The love is flowing from the - stands on to the field...

0:12:44 > 0:12:46- ..towards Gareth Bale...

0:12:46 > 0:12:49- ..and towards the Welsh team, - who lead Norway 1-0.

0:12:50 > 0:12:53- It was just what we needed, - just at the right time.

0:12:53 > 0:12:57- A great ball by Morison - back to Ramsey.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00- No, it was Ramsey who gave him - the ball to start with.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03- Nobody was going to stop that. - What a goal!

0:13:03 > 0:13:06- Power. He made sure - he hit the target.

0:13:06 > 0:13:09- It was a difficult angle. - He couldn't go across goal.

0:13:10 > 0:13:12- He went for the near post.

0:13:12 > 0:13:16- The goalkeeper was at fault a - little. He didn't stand up strong.

0:13:16 > 0:13:19- But I'm not taking anything away - from this man.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21- What a goal for Wales.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25- It's his sixth consecutive start...

0:13:25 > 0:13:29- ..and as I said earlier, he's now - scored for three games in a row.

0:13:29 > 0:13:32- He's a star for Spurs - in the Premier League.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37- And he carries Welsh hopes.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41- If you thought the headlines - about Team GB had quietened...

0:13:41 > 0:13:44- ..I think they'll be back - next week.

0:13:48 > 0:13:50- Crofts to Gunter.

0:13:52 > 0:13:54- Back to Crofts.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56- Despite the lack of pattern...

0:13:56 > 0:13:58- ..there were gaps in midfield - as you said...

0:13:58 > 0:14:01- ..but there's a different feeling - about this team now.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04- There's no doubt they're - on the same wavelength.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06- That's important for any team.

0:14:06 > 0:14:09- They know their positions - and the style of play.

0:14:09 > 0:14:13- That is the strong foundation - we have in this Wales team.

0:14:13 > 0:14:17- They all love the style...

0:14:17 > 0:14:20- ..the shape of the team - and the formation.

0:14:20 > 0:14:23- They keep the ball, keep - possession, they're patient...

0:14:24 > 0:14:26- ..and then they produce something - at the end of it.

0:14:27 > 0:14:29- There's a purpose - to everything we do.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32- They're going from one side - of the pitch to the other.

0:14:32 > 0:14:34- Keeping possession.

0:14:34 > 0:14:37- Morison again. - He works so hard for Wales.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40- He's slightly isolated.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42- He's now looking towards goal.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45- Matthews. Ramsey's there. - Is there a chance for Ramsey?

0:14:46 > 0:14:47- He goes down. He's not happy.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50- You get the feeling - he was looking for that.

0:14:50 > 0:14:52- He referee gives him a warning.

0:14:52 > 0:14:57- It was definitely a foul but I - think it was just outside the box.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01- He completely fooled the player - he was up against.

0:15:04 > 0:15:08- You have to wonder why the referee - didn't give the free-kick.

0:15:08 > 0:15:11- Aaron Ramsey could have - carried on with his run...

0:15:11 > 0:15:15- ..if he hadn't been brought down, - that's what I'm trying to say.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20- They tell you not to pass the ball - across the back...

0:15:20 > 0:15:23- ..across the box, but that's - what Adam Matthews did.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25- Thankfully, it reached Darcy Blake.

0:15:25 > 0:15:28- The Wales captain, Aaron Ramsey, - to Crofts.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33- The Welsh players have so much - faith in each other.

0:15:34 > 0:15:36- They all believe in each other.

0:15:40 > 0:15:44- I think it's time to start - counting these passes.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47- Wales are having so much - possession.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51- And there's an end product. - They've scored.

0:15:51 > 0:15:55- It's not a matter of keeping - the ball but not threatening.

0:15:57 > 0:15:58- Morison again.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00- Morison again.- - Excellent.

0:16:00 > 0:16:02- Bellamy is in the middle now.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06- He's moved into the centre from - the wing, exchanging positions.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09- Ramsey looks for Bellamy. - It almost reached Bale.

0:16:09 > 0:16:12- Norway doing just enough for now...

0:16:12 > 0:16:15- ..to stop the red tide.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18- Ramsey offered himself.

0:16:18 > 0:16:20- Matthews didn't see the pass.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24- Crofts does see Gunter.

0:16:24 > 0:16:25- Excellent.

0:16:26 > 0:16:27- Joe Allen and Gunter combining.

0:16:28 > 0:16:31- From the under-21 side - to the senior team.

0:16:31 > 0:16:33- They are very familiar - with each other.

0:16:33 > 0:16:37- Seven have come through - from the under-21 squad.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42- That's a strength in itself.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47- Ramsey. Joe Allen. Gunter.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52- We're hardly mentioning the - Norwegian players at the moment.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55- Crofts. He's confident enough - to turn.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58- He has support. The right-back - Gunter towards Bale.

0:16:59 > 0:17:03- Bale's first touch wasn't - quite good enough.

0:17:03 > 0:17:06- We haven't said that very often.

0:17:06 > 0:17:10- Gareth Bale's first touch meant - the ball just got away from him.

0:17:19 > 0:17:22- Crofts leaves the ball to Bellamy.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24- Bellamy has plenty of room - in front of him.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27- There are other red shirts - arriving. Matthews.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29- But Bellamy's going on himself!

0:17:29 > 0:17:33- Craig Bellamy for Wales! - It's wonderful from Bellamy!

0:17:33 > 0:17:37- It's wonderful from Wales! - It's 2-0!

0:17:37 > 0:17:41- He hasn't scored for seven games, - but he's scored now.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44- Wales 2, Norway 0.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46- What a goal from Wales.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49- There were around eight - consecutive passes.

0:17:49 > 0:17:53- Bellamy. Matthews did well - to take a man with him.

0:17:53 > 0:17:57- Bellamy still had a lot to do, - but he's good enough.

0:17:57 > 0:18:00- How many times have we - seen him curl those...

0:18:00 > 0:18:03- ..into the corner of the net - with power and accuracy?

0:18:03 > 0:18:06- It's a difficult skill, - but he makes it look so easy.

0:18:07 > 0:18:08- 2-0!

0:18:15 > 0:18:19- 19 goals for Wales now - for Craig Bellamy.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23- He's fifth in the list - of Wales' top scorers.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26- He's getting closer - to Dean Saunders.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29- There are three goals in it now.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33- No smile from Gary Speed.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35- He should be smiling.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37- He must be smiling inside.

0:18:37 > 0:18:39- Everyone watching - is smiling anyway.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42- It's a better feeling sometimes, - inside.

0:18:43 > 0:18:46- Plenty of time to go though, - that's what he'll be thinking.

0:18:50 > 0:18:54- I doubt Norway were expecting this - this afternoon in Cardiff.

0:18:54 > 0:18:58- Some people have been taking notice - of what Wales have been doing...

0:18:58 > 0:19:02- ..during the last few months, - but not everyone...

0:19:02 > 0:19:04- ..has appreciated the change - in this team.

0:19:05 > 0:19:08- Where are Norway ranked - in the world? 24th?

0:19:08 > 0:19:12- Well, we're holding them, - believe me.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14- 24th in the world. - Wales are ranked 45th.

0:19:15 > 0:19:18- They've moved up 45 places - from 90th.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21- They were 117th back in August.

0:19:22 > 0:19:26- They'll be top before long! - That's how it works, isn't it?!

0:19:26 > 0:19:29- Norway came into the game having - won four of their last five.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33- Wales, three out of four.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36- But it's the potential of the team.

0:19:36 > 0:19:38- We're only just starting - to see the fruits now...

0:19:39 > 0:19:41- ..of what Gary Speed - did at the beginning.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45- The important point for me is, he's - getting the best out of them.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48- They've got the style - and they work from that.

0:19:49 > 0:19:52- He's getting the best out - the players' abilities.

0:19:58 > 0:20:02- Potential is a big word. They need - to fulfil that potential.

0:20:02 > 0:20:07- And at last, you get the feeling - that Wales are about to do that.

0:20:10 > 0:20:14- It's only a friendly. The real - hard work begins next year.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19- But momentum is also a big word.

0:20:20 > 0:20:22- When Wales have that - and they have confidence...

0:20:23 > 0:20:25- ..they look extremely dangerous.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28- The big difference I've seen - recently is the tempo...

0:20:28 > 0:20:30- ..and the way we start matches.

0:20:30 > 0:20:32- We settle after scoring - an early goal.

0:20:34 > 0:20:37- They're playing with Norway - at the moment.

0:20:37 > 0:20:40- The ole's are ringing around - the Cardiff City Stadium...

0:20:40 > 0:20:42- ..in the sunshine.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44- The supporters are - enjoying themselves.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47- A defensive mistake. - It's out for a corner.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51- Norway are in pieces. They don't - know what's happening.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54- I'm joining in with them. Ole!

0:20:54 > 0:20:57- You look like someone from Mexico - with that suntan, Malcolm!

0:21:11 > 0:21:14- The scorer of the second goal, - Craig Bellamy...

0:21:14 > 0:21:19- ..will try and create another - opportunity from the corner.

0:21:20 > 0:21:22- Bellamy curls it in. - Hangeland clears.

0:21:24 > 0:21:26- Joe Allen competing.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30- We haven't seen much - of Joe Allen so far...

0:21:30 > 0:21:32- ..but he's doing the - hard work in midfield.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36- Grindheim, who plays - for Copenhagen.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38- The pass forward.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41- Jenssen. Pedersen.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46- Pedersen has so much experience - in the Premier League...

0:21:46 > 0:21:48- ..with Blackburn Rovers.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50- Darcy Blake with a good header. - It needed to be.

0:21:51 > 0:21:52- Bellamy back to Blake.

0:21:58 > 0:22:02- Wales once again passing - their way out of defence.

0:22:03 > 0:22:05- We've seen Aaron Ramsey do that - with Arsenal.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08- We haven't seen him do it - so often with Wales.

0:22:10 > 0:22:14- So much movement and ideas. - Wales are too quick.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16- They're willing to - interchange positions.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19- They're all comfortable - receiving the ball to feet.

0:22:20 > 0:22:22- They keep the ball moving.

0:22:26 > 0:22:29- They look as if they're enjoying - themselves as well.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32- How many times have we said - that in the past?

0:22:32 > 0:22:35- But recently, there's been a smile - on their faces.

0:22:35 > 0:22:39- It's much easier to express your - ability out on the pitch...

0:22:39 > 0:22:42- ..when you're enjoying yourself.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45- A touch for Wayne Hennessey...

0:22:45 > 0:22:48- ..following a very disappointing - pass from Ruben Jenssen.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54- Egil Olsen, the Norway manager.

0:22:55 > 0:22:58- His hair is turning whiter - during the game!

0:22:58 > 0:23:00- This is his second period - in charge.

0:23:00 > 0:23:05- He was in charge back in 1994 - when Norway came to Cardiff.

0:23:06 > 0:23:10- It was during John Toshack's - first period as Wales manager.

0:23:10 > 0:23:13- He didn't last very long. - It was just one game.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17- But John Toshack also came back.

0:23:17 > 0:23:21- You talk about potential and - Toshack said from the start...

0:23:21 > 0:23:23- ..how much potential - this team had...

0:23:23 > 0:23:27- ..and that someone else would - benefit from the work he did.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29- Is it a fair point?

0:23:29 > 0:23:31- He was telling the truth. - We can see it now.

0:23:32 > 0:23:35- But the concern was that we'd never - get he best out of the players.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37- That's what we weren't getting.

0:23:38 > 0:23:41- We talk about passion, - commitment and respect...

0:23:41 > 0:23:43- ..and the pride in playing - for your country.

0:23:43 > 0:23:48- These players are showing - every aspect of that.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52- A strong run by Huseklepp.

0:23:52 > 0:23:55- Gareth Bale was back there - to stop Grindheim.

0:23:57 > 0:24:01- Huseklepp again. Back to Ruud. - He plays his football in Denmark.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03- A good run by Espen Ruud.

0:24:03 > 0:24:08- The cross doesn't cause too many - problems for Wayne Hennessey.

0:24:16 > 0:24:18- Let's take a look. - Wonderful skill.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21- It was outside the penalty area, - but it was certainly a foul.

0:24:21 > 0:24:24- Why else would he have - stopped his run?

0:24:24 > 0:24:28- He was into the penalty area and he - would have had a strike on goal.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30- It was Jenssen who fouled him.

0:24:30 > 0:24:34- No wonder Ramsey was so unhappy - with the Austrian referee.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41- Morison is up strongly.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46- He's working hard as well.

0:24:46 > 0:24:49- Norway aren't getting - any time on the ball.

0:24:49 > 0:24:52- It was a foul by Morison, - according to the referee.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55- Yes. Steve will put himself about, - that's for sure.

0:24:57 > 0:25:00- That was the first header - he's lost and he conceded the foul.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09- Hangeland, the Norway captain, - trying to lift his team.

0:25:09 > 0:25:12- Pedersen. Two familiar names - from the Premier League.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14- Adam Matthews.

0:25:16 > 0:25:18- Ramsey is so confident on the ball - at the moment.

0:25:18 > 0:25:20- So comfortable on the ball too.

0:25:20 > 0:25:23- The captain is at the centre - of everything.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26- Joe Allen was strong.

0:25:29 > 0:25:32- The star of the show for the Swans - these days, Joe Allen.

0:25:34 > 0:25:35- Craig Bellamy.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40- Crofts is also enjoying life in - the Premier League with Norwich.

0:25:44 > 0:25:47- There are nine Norwegian players - behind the ball at the moment.

0:25:48 > 0:25:49- 10, now.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51- To try and stop Wales.

0:25:51 > 0:25:55- And Wales are still providing - options for the man on the ball.

0:25:55 > 0:25:57- They're 10 or 15 yards - from each other.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59- Little triangles in midfield.

0:25:59 > 0:26:02- There's a purpose and the passing - can then continue.

0:26:03 > 0:26:07- Keep the ball, be patient - and wait for the gap to emerge.

0:26:07 > 0:26:10- Then get the ball through to - players like Gareth Bale.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15- Joe Allen keeps the move going.

0:26:15 > 0:26:17- Gunter to Ramsey.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20- Ramsey was very ambitious and - it was a disappointing pass.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23- Espen Ruud for Norway.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27- Jenssen. A run from midfield.

0:26:27 > 0:26:29- But Darcy Blake got there first.

0:26:29 > 0:26:33- Craig Bellamy. And now Morrison - is clear. He's not offside.

0:26:35 > 0:26:37- He's pushed towards the corner.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40- The support is slow in arriving - so Morison tries to go himself.

0:26:43 > 0:26:46- It will come straight back. - No rest for Norway.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49- Crofts. Ramsey is on the edge - of the box once again.

0:26:49 > 0:26:52- Another lovely little touch - from Aaron Ramsey.

0:26:55 > 0:26:57- Norway showed too much of the ball - to Matthews...

0:26:58 > 0:27:00- ..but it was a disappointing tackle - by Matthews.

0:27:02 > 0:27:04- Huseklepp of Portsmouth.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06- To Jenssen.

0:27:06 > 0:27:09- Tettey, who plays in France - for Rennes.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11- And John Arne Riise.

0:27:12 > 0:27:16- A very familiar face to - football supporters in Britain.

0:27:16 > 0:27:17- Jenssen.

0:27:17 > 0:27:20- A good move by Norway - comes to nothing...

0:27:20 > 0:27:22- ..thanks to Darcy Blake.

0:27:22 > 0:27:25- As you said, he hasn't - played for Cardiff...

0:27:25 > 0:27:28- ..since the last time he - represented Wales.

0:27:28 > 0:27:32- But you'd never be able to tell, - the way he's started this game.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36- His partnership with Ashley - Williams is developing every game.

0:27:38 > 0:27:42- Cardiff have played seven games - since Wales played in Bulgaria.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44- Darcy Blake hasn't played.

0:27:44 > 0:27:47- He's started the last four matches - for Wales.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49- Five in a row now.

0:27:52 > 0:27:54- Pedersen for Blackburn.

0:27:54 > 0:27:57- For Blackburn?! For Norway. - I apologize.

0:27:59 > 0:28:01- Although, Blackburn - may as well be here!

0:28:01 > 0:28:04- Blake across again. - He wins the tackle.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10- He doesn't concede a corner either. - He has given away possession.

0:28:10 > 0:28:13- But Norway have to go backwards - into their own half.

0:28:15 > 0:28:16- Ruud.

0:28:19 > 0:28:20- Huseklepp.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23- Tettey again.

0:28:24 > 0:28:26- A period of possession for Norway.

0:28:28 > 0:28:30- Hangeland.

0:28:30 > 0:28:32- Fulham's huge defender.

0:28:32 > 0:28:34- He's also the captain.

0:28:34 > 0:28:36- John Arne Riise, also of Fulham.

0:28:37 > 0:28:39- Once again, that left foot - produces a masterpiece.

0:28:40 > 0:28:41- A lovely pass.

0:28:41 > 0:28:43- Matthews was back to stop - Huseklepp.

0:28:46 > 0:28:51- Ruud. We're seeing more of - Huseklepp from Portsmouth now.

0:28:51 > 0:28:53- He gets past Matthews. - Past Crofts as well.

0:28:53 > 0:28:55- He wins a throw-in.

0:28:56 > 0:28:58- Yes and Wales having to defend.

0:28:59 > 0:29:03- Adam Matthews stayed on his feet - and stopped the cross coming in.

0:29:04 > 0:29:07- That's his job as a defender.

0:29:07 > 0:29:10- He was close enough to - make sure that happened.

0:29:13 > 0:29:16- Norway having a bit more luck - down the right side.

0:29:16 > 0:29:19- Wales' left side. - But not that much luck.

0:29:19 > 0:29:22- It's been a quiet afternoon - for Wayne Hennessey.

0:29:22 > 0:29:28- Which has not been the case for - Jarstein in the visitors' goal.

0:29:31 > 0:29:33- Alexander Tettey.

0:29:35 > 0:29:37- More room again for Erik Huseklepp.

0:29:37 > 0:29:40- He's seeing a lot of - the ball at the moment.

0:29:40 > 0:29:42- Is there an opportunity for Norway?

0:29:43 > 0:29:45- They've hit the post! - What a shot that was.

0:29:45 > 0:29:48- Abdellaoue with the shot. - He's scored three in three.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50- It was almost four.

0:29:50 > 0:29:52- Nobody closed the ball down.

0:29:52 > 0:29:54- That was some shot.

0:29:57 > 0:29:59- Mohammed Abdellaoue.

0:30:00 > 0:30:02- He plays in Germany.

0:30:04 > 0:30:07- Showing why he deserves his place - in the Norwegian side.

0:30:10 > 0:30:14- The message from the sidelines - from Gary Speed? Discipline.

0:30:14 > 0:30:16- Keep your discipline.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21- After taking the lead early on...

0:30:23 > 0:30:25- ..they need to keep things going.

0:30:28 > 0:30:31- The only real threat to - Wales' goal was that shot.

0:30:31 > 0:30:34- But it was a warning, - if one was needed.

0:30:36 > 0:30:38- Another warning is about to arrive.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40- A chance for Riise to cross.

0:30:40 > 0:30:43- Joe Allen was in the right place.

0:30:43 > 0:30:46- The ball is at the feet - of Gareth Bale.

0:30:46 > 0:30:50- I'm not sure even Gareth Bale knows - what's going to happen next...

0:30:50 > 0:30:51- ..when this happens.

0:30:52 > 0:30:53- It's a throw-in.

0:30:56 > 0:30:58- This was some shot by Abdellaoue.

0:30:58 > 0:31:02- Look, nobody closed him down - and he hits the post.

0:31:03 > 0:31:05- Nobody was following it in.

0:31:05 > 0:31:09- He's scored three in three - so he's full of confidence.

0:31:14 > 0:31:18- Adam Matthews' pass was a little - loose but it is a Welsh throw.

0:31:20 > 0:31:23- Things must be going well - because Craig Bellamy...

0:31:23 > 0:31:27- ..didn't complain about - that pass from Matthews!

0:31:27 > 0:31:32- Joe Allen in plenty of space - near the penalty area.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37- Aaron Ramsey slows things down.

0:31:37 > 0:31:40- Crofts is always an option - in midfield...

0:31:40 > 0:31:43- ..whether he's in a - defensive position...

0:31:43 > 0:31:45- ..or as a link to the attack.

0:31:48 > 0:31:50- Blake's touch was a little heavy.

0:31:52 > 0:31:55- Wales have lost possession - as a result. Tettey in midfield.

0:31:57 > 0:31:58- Hangeland.

0:32:00 > 0:32:02- Waehler.

0:32:05 > 0:32:07- Huseklepp is again an option - for Norway.

0:32:07 > 0:32:11- Support arriving. - But Matthews does his job.

0:32:11 > 0:32:14- Matthews does his job in the end, - but it was his fault.

0:32:14 > 0:32:17- He's overprotective at times.

0:32:17 > 0:32:22- He allows the ball to come out to - this right side too easily.

0:32:25 > 0:32:27- A sign of his age maybe? - He's 19-years-old.

0:32:27 > 0:32:31- Yes, but he's played at left-back - for Celtic...

0:32:31 > 0:32:34- ..for six consecutive games.

0:32:34 > 0:32:37- The last six games. - He should know better.

0:32:37 > 0:32:40- That's all I'm saying.

0:32:40 > 0:32:44- John Arne Riise prepares - to launch a long throw.

0:32:44 > 0:32:46- Pedersen with the touch on.

0:32:46 > 0:32:51- Morison was there for Wales. - They didn't look too awake there.

0:32:57 > 0:32:59- John Arne Riise has stayed there.

0:33:00 > 0:33:02- There's no towel here, - like some clubs use.

0:33:02 > 0:33:05- So he uses his shirt - to wipe the ball.

0:33:05 > 0:33:07- The throw just as effective.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09- Back into the middle.

0:33:09 > 0:33:15- Ashley Williams rising. They're - a little uncertain at the moment.

0:33:15 > 0:33:18- Abdellaoue again winning possession - from Gareth Bale.

0:33:19 > 0:33:22- Across came Gunter. - That's a foul on Chris Gunter.

0:33:23 > 0:33:24- A free-kick to Wales.

0:33:26 > 0:33:29- Wales need to settle - things down again.

0:33:30 > 0:33:31- Just keep possession.

0:33:33 > 0:33:36- Norway have come back into the - game in the last five minutes.

0:33:38 > 0:33:41- And the last five minutes will - remind the players and the fans...

0:33:42 > 0:33:45- ..and everyone watching - not to lose their heads.

0:33:45 > 0:33:48- Things are looking promising - for Wales...

0:33:48 > 0:33:51- ..but there's a lot of work to do.

0:33:51 > 0:33:54- That's what Gary Speed - is trying to get across.

0:33:54 > 0:34:00- He wants to make sure we have the - discipline and the organization.

0:34:03 > 0:34:08- He's emphasised since the first - game against England...

0:34:08 > 0:34:11- ..that the pattern and - organization is important.

0:34:12 > 0:34:16- The way of playing. - He repeats that time after time.

0:34:16 > 0:34:19- He emphasises that there's a - pattern and a plan.

0:34:20 > 0:34:22- And if the pattern works, - Wales win.

0:34:22 > 0:34:25- And he's stuck to that philosophy - from the start.

0:34:25 > 0:34:28- The players have to remember that.

0:34:28 > 0:34:31- Their shape, their pattern.

0:34:32 > 0:34:36- Is it that different to what - John Toshack was doing?

0:34:37 > 0:34:40- Yes because the players are - much closer to each other now.

0:34:41 > 0:34:45- We're not playing with four and - five in midfield and one forward.

0:34:45 > 0:34:47- It changes to 4-3-3 very quickly.

0:34:47 > 0:34:50- The players are allowed - to change positions more now.

0:34:50 > 0:34:53- They're comfortable with that.

0:34:53 > 0:34:56- We've got a defence with Crofts - in front of it.

0:34:56 > 0:34:59- We've then got three players - - Joe Allen, Ramsey...

0:34:59 > 0:35:02- ..and Bellamy ahead of them.

0:35:02 > 0:35:07- There was half a chance for Norway, - but suddenly Wales counter-attack.

0:35:07 > 0:35:10- Craig Bellamy has scored once. - He's looking for another goal.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12- He looks for Gareth Bale. Morison.

0:35:15 > 0:35:16- Chris Gunter has time.

0:35:17 > 0:35:18- Joe Allen is also there.

0:35:19 > 0:35:20- Crofts. Bellamy.

0:35:21 > 0:35:24- First time passing.

0:35:24 > 0:35:27- Aaron Ramsey tries a little trick. - It doesn't work.

0:35:29 > 0:35:31- Bale has it. He's so quick.

0:35:31 > 0:35:34- Even when he loses control - he can still keep possession.

0:35:39 > 0:35:41- Adam Matthews.

0:35:44 > 0:35:48- Back to Crofts. - He saw that Gareth Bale was free.

0:35:48 > 0:35:51- He tries to get past Arne Riise.

0:35:52 > 0:35:53- Riise's experience wins the day.

0:35:54 > 0:35:56- Winning his 100th cap - this afternoon.

0:35:56 > 0:35:59- Now there's a chance - but Hennessey came out quickly.

0:35:59 > 0:36:01- Abdellaoue was there again.

0:36:01 > 0:36:06- It was a poor ball but Hennessey - saw the problem.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11- Bellamy's now sitting in midfield.

0:36:11 > 0:36:13- He's wandered in from the wing.

0:36:17 > 0:36:20- They're inter-changing positions - very comfortably.

0:36:21 > 0:36:23- No foul on Gareth Bale - by Hangeland...

0:36:23 > 0:36:25- ..according to the referee.

0:36:27 > 0:36:30- Bale complaining, but the referee - doesn't want to know.

0:36:34 > 0:36:35- Tettey.

0:36:36 > 0:36:38- Waehler has it.

0:36:38 > 0:36:42- The central defender has had - a few problems this afternoon...

0:36:43 > 0:36:46- ..against the Wales attack.

0:36:46 > 0:36:48- That was almost another problem.

0:36:49 > 0:36:52- Waehler is there first, - before Morison.

0:36:52 > 0:36:56- Norway are seeing more of - the ball at the moment.

0:36:57 > 0:36:59- Wales have plenty back.

0:37:00 > 0:37:02- Eight players.

0:37:03 > 0:37:08- Two banks of four players - protecting Wayne Hennessey's goal.

0:37:08 > 0:37:11- They look organised from here.

0:37:11 > 0:37:13- No gaps.

0:37:13 > 0:37:17- No gaps between the defenders. - They're all narrow.

0:37:17 > 0:37:21- They know that if Norway go - anywhere, they go out wide...

0:37:21 > 0:37:23- ..and then Wales can reorganise.

0:37:26 > 0:37:30- Bellamy is electric this afternoon. - The pass to Morison!

0:37:30 > 0:37:33- It was almost a third. It was - almost a goal for Steve Morison.

0:37:33 > 0:37:36- It's a corner kick for Wales.

0:37:36 > 0:37:39- Morison's run is worth seeing - again.

0:37:39 > 0:37:42- He's between two, - the timing's perfect.

0:37:42 > 0:37:46- Could he have taken the shot - sooner? That's the only question.

0:37:46 > 0:37:50- A nicely weighted pass from - Bellamy, going across the keeper.

0:37:50 > 0:37:53- I thought he was aware of - the keeper going down...

0:37:53 > 0:37:56- ..and he was going to chip him.

0:37:57 > 0:37:59- After scoring an excellent goal...

0:37:59 > 0:38:03- ..Bellamy almost created a goal - for Steve Morison...

0:38:03 > 0:38:08- ..who has been scoring for Norwich - in the Premier League.

0:38:08 > 0:38:11- Bellamy with the corner.

0:38:11 > 0:38:15- It's difficult to avoid Hangeland, - the giant at the back for Norway.

0:38:15 > 0:38:18- And now the visitors have a chance - to counter-attack.

0:38:18 > 0:38:22- There was a chance, but Adam - Matthews was back there.

0:38:23 > 0:38:25- And he used his speed.

0:38:25 > 0:38:27- He was a yard behind.

0:38:27 > 0:38:31- Darcy Blake jumped for it but he - wasn't going to get there first.

0:38:31 > 0:38:33- Look how quick he is...

0:38:33 > 0:38:37- ..and a well-timed tackle - from Adam Matthews.

0:38:41 > 0:38:45- Huseklepp, the Portsmouth player, - causing the problems again.

0:38:45 > 0:38:50- Will this long throw from - John Arne Riise cause problems?

0:38:50 > 0:38:52- Pedersen rises...

0:38:52 > 0:38:55- ..but Wales clear - without too much trouble.

0:38:55 > 0:38:58- Norway going backwards again...

0:38:58 > 0:39:01- ..and Aaron Ramsey, the most - attacking player for Wales.

0:39:01 > 0:39:04- The captain leading by example - on the field.

0:39:06 > 0:39:10- He's not one who shouts - at his team-mates.

0:39:12 > 0:39:15- But he wins their respect - through his performances.

0:39:19 > 0:39:22- Abdellaoue is playing deeper now - to try and create...

0:39:22 > 0:39:28- ..but Norway have gone all the way - back to the captain Hangeland.

0:39:28 > 0:39:32- Riise looks for Pedersen - but Grindheim is there.

0:39:32 > 0:39:34- Pedersen.

0:39:34 > 0:39:37- The pass was disappointing - in the end...

0:39:37 > 0:39:40- ..and he acknowledges that.

0:39:45 > 0:39:49- 69-year-old Egil Olsen in his - second spell with Norway.

0:39:50 > 0:39:53- He's led them to two World Cups, - in '94 and '98.

0:39:53 > 0:39:56- He was with Wimbledon for a time.

0:39:56 > 0:39:58- It wasn't too successful for Olsen.

0:40:01 > 0:40:05- Wales trying to take the free-kick - quickly. They have another chance.

0:40:06 > 0:40:09- They had wasted the kick, - looking for Gareth Bale.

0:40:09 > 0:40:14- If we go back to 2008, we beat - Norway 3-0 at the Racecourse.

0:40:14 > 0:40:19- Only two of those players - started the game today.

0:40:19 > 0:40:21- Hennessey and Gunter.

0:40:21 > 0:40:25- They started that game, which shows - how much we've moved forward.

0:40:26 > 0:40:29- Carl Fletcher scored that day...

0:40:29 > 0:40:31- ..and two for Jason Koumas.

0:40:38 > 0:40:41- The triangles are effective - for Wales in midfield.

0:40:41 > 0:40:44- Crofts and Matthews. - Morison was there.

0:40:44 > 0:40:47- Bellamy passes straight back - to Matthews.

0:40:47 > 0:40:48- And again.

0:40:52 > 0:40:56- It's like a game of ping pong, with - only the Welsh players playing.

0:40:56 > 0:40:58- The opposition aren't getting - the ball.

0:41:00 > 0:41:04- All the way back to Hennessey. - The goalkeeper has plenty of time.

0:41:04 > 0:41:08- Ask any player what they prefer, - running with possession...

0:41:08 > 0:41:10- ..or chasing after the ball?

0:41:10 > 0:41:14- You'll only get one answer - - having possession.

0:41:14 > 0:41:17- A good pass from Pedersen - to Grindheim.

0:41:17 > 0:41:20- Grindheim has spread it - over Matthews.

0:41:20 > 0:41:22- Huseklepp.

0:41:23 > 0:41:27- He's not their biggest threat but - he's been their stand-out player.

0:41:27 > 0:41:29- Down that right wing.

0:41:29 > 0:41:31- Ramsey didn't control that...

0:41:31 > 0:41:35- ..but the touch took him - past Tettey and it's a foul.

0:41:36 > 0:41:41- Aaron Ramsey's first touch - got away from him again.

0:41:41 > 0:41:44- He's quick enough to invite - the tackle.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47- He gets there first - and is brought down.

0:41:55 > 0:41:56- Crofts.

0:41:56 > 0:41:58- Back to Blake.

0:42:01 > 0:42:02- Blake.

0:42:02 > 0:42:04- Gunter and Crofts.

0:42:04 > 0:42:08- We talk about Gareth Bale, - Aaron Ramsey and Craig Bellamy...

0:42:08 > 0:42:12- ..the stars, but there are - less well known players...

0:42:12 > 0:42:16- ..who aren't in the papers, - doing important work for Wales.

0:42:16 > 0:42:20- I don't think it's too early - to say...

0:42:20 > 0:42:24- ..that if you look across Europe, - even the world, at the moment...

0:42:24 > 0:42:28- ..if there's an international team - on fire, it's us.

0:42:28 > 0:42:30- And Bermuda.

0:42:30 > 0:42:32- Bermuda?

0:42:32 > 0:42:36- The only country that's climbed - further up the FIFA rankings...

0:42:36 > 0:42:38- ..than Wales.

0:42:38 > 0:42:41- They've got nice shorts, - apparently.

0:42:42 > 0:42:46- Bellamy is full of running - this afternoon.

0:42:46 > 0:42:49- He's causing all kinds of problems.

0:42:49 > 0:42:52- He's claiming a corner - but it's a goal kick.

0:42:52 > 0:42:55- Once the defender - slowed him down...

0:42:55 > 0:42:57- He wins the race.

0:42:57 > 0:43:01- His first touch should have been - into the area, across the defender.

0:43:01 > 0:43:06- The defender would have to make - a decision whether to tackle him.

0:43:06 > 0:43:09- Once he slows him down, - he has to pick up speed again...

0:43:09 > 0:43:12- ..and the ball got away from him.

0:43:17 > 0:43:20- Malcolm mentioned the last game - against Norway.

0:43:20 > 0:43:23- A 3-0 win at the Racecourse - in 2008.

0:43:24 > 0:43:28- Wales have won two games - out of the ten against them.

0:43:29 > 0:43:33- The first game was a win as well, - back in 1982 at the Vetch.

0:43:33 > 0:43:36- Ian Rush scored. - Mike England in charge.

0:43:37 > 0:43:39- Only Mike England has had - a better start...

0:43:39 > 0:43:43- ..to his managerial career - with Wales than Gary Speed.

0:43:45 > 0:43:48- And things are improving quickly - for Gary Speed as well.

0:43:52 > 0:43:55- Grindheim turns - and looks for Huseklepp.

0:43:55 > 0:43:58- It goes straight through - to Wayne Hennessey.

0:43:59 > 0:44:02- We're approaching the end - of the first half.

0:44:03 > 0:44:06- It's been very enjoyable for Wales.

0:44:09 > 0:44:13- Joe Allen is strong enough - not to lose possession.

0:44:15 > 0:44:18- He was screaming directions - to Gunter as well.

0:44:18 > 0:44:20- Back it went...

0:44:20 > 0:44:25- ..and it's straight through - to Rune Jarstein.

0:44:28 > 0:44:30- Hangeland for Norway.

0:44:36 > 0:44:38- Waehler.

0:44:38 > 0:44:40- To Espen Ruud.

0:44:42 > 0:44:44- He plays in Denmark.

0:44:44 > 0:44:47- Somehow, the ball went back to him.

0:44:48 > 0:44:52- Jenssen lost possession but - Joe Allen couldn't take advantage.

0:44:52 > 0:44:55- Can Alexander Tettey take advantage - for Norway?

0:44:56 > 0:44:59- John Arne Riise has plenty of time.

0:45:00 > 0:45:02- Grindheim. Tettey. Pedersen.

0:45:02 > 0:45:05- Norway combining at the end - of the first half.

0:45:06 > 0:45:09- A lovely pass from Pedersen - to Riise.

0:45:09 > 0:45:11- Darcy Blake concedes a corner.

0:45:11 > 0:45:14- He took his eye off the ball.

0:45:14 > 0:45:17- He should have headed it out - for a throw.

0:45:17 > 0:45:19- We don't want to concede now.

0:45:23 > 0:45:27- Hangeland, the giant. - He comes up from the back.

0:45:27 > 0:45:31- Look at the size difference between - Hangeland and Ashley Williams.

0:45:31 > 0:45:33- They're both central defenders...

0:45:34 > 0:45:39- ..but Hangeland towers over - everyone.

0:45:40 > 0:45:42- He's a threat from this corner.

0:45:43 > 0:45:46- Wales do enough. - Gareth Bale and Morison were there.

0:45:46 > 0:45:49- It's another corner kick - to the visitors.

0:45:49 > 0:45:52- A minute until the break.

0:45:52 > 0:45:56- If Norway score now, they're back - in the game with their tails up...

0:45:56 > 0:45:58- ..for the second half.

0:45:58 > 0:46:01- It's so important that Wales - concentrate.

0:46:02 > 0:46:04- Pedersen in the middle.

0:46:04 > 0:46:08- He's scored three in his last - seven games for his country.

0:46:08 > 0:46:11- John Arne Riise - will take the corner...

0:46:11 > 0:46:15- ..after the referee has a word - with Hennessey and Pedersen.

0:46:17 > 0:46:20- They know each other - from the Premier League.

0:46:20 > 0:46:22- Pedersen has been with Blackburn...

0:46:23 > 0:46:25- ..for years.

0:46:25 > 0:46:29- A mistake by Morison. - No-one got their head to it.

0:46:29 > 0:46:32- Wales were lucky because - no-one took advantage.

0:46:32 > 0:46:35- Wayne Hennessey has to - come for this.

0:46:35 > 0:46:38- It's in the six yard box. - He's three yards away from it.

0:46:38 > 0:46:42- Why doesn't he make the decision - to come?

0:46:43 > 0:46:45- He controls the six yard box.

0:46:45 > 0:46:48- How often do I say that - about goalkeepers?

0:46:50 > 0:46:53- The first half comes to an end.

0:46:53 > 0:46:57- It's been a half to treasure - for Wales.

0:46:57 > 0:47:01- Gareth Bale again. Who else? - He's been the star.

0:47:01 > 0:47:04- The first goal after 11 minutes.

0:47:04 > 0:47:08- And Craig Bellamy - curling a great shot...

0:47:08 > 0:47:12- ..into the top corner - to make it 2-0.

0:47:12 > 0:47:14- It's a quiet revolution...

0:47:14 > 0:47:17- ..but it's gathering momentum. - Wales 2, Norway 0.

0:47:18 > 0:47:18- .

0:47:21 > 0:47:21- Subtitles

0:47:21 > 0:47:23- Subtitles- - Subtitles

0:47:27 > 0:47:31- If the second half is anything like - the first half...

0:47:31 > 0:47:34- ..it's going to be a feast - for Wales...

0:47:34 > 0:47:37- ..and the manager Gary Speed.

0:47:37 > 0:47:39- 2-0 at half-time.

0:47:39 > 0:47:42- Bale and Bellamy.

0:47:42 > 0:47:46- The stadium was bouncing - in that first half.

0:47:46 > 0:47:49- Especially the opening 20 minutes.

0:47:49 > 0:47:52- Norway couldn't get close to Wales.

0:47:58 > 0:48:02- The test for me in the second half - is the chance to build...

0:48:02 > 0:48:05- ..a strong mentality - to see the game out.

0:48:05 > 0:48:09- We're going to be in a position - like this in the future...

0:48:09 > 0:48:12- ..and we have to do that.

0:48:14 > 0:48:17- No changes for Wales. - Gary Speed has kept the same 11.

0:48:17 > 0:48:20- Norway have made substitutions.

0:48:20 > 0:48:22- A new goalkeeper. Espen Pettersen.

0:48:24 > 0:48:28- And also on the field, - instead of Waehler...

0:48:28 > 0:48:33- ..is Vadim Demidov, who plays - for Real Sociedad in Spain.

0:48:33 > 0:48:36- They are at the bottom of the table - at the moment.

0:48:38 > 0:48:39- Bale battles.

0:48:40 > 0:48:42- Back to Gunter.

0:48:42 > 0:48:45- And Blake back to Hennessey.

0:48:50 > 0:48:52- Hangeland is comfortable - under the ball.

0:48:52 > 0:48:57- Pedersen forward but no problem - at all for Ashley Williams.

0:48:58 > 0:49:00- Wales clearing...

0:49:00 > 0:49:04- ..and again Aaron Ramsey - is furthest forward.

0:49:04 > 0:49:06- But he's back now...

0:49:06 > 0:49:09- ..leaving Morison to do - the attacking work.

0:49:09 > 0:49:13- Bellamy has come deep - to look for possession.

0:49:14 > 0:49:17- The crossfield ball. - Perfect for Gunter.

0:49:20 > 0:49:24- Joe Allen and Crofts try to keep - things tidy in midfield...

0:49:24 > 0:49:27- ..but it was a bit scrappy.

0:49:27 > 0:49:32- Blake needs to be careful. It's a - free-kick against Darcy Blake.

0:49:32 > 0:49:36- He's asking why. We'll ask the - same question to Malcolm Allen.

0:49:36 > 0:49:40- Foreign referees don't like - tackles like this one.

0:49:40 > 0:49:42- He wins the ball...

0:49:42 > 0:49:46- ..but his studs are showing - and that's why he's penalised.

0:49:51 > 0:49:55- I don't think he'd be penalised - for that in the Championship.

0:49:55 > 0:49:59- He wouldn't because he doesn't - play in the Championship.

0:49:59 > 0:50:02- He plays more for Wales - than his club Cardiff.

0:50:02 > 0:50:06- But he and the other Wales players - have to defend...

0:50:06 > 0:50:09- ..early in this second half.

0:50:11 > 0:50:15- Espen Ruud is over the free-kick.

0:50:15 > 0:50:17- Nobody else is near him.

0:50:17 > 0:50:21- There's no need to guess - who will take it.

0:50:21 > 0:50:23- And Blake clears.

0:50:23 > 0:50:26- Aaron Ramsey completes the job.

0:50:26 > 0:50:31- Blake was in the right position - again to head that away.

0:50:31 > 0:50:35- His tackle led to this free-kick...

0:50:35 > 0:50:39- ..but he was brave enough - in that situation.

0:50:39 > 0:50:41- It was an old-fashioned tackle...

0:50:42 > 0:50:45- ..but are we still allowed to - tackle these days?!

0:50:47 > 0:50:50- I think we are. They haven't - changed that rule yet.

0:50:50 > 0:50:53- But it's getting closer.

0:50:57 > 0:50:59- Jenssen for Norway.

0:51:00 > 0:51:03- It almost fell kindly - for Craig Bellamy.

0:51:03 > 0:51:06- Joe Allen makes sure - it gets to Bellamy.

0:51:06 > 0:51:09- He gets it to Crofts.

0:51:09 > 0:51:12- The triangles - - Ramsey, Bellamy and Crofts.

0:51:13 > 0:51:15- Back to Williams

0:51:15 > 0:51:19- That gives Wayne Hennessey - a rare touch.

0:51:19 > 0:51:23- Not much for Hennessey to do, - although Norway have hit the post.

0:51:26 > 0:51:28- Tettey in midfield.

0:51:29 > 0:51:31- He tries to lift Norway.

0:51:31 > 0:51:34- Pedersen in the same way.

0:51:34 > 0:51:36- Riise.

0:51:37 > 0:51:40- How many times has he hit - that pass?

0:51:40 > 0:51:43- Adam Matthews read it this time.

0:51:45 > 0:51:47- Tettey under pressure from Morison.

0:51:47 > 0:51:50- Morison working hard again.

0:51:52 > 0:51:56- No-one near Hangeland at the - moment, who reaches half way.

0:51:58 > 0:52:01- Riise looks for support.

0:52:03 > 0:52:04- Hangeland.

0:52:04 > 0:52:07- Grindheim, - who plays for Copenhagen...

0:52:07 > 0:52:10- ..loses possession to Joe Allen - of Swansea.

0:52:10 > 0:52:13- He has established himself - in the Wales team.

0:52:13 > 0:52:17- Bale has skipped past one. - He's taking on Riise.

0:52:17 > 0:52:21- Ramsey's in the middle - but Bale goes for goal.

0:52:21 > 0:52:24- Straight at Pettersen. - His first touch.

0:52:24 > 0:52:28- He went for the far post. - Riise couldn't stop him cutting in.

0:52:29 > 0:52:32- He couldn't defend that.

0:52:33 > 0:52:35- Huseklepp for Norway.

0:52:35 > 0:52:38- Back to Grindheim.

0:52:39 > 0:52:40- Pedersen.

0:52:40 > 0:52:42- Gunter is on him.

0:52:43 > 0:52:46- Grindheim has plenty of time.

0:52:47 > 0:52:49- No way through for Norway.

0:52:49 > 0:52:51- Crofts is a rock.

0:52:51 > 0:52:54- Bellamy takes a tumble. - It's a free-kick to Wales.

0:52:55 > 0:52:58- The tackle from behind on Bellamy.

0:52:59 > 0:53:00- He lost his balance.

0:53:00 > 0:53:05- But look at this. Riise knew Gareth - wanted to get on his left foot.

0:53:05 > 0:53:08- He couldn't do anything - to defend against it.

0:53:09 > 0:53:12- It was easy in the end - for the goalkeeper.

0:53:16 > 0:53:18- Crofts to Adam Matthews.

0:53:21 > 0:53:24- How many touches does Crofts have - in a game?

0:53:24 > 0:53:28- They are simple but effective. - He keeps things moving.

0:53:30 > 0:53:33- He's happy enough to go - about his work quietly.

0:53:33 > 0:53:36- You need Crofts when you're - playing this style.

0:53:39 > 0:53:41- Ashley Williams to Matthews.

0:53:45 > 0:53:48- Aaron Ramsey under pressure - from Tettey.

0:53:49 > 0:53:52- Wales are calm. - Just keeping things moving.

0:53:52 > 0:53:56- You mentioned Andrew Crofts. He - knows the talent is all around him.

0:53:56 > 0:53:59- I'm sure he loves - being in the team.

0:53:59 > 0:54:03- He gets it and plays the simple - pass. It's about consistency.

0:54:03 > 0:54:08- He intercepts the ball from Norway - and plays it to someone better.

0:54:09 > 0:54:13- There's no need to - complicate things in this game.

0:54:14 > 0:54:18- Bellamy sees that there's space - for Aaron Ramsey.

0:54:18 > 0:54:21- Ramsey finds Gunter - on the right-hand side.

0:54:21 > 0:54:24- Bale is an option.

0:54:25 > 0:54:27- The pass was disappointing.

0:54:27 > 0:54:29- It goes back to Pedersen.

0:54:29 > 0:54:34- I don't think the replacement - goalkeeper appreciated the pass.

0:54:35 > 0:54:39- Crofts again with the ball forward. - No-one there for Wales.

0:54:40 > 0:54:43- Demidov for Norway.

0:54:48 > 0:54:50- Alexander Tettey.

0:54:52 > 0:54:55- There's plenty of room - in front of John Arne Riise.

0:54:56 > 0:54:59- Bale is making sure - he doesn't get too far forward.

0:55:01 > 0:55:05- It's a bit slow from Norway - but they have possession.

0:55:05 > 0:55:08- They're closing in on goal. - A chance for the visitors!

0:55:08 > 0:55:11- Ashley Williams was there - to block it.

0:55:11 > 0:55:16- Wales did get dragged across - in defence.

0:55:16 > 0:55:20- Adam Matthews has to realise that - they're dragging him across...

0:55:20 > 0:55:22- ..to leave that space.

0:55:22 > 0:55:26- Just be aware that - that is going to happen...

0:55:26 > 0:55:28- ..and keep the shape.

0:55:36 > 0:55:40- It's the same tactic. - The throw from John Arne Riise.

0:55:40 > 0:55:42- Norway are direct.

0:55:42 > 0:55:45- Is this a chance for Wales - to counter-attack?

0:55:45 > 0:55:48- Bellamy. Bale has sprinted - into Norway's half.

0:55:48 > 0:55:50- It's a foul on Bellamy.

0:55:51 > 0:55:56- It must be serious because - it's a yellow card in a friendly.

0:55:57 > 0:56:00- Espen Ruud has been penalised.

0:56:00 > 0:56:03- He took a yellow card for his team.

0:56:03 > 0:56:06- The Norway players - were out of position.

0:56:06 > 0:56:10- Bellamy would have been - one-on-one with the last defender.

0:56:11 > 0:56:14- Bale was there as well.

0:56:15 > 0:56:17- He went from one end to the other.

0:56:17 > 0:56:22- A substitution is taking place. - Christian Grindheim is leaving.

0:56:22 > 0:56:27- Simen Brenne is coming on - to replace him.

0:56:28 > 0:56:29- Brenne is a midfielder.

0:56:30 > 0:56:33- He's 30-years-old.

0:56:33 > 0:56:37- He's never played for a club - outside Norway.

0:56:54 > 0:56:56- Morison is strong again.

0:56:56 > 0:56:58- It falls for Tettey.

0:57:00 > 0:57:02- Pedersen.

0:57:02 > 0:57:04- Blake is across again.

0:57:07 > 0:57:09- Nothing special from Darcy Blake.

0:57:09 > 0:57:12- He cleared the danger.

0:57:17 > 0:57:20- The Norway captain, Hangeland.

0:57:20 > 0:57:22- He looks for Abdellaoue.

0:57:24 > 0:57:27- Abdellaoue has looked dangerous - at times.

0:57:27 > 0:57:31- At times, yes. He's the only - player who's threatened.

0:57:35 > 0:57:37- Pedersen for Norway.

0:57:38 > 0:57:40- The replacement, Brenne.

0:57:40 > 0:57:44- A first opportunity for him - to make an impression.

0:57:44 > 0:57:47- Riise back to Tettey. Tettey - has seen a lot of the ball.

0:57:48 > 0:57:51- He hasn't been very effective.

0:57:51 > 0:57:55- They will say that Norway - have been disappointing...

0:57:55 > 0:57:57- ..but maybe we should praise Wales.

0:58:05 > 0:58:08- Gary Speed didn't have much luck - as a player against Norway.

0:58:08 > 0:58:12- He played them twice - once - with Egil Olsen in charge...

0:58:12 > 0:58:15- ..in that game in '94 - at Ninian Park.

0:58:15 > 0:58:20- John Toshack's only game in charge - during his first spell...

0:58:20 > 0:58:22- ..as Wales manager.

0:58:22 > 0:58:27- Will Gary Speed taste success - against them as a manager?

0:58:27 > 0:58:31- It's looking good so far - for Wales' run to continue.

0:58:32 > 0:58:35- They've won three out of four. - They've won the last two.

0:58:35 > 0:58:38- A chance to win three games - in a row.

0:58:38 > 0:58:40- Bellamy threatening again.

0:58:41 > 0:58:44- But it's a foul by Bellamy - on Demidov.

0:58:45 > 0:58:48- Craig's not happy.

0:58:48 > 0:58:52- A Wales player who will demand - a good performance...

0:58:52 > 0:58:54- ..in the second half.

0:58:54 > 0:58:57- Is that Deiniolen Brass Band?

0:58:57 > 0:59:00- Deiniolen Brass Band - are a lot better, Dylan.

0:59:00 > 0:59:03- We love the Barry Hornes.

0:59:04 > 0:59:08- They bring a wonderful atmosphere - to a football match.

0:59:09 > 0:59:12- They don't play The Great Escape - all the time...

0:59:13 > 0:59:15- ..like the England band.

0:59:21 > 0:59:23- Bale to Chris Gunter.

0:59:27 > 0:59:31- Joe Allen to his Swansea team-mate - Ashley Williams.

0:59:31 > 0:59:33- The trinity isn't complete.

0:59:33 > 0:59:36- Neil Taylor has an ankle injury...

0:59:36 > 0:59:40- ..so there are two Swansea players - on the field this afternoon.

0:59:41 > 0:59:44- One from Cardiff City at - the moment. Darcy Blake.

0:59:44 > 0:59:48- He dummies the pass - and it goes to Bale.

0:59:50 > 0:59:52- Joe Allen has plenty of time.

0:59:52 > 0:59:55- Back by Crofts.

1:00:01 > 1:00:03- Aaron Ramsey to Crofts.

1:00:03 > 1:00:06- The crowd starting to raise - their voices.

1:00:06 > 1:00:10- It's nice to say that there's - just over 12,000 here too...

1:00:10 > 1:00:12- ..at the Cardiff City Stadium.

1:00:12 > 1:00:14- For a friendly.

1:00:18 > 1:00:20- Things are changing.

1:00:20 > 1:00:22- Things are changing, Dylan.

1:00:22 > 1:00:25- The fans have turned up again - today.

1:00:27 > 1:00:30- A bigger crowd - than we've been used to...

1:00:30 > 1:00:32- ..for friendlies recently.

1:00:32 > 1:00:34- A good move by Norway.

1:00:34 > 1:00:38- Abdellaoue turned again. He's - threatening to cause problems.

1:00:42 > 1:00:45- Over 12,000 here - at the Cardiff City Stadium...

1:00:45 > 1:00:47- ..to watch a friendly.

1:00:47 > 1:00:51- We've been complaining - about the crowds...

1:00:51 > 1:00:53- ..but they're returning - very quickly.

1:00:53 > 1:00:57- And if these results continue, - it'll be full here before long.

1:00:57 > 1:01:01- We might have to move back - to the Millennium.

1:01:02 > 1:01:05- How much of a difference - does that make for the players?

1:01:05 > 1:01:08- There's a huge difference.

1:01:08 > 1:01:11- Brenne, the sub for Norway, - steals possession...

1:01:11 > 1:01:14- ..but the effort was disappointing.

1:01:14 > 1:01:17- They haven't had many shots - this afternoon.

1:01:17 > 1:01:22- When the crowd are at their best, - singing and chanting...

1:01:22 > 1:01:24- ..and celebrating...

1:01:24 > 1:01:27- ..it encourages the players - to do better.

1:01:32 > 1:01:36- There were rumours there would be - a protest against Team GB...

1:01:36 > 1:01:39- ..but there's no sign of that...

1:01:39 > 1:01:44- ..and not many people have made - their feelings heard...

1:01:44 > 1:01:47- ..towards Aaron Ramsey - and Gareth Bale.

1:01:47 > 1:01:50- Whatever people's feelings are...

1:01:51 > 1:01:54- ..it would be terrible to hear - Welsh players being booed.

1:01:56 > 1:01:59- You're absolutely right. - It'll be their decision.

1:02:00 > 1:02:04- It's been forgotten about - with their performances...

1:02:05 > 1:02:07- ..and the result so far.

1:02:07 > 1:02:10- There's still plenty of time to go.

1:02:10 > 1:02:13- More will be said - on that issue, I imagine.

1:02:13 > 1:02:17- Premiership managers haven't - joined the debate yet...

1:02:17 > 1:02:19- ..on player release.

1:02:24 > 1:02:26- Darcy Blake.

1:02:26 > 1:02:28- He's looking for Bale...

1:02:28 > 1:02:31- ..but not even Gareth Bale - can do anything with that.

1:02:31 > 1:02:34- That's not Darcy Blake's strength.

1:02:35 > 1:02:38- His strength is defending strongly, - taking responsibility...

1:02:38 > 1:02:42- ..and leaving the passing - to other people.

1:02:46 > 1:02:49- Half an hour to go - at the Cardiff City Stadium.

1:02:49 > 1:02:51- Ashley Williams intercepts.

1:02:51 > 1:02:55- A rare mistake by Crofts and - the pass from Pedersen is perfect.

1:02:55 > 1:02:57- A disappointing touch...

1:02:57 > 1:03:01- ..but not as disappointing - as Wayne Hennessey's touch!

1:03:01 > 1:03:05- It's a nightmare for the keeper. - It's a goal for Norway.

1:03:05 > 1:03:07- Huseklepp is celebrating.

1:03:07 > 1:03:11- He's been their best player and - he was there to take advantage.

1:03:11 > 1:03:14- Wayne Hennessey won't want to see - this again.

1:03:14 > 1:03:18- We talk about concentration. - Hennessey hasn't had much to do.

1:03:18 > 1:03:21- What on Earth is he doing there?

1:03:21 > 1:03:25- He knows he has to get his body - behind his arms.

1:03:25 > 1:03:29- That should be safe in his hands. - Look at the mess he makes!

1:03:29 > 1:03:31- That is amateurish!

1:03:31 > 1:03:33- Now we have a game on our hands.

1:03:36 > 1:03:38- It was unnecessary.

1:03:39 > 1:03:41- Norway are back in the game.

1:03:41 > 1:03:45- You can see the difference - a goal makes straight away.

1:03:47 > 1:03:49- They're a lot more confident.

1:03:51 > 1:03:54- Huseklepp's back-heel - is a sign of that.

1:03:54 > 1:03:58- He enjoyed the goal, and deserved - it for his performance.

1:03:58 > 1:04:01- Talk about creating problems - for ourselves.

1:04:03 > 1:04:06- Although Wayne Hennessey - is the first choice goalkeeper...

1:04:06 > 1:04:09- ..he has 38 caps...

1:04:09 > 1:04:15- ..I'm not the only one who feels - he can be unreliable.

1:04:15 > 1:04:18- Definitely not. - He can make very silly mistakes.

1:04:20 > 1:04:22- To be honest...

1:04:23 > 1:04:27- ..it all comes down - to his concentration.

1:04:27 > 1:04:30- It's natural to sometimes think, - "This is easy"...

1:04:30 > 1:04:34- ..but you can't drop - concentration levels.

1:04:35 > 1:04:39- I know the goalkeeper is in an - unfortunate position in a game.

1:04:39 > 1:04:42- One mistake can lead to a goal.

1:04:42 > 1:04:44- But that was a terrible mistake...

1:04:44 > 1:04:46- ..by Hennessey.

1:04:47 > 1:04:51- And who's watching pitchside - as part of the Sgorio team?

1:04:51 > 1:04:55- Dai Davies. We'll see what the - ex-Wales goalkeeper has to say.

1:04:55 > 1:04:57- 52 caps for his country.

1:04:58 > 1:05:00- Plenty of experience.

1:05:00 > 1:05:04- A few mistakes, possibly, - but not too many.

1:05:04 > 1:05:06- Not as bad as that one anyway.

1:05:06 > 1:05:10- Hennessey, Hennessey, Hennessey. - What was he doing?

1:05:10 > 1:05:12- He owes his team now.

1:05:15 > 1:05:17- Hangeland for Norway.

1:05:18 > 1:05:22- Back to Pettersen, the substitute - in goal for the visitors.

1:05:22 > 1:05:25- Wales haven't made - any substitutions yet.

1:05:26 > 1:05:30- We're so used to seeing - lots of subs in friendlies...

1:05:30 > 1:05:33- ..but Gary Speed doesn't see - the players that often...

1:05:33 > 1:05:38- ..so he wants the first team to - have as much time as possible...

1:05:38 > 1:05:40- ..on the field.

1:05:40 > 1:05:42- There will be substitutions.

1:05:42 > 1:05:46- But we're almost midway through the - second half and no sign of any yet.

1:05:46 > 1:05:48- Another chance for Norway.

1:05:49 > 1:05:51- Crofts tidies things up.

1:05:51 > 1:05:54- Bale is calling for it.

1:05:54 > 1:05:58- He gets it in the end - and tries to get past Pedersen.

1:05:58 > 1:06:00- Plenty of tricks...

1:06:00 > 1:06:02- ..but he was standing still.

1:06:05 > 1:06:09- It feels like things have changed - since Wayne Hennessey's mistake.

1:06:21 > 1:06:24- Demidov for Norway.

1:06:26 > 1:06:27- They're back in the game.

1:06:28 > 1:06:32- They've hardly been in the Wales - box but they're attacking again.

1:06:32 > 1:06:34- Joe Allen was back there.

1:06:35 > 1:06:39- Aaron Ramsey tries to establish - a foothold...

1:06:39 > 1:06:41- ..but they're going backwards.

1:06:41 > 1:06:43- It suddenly looks untidy.

1:06:43 > 1:06:46- A good kick by Hennessey. - We should say that.

1:06:48 > 1:06:50- Where have Wales gone?

1:06:53 > 1:06:57- It shows how fragile - the confidence is.

1:06:57 > 1:07:01- It can change so quickly - in a football match.

1:07:03 > 1:07:08- The players are not inexperienced - but they are still young.

1:07:08 > 1:07:12- They thrive on confidence but it - can affect them when it goes...

1:07:12 > 1:07:15- ..as we can see with that pass - from Aaron Ramsey.

1:07:16 > 1:07:20- It's a mistake like Hennessey's - but it doesn't lead to a goal.

1:07:20 > 1:07:23- It's affecting the whole team.

1:07:23 > 1:07:25- Look at this.

1:07:25 > 1:07:28- No problems at all.

1:07:28 > 1:07:31- A complete mess and - we concede a goal...

1:07:31 > 1:07:37- Well, the easiest goal - Norway will ever score.

1:07:39 > 1:07:42- You see that on Sunday mornings, - not in an international match.

1:07:46 > 1:07:47- Huseklepp.

1:07:50 > 1:07:53- Norway causing problems for Wales - again.

1:07:53 > 1:07:55- They're back in this game. - It was almost two.

1:07:56 > 1:07:59- It was almost a goal for Pedersen.

1:07:59 > 1:08:01- Wales were lucky.

1:08:01 > 1:08:04- It was an excellent ball in, - across the six yard box.

1:08:04 > 1:08:08- It's difficult to defend. - They're facing the goal.

1:08:08 > 1:08:12- But Pedersen wasn't quick enough - to get there...

1:08:12 > 1:08:14- ..and get the touch to score.

1:08:16 > 1:08:21- Hennessey let it go. - I wonder whether he saw Pedersen.

1:08:22 > 1:08:25- Ruud was on his own.

1:08:26 > 1:08:31- I'm sure Hennessey won't be too - happy with his contribution.

1:08:31 > 1:08:33- A kick to nowhere.

1:08:34 > 1:08:37- Things have changed in a moment.

1:08:39 > 1:08:42- No surprise what the message is - from Gary Speed.

1:08:42 > 1:08:44- Concentration.

1:08:44 > 1:08:47- A lack of concentration - led to the goal for Norway.

1:08:48 > 1:08:51- We need more from Steve Morison - at the moment.

1:08:51 > 1:08:53- These long balls.

1:08:53 > 1:08:58- Gary Speed is telling Hennessey - not to kick towards Hangeland.

1:09:01 > 1:09:05- Not many players will beat - Hangeland in the air.

1:09:07 > 1:09:09- Gareth Bale.

1:09:09 > 1:09:11- He almost got past Riise.

1:09:12 > 1:09:14- He acknowledges the pass.

1:09:22 > 1:09:26- We've seen Bale score, - he can create...

1:09:26 > 1:09:29- ..and he's got a long throw - as well.

1:09:29 > 1:09:30- A bit of everything.

1:09:31 > 1:09:35- What can he create with this throw? - He looks for Morison.

1:09:35 > 1:09:38- A chance for Bellamy. - Craig Bellamy for Wales!

1:09:38 > 1:09:42- It's the side-netting. Some in - the stadium thought it was in.

1:09:42 > 1:09:44- It wasn't far off.

1:09:44 > 1:09:47- The best chance for Wales - in the second half.

1:09:47 > 1:09:51- The long throw from Bale, - a good first touch by Bellamy...

1:09:51 > 1:09:55- ..he's on his left foot - and he has to make the keeper work.

1:09:55 > 1:09:59- He can't go across goal - and it hits the side-netting.

1:10:02 > 1:10:04- But it was a chance.

1:10:04 > 1:10:07- Thank goodness for that.

1:10:07 > 1:10:09- Not many in the second half - for Wales.

1:10:12 > 1:10:14- Morison is offside.

1:10:15 > 1:10:18- The Norway defence - saw that clearly.

1:10:19 > 1:10:21- Morison looks unhappy - at the moment.

1:10:22 > 1:10:25- He hasn't had any service - in the second half.

1:10:25 > 1:10:28- Nothing at all to hold up...

1:10:28 > 1:10:31- ..and to get the midfielders - involved.

1:10:32 > 1:10:36- Sam Vokes is preparing to come on.

1:10:38 > 1:10:40- You would expect Morison to go off.

1:10:40 > 1:10:44- The Wolves striker is - Gary Speed's choice.

1:10:44 > 1:10:46- If Morison goes off.

1:10:47 > 1:10:49- You would think so.

1:10:50 > 1:10:54- Gareth Bale trying to force - a mistake out of Hangeland.

1:10:58 > 1:11:00- Riise to Tettey.

1:11:00 > 1:11:02- Back to Hangeland.

1:11:09 > 1:11:12- Norway have a chance here...

1:11:13 > 1:11:15- ..to steal a draw.

1:11:17 > 1:11:19- Tettey.

1:11:24 > 1:11:28- Demidov, the substitute, - looks comfortable on the ball.

1:11:28 > 1:11:32- Moving up from the back. - Arne Riise is up there.

1:11:32 > 1:11:36- He was looking for Abdellaoue - but it's over everyone.

1:11:36 > 1:11:39- And Wales are ready - to make a substitution.

1:11:39 > 1:11:42- Sam Vokes of Wolves...

1:11:42 > 1:11:46- ..and it is Steve Morison - who makes way.

1:11:46 > 1:11:48- Two in two for Norwich...

1:11:48 > 1:11:52- ..but no goals for Wales - at the Cardiff City Stadium.

1:11:52 > 1:11:56- And Sam Vokes, - who is now 22-years-old.

1:11:59 > 1:12:03- He has lost his way a little bit - with Wales after a good start.

1:12:04 > 1:12:09- He has 20 minutes to remind - everyone what he has to offer.

1:12:09 > 1:12:13- A good tackle by Crofts. Bellamy - also does enough in the tackle.

1:12:14 > 1:12:17- Ramsey. A first touch for Vokes.

1:12:19 > 1:12:22- Crofts sees Gareth Bale.

1:12:23 > 1:12:26- Gareth Bale considers his options.

1:12:29 > 1:12:33- A few groans from the crowd but - now they're cheering for Bellamy.

1:12:33 > 1:12:36- The support arrives - but it's a poor pass.

1:12:36 > 1:12:40- It was behind everyone - and straight to Hangeland.

1:12:40 > 1:12:44- And Norway counter-attack.

1:12:47 > 1:12:50- They look a lot slicker. - The goal scorer fancies another.

1:12:50 > 1:12:55- Pedersen! It wasn't far away - from Morten Gamst Pedersen.

1:12:55 > 1:12:58- From one end to the other. - What a chance.

1:12:58 > 1:13:01- Bellamy took too long - with his pass.

1:13:01 > 1:13:06- But look at this run from the goal - scorer. He's full of confidence.

1:13:06 > 1:13:10- He gets away from Ashley Williams. - Pedersen on his left foot!

1:13:10 > 1:13:13- Well, it was around 10 yards wide - in the end.

1:13:13 > 1:13:17- Why didn't Bellamy pass it sooner? - Why take that extra little touch?

1:13:17 > 1:13:21- The gap closed - and Hangeland read the play.

1:13:23 > 1:13:27- It was almost back with Bellamy - but it's a throw for Wales...

1:13:28 > 1:13:29- ..at the Cardiff City Stadium.

1:13:31 > 1:13:35- Bellamy and Wales are not happy - at the moment.

1:13:37 > 1:13:41- They know this game should be a - lot more comfortable than it is.

1:13:43 > 1:13:48- In the end, this might not be - such a bad thing for Wales.

1:13:48 > 1:13:51- It will remind them that football - isn't that easy.

1:13:51 > 1:13:55- It was looking remarkably simple - at one stage.

1:13:55 > 1:13:58- But Norway have worked hard - and they're back in the game.

1:14:04 > 1:14:08- It's a fine line between - success and failure...

1:14:08 > 1:14:12- ..but also between confidence - and over confidence.

1:14:12 > 1:14:17- Norway are attacking again - but there was an offside.

1:14:17 > 1:14:20- We dominated the first half.

1:14:20 > 1:14:24- As I said, it's natural for - players, psychologically...

1:14:24 > 1:14:28- ..just to lose a little bit - of concentration.

1:14:29 > 1:14:33- They don't sustain - the same attitude...

1:14:33 > 1:14:37- ..effort and desire - in their performance...

1:14:38 > 1:14:41- ..which has happened - in the second half...

1:14:41 > 1:14:44- ..and they conceded a silly goal.

1:14:44 > 1:14:48- A goal for Erik Huseklepp.

1:14:51 > 1:14:55- I think we can give Wayne Hennessey - an assist.

1:14:57 > 1:15:01- Hangeland is strong. - No chance for Sam Vokes.

1:15:06 > 1:15:09- And plenty to think about - for Gary Speed.

1:15:10 > 1:15:14- I don't think he's learned much - he didn't already know.

1:15:16 > 1:15:21- He's got an excellent team - but they're also still developing.

1:15:22 > 1:15:26- They're a long way from being - the finished article.

1:15:28 > 1:15:29- Crofts to Ramsey.

1:15:31 > 1:15:33- Ramsey has been quiet...

1:15:33 > 1:15:36- ..like the rest of the team - in the second half.

1:15:42 > 1:15:45- Darcy Blake and Ashley Williams, - the central defenders...

1:15:45 > 1:15:48- ..haven't done much wrong.

1:15:48 > 1:15:50- They're looking for Bale.

1:15:50 > 1:15:54- John Arne Riise made sure the young - Welshman couldn't get that.

1:15:54 > 1:15:58- John Arne Riise wasn't even - looking at the ball.

1:15:59 > 1:16:02- He wasn't going to win it in the - air and he pushed Gareth Bale.

1:16:05 > 1:16:08- Just over a quarter of an hour - to go.

1:16:08 > 1:16:12- For the first time this afternoon, - it feels like a friendly.

1:16:13 > 1:16:17- I didn't, especially during - the opening 20 minutes.

1:16:17 > 1:16:19- Wales were excellent.

1:16:19 > 1:16:23- Two goals, for Bale and Bellamy.

1:16:23 > 1:16:26- If I was on the pitch, - the last quarter of an hour...

1:16:26 > 1:16:28- ..2-1 up...

1:16:28 > 1:16:33- ..it wouldn't be a friendly - in my head.

1:16:33 > 1:16:38- It's a chance to win another - an international match.

1:16:41 > 1:16:45- These runs are very important.

1:16:47 > 1:16:51- They won three of their last four - qualifying games...

1:16:51 > 1:16:53- ..for Euro 2012.

1:16:53 > 1:16:55- They just lost at Wembley...

1:16:55 > 1:16:58- ..by the thickness - of Robert Earnshaw's boot.

1:16:58 > 1:17:02- Wales are penalised. - That was a chance too.

1:17:02 > 1:17:05- Alongside the ability - we have in the team...

1:17:05 > 1:17:08- ..we need to build - a strong mentality.

1:17:08 > 1:17:11- We have a chance to do that here.

1:17:14 > 1:17:17- Norway are causing problems again.

1:17:17 > 1:17:21- It went into the middle. John Arne - Riise has a dangerous left foot.

1:17:21 > 1:17:25- He crosses this time. - It's almost perfect.

1:17:26 > 1:17:28- Uncertainty from Ashley Williams.

1:17:28 > 1:17:32- Abdellaoue was waiting for - the cross from John Arne Riise.

1:17:32 > 1:17:34- There was confusion again.

1:17:34 > 1:17:39- Another threat from Norway. The - first header comes out to the left.

1:17:39 > 1:17:41- A cross to the far post...

1:17:41 > 1:17:45- ..and Ashley Williams - didn't know where the ball was.

1:17:45 > 1:17:49- He conceded a corner. But Wayne - Hennessey was talking to him.

1:17:53 > 1:17:56- John Arne Riise takes it...

1:17:58 > 1:18:00- ..quickly to Ruud.

1:18:00 > 1:18:01- Now Wales can break.

1:18:02 > 1:18:05- Bellamy. Bale is arriving. - Ramsey is there too.

1:18:05 > 1:18:09- Three against three - with more arriving for Norway.

1:18:09 > 1:18:12- But it's another poor pass - from Craig Bellamy.

1:18:12 > 1:18:16- And somehow - it was someone else's fault.

1:18:16 > 1:18:20- Well, he made a mistake - with the first one.

1:18:20 > 1:18:22- I don't think he did this time.

1:18:22 > 1:18:26- Bale should have made the run - to the near post.

1:18:26 > 1:18:31- The defender put himself in a - position to block the ball.

1:18:36 > 1:18:38- A substitution for Wales.

1:18:38 > 1:18:41- Applause for Joe Allen.

1:18:41 > 1:18:44- Hal Robson-Kanu of Reading - comes on.

1:18:46 > 1:18:47- He's usually a sub for Wales.

1:18:48 > 1:18:51- He's started one game - and this is his fifth cap.

1:18:51 > 1:18:53- And he's involved straight away.

1:18:53 > 1:18:58- It was a touch to Bellamy - and I think Bellamy went for goal.

1:18:58 > 1:19:01- He was trying to curl it - into the far post.

1:19:01 > 1:19:05- They took it quickly - and he hit it first time...

1:19:05 > 1:19:08- ..to catch the keeper off guard.

1:19:12 > 1:19:14- Another sign that it's a friendly.

1:19:14 > 1:19:16- Another substitution.

1:19:16 > 1:19:18- Norway this time.

1:19:18 > 1:19:22- Daniel Braaten, who plays - for Toulouse in France...

1:19:22 > 1:19:24- ..is coming on.

1:19:25 > 1:19:27- The midfielder had a spell - with Bolton.

1:19:27 > 1:19:30- Mohammed Abdellaoue makes way.

1:19:30 > 1:19:33- Three in three for Abdellaoue - before today.

1:19:33 > 1:19:35- No goals tonight.

1:19:35 > 1:19:39- Braaten looks happy to be coming on - as well.

1:19:47 > 1:19:50- Norway are changing things, - as you would expect.

1:19:53 > 1:19:56- Abdellaoue can watch and relax.

1:19:57 > 1:20:00- Wales will be happy to - see him leave the field.

1:20:00 > 1:20:04- And Braaten's first contribution - is a foul.

1:20:12 > 1:20:16- You can see the substitute - push Darcy Blake.

1:20:17 > 1:20:22- I'm sure Wales will take their time - with this free-kick.

1:20:24 > 1:20:27- He's a big guy.

1:20:28 > 1:20:30- He's not small.

1:20:32 > 1:20:36- Vokes battling - and winning the header.

1:20:37 > 1:20:41- Ramsey didn't compete - and Wales lost the ball.

1:20:42 > 1:20:45- Ashley Williams was there - and he had to slide to reach it.

1:20:45 > 1:20:48- Robson-Kanu back to Matthews.

1:20:50 > 1:20:53- Crofts takes the wrong option - for once.

1:20:53 > 1:20:56- Kanu was waiting on the wing.

1:21:02 > 1:21:05- Tettey to Hangeland.

1:21:07 > 1:21:10- John Arne Riise looks for Pedersen.

1:21:10 > 1:21:15- The experienced Norwegian players - are trying to get them back level.

1:21:19 > 1:21:22- It's the last game of the year - for Wales.

1:21:22 > 1:21:25- It would be nice to finish 2011 - with a win.

1:21:26 > 1:21:29- If Norway carry on passing - like that, we have a chance.

1:21:36 > 1:21:38- Tettey with the disappointing pass.

1:21:41 > 1:21:44- You can see from Chris Gunter's - face that he has no option.

1:21:45 > 1:21:47- He was shaking his head.

1:21:47 > 1:21:51- Everyone's under pressure but it's - not a problem for Aaron Ramsey...

1:21:51 > 1:21:53- ..whether he's being marked or not.

1:21:53 > 1:21:56- The pass was a problem - for Darcy Blake.

1:21:57 > 1:21:59- Vokes with a heavy first touch.

1:22:01 > 1:22:03- That is a better pass from Ramsey.

1:22:05 > 1:22:09- It invited Matthews to attack.

1:22:09 > 1:22:12- Hal Robson-Kanu needs - no invitation. Bellamy.

1:22:12 > 1:22:16- Back to Crofts. - Wales picking up the tempo.

1:22:16 > 1:22:20- Aaron Ramsey. That was ambitious - and disappointing.

1:22:22 > 1:22:26- More uncertainty - but it has reached Gareth Bale.

1:22:26 > 1:22:29- He's been very determined - this afternoon. Two men on him.

1:22:29 > 1:22:33- The pass with the outside - of his left foot!

1:22:33 > 1:22:36- It didn't even look - like he was going to pass.

1:22:36 > 1:22:40- The skill to hide the pass - and create opportunities.

1:22:42 > 1:22:44- Hennessey comes out. - And takes it safely.

1:22:44 > 1:22:47- No doubt about that one.

1:22:48 > 1:22:51- I say, tongue in cheek.

1:22:51 > 1:22:55- Has anything changed for Wales in - terms of the system and pattern?

1:22:55 > 1:22:58- No, not at all. - The system hasn't changed.

1:22:58 > 1:23:01- Some new players, of course.

1:23:01 > 1:23:03- Give Hal Robson-Kanu credit.

1:23:03 > 1:23:07- The pass from Ramsey wasn't great - but he's found Bellamy.

1:23:07 > 1:23:09- Kanu arrives but it's a corner.

1:23:09 > 1:23:14- We've seen Kanu go out to the left - more than Bellamy.

1:23:14 > 1:23:17- Bellamy has been dragged in - behind Sam Vokes.

1:23:17 > 1:23:20- Sam Vokes is there - instead of Morison.

1:23:23 > 1:23:26- Under ten minutes to go. - A corner for Wales.

1:23:26 > 1:23:30- Does Darcy Blake fancy a goal? - He has scored here for Wales.

1:23:30 > 1:23:33- His only goal in a friendly - against Australia.

1:23:34 > 1:23:39- Bellamy with a great corner - and Ashley Williams was there.

1:23:39 > 1:23:44- Ashley got a touch on this. - It came to him very quickly.

1:23:44 > 1:23:47- I think Gareth Bale - got the first header.

1:23:47 > 1:23:49- Yes... Oh!

1:23:49 > 1:23:53- Ashley Williams was so close to - putting this game to bed for Wales.

1:23:53 > 1:23:57- He wasn't expecting it - and it bounced in front of him...

1:23:57 > 1:24:00- ..but it's a good chance for Wales.

1:24:03 > 1:24:05- Pedersen.

1:24:05 > 1:24:07- He was looking for Braaten.

1:24:08 > 1:24:10- Gunter got there first for Wales.

1:24:17 > 1:24:21- John Arne Riise asking for - a different ball.

1:24:21 > 1:24:24- This one must be dry - and easier to throw.

1:24:25 > 1:24:29- I think someone has made a comment - about his ginger hair.

1:24:29 > 1:24:33- It's a dangerous throw... Wales - causing problems for themselves.

1:24:33 > 1:24:36- They failed to clear. - Tettey keeping the pressure on.

1:24:36 > 1:24:39- But Norway are going backwards.

1:24:40 > 1:24:42- Demidov.

1:24:42 > 1:24:44- Riise is still there.

1:24:44 > 1:24:47- Pedersen and Riise - up against Gunter.

1:24:48 > 1:24:50- There's an offside.

1:24:52 > 1:24:55- A bit of a breather for Wales.

1:24:55 > 1:24:58- No time to rest though.

1:24:58 > 1:25:00- No question about that.

1:25:06 > 1:25:11- Some supporters are starting to - leave the Cardiff City Stadium.

1:25:12 > 1:25:15- Some are staying on their feet...

1:25:16 > 1:25:20- ..applauding, singing - and supporting.

1:25:20 > 1:25:24- They're trying to lift the team - for the last few minutes.

1:25:24 > 1:25:28- They have helped create an - atmosphere this afternoon.

1:25:28 > 1:25:31- They had plenty to cheer - after the first half...

1:25:31 > 1:25:34- ..but not much in the second half - from Wales.

1:25:34 > 1:25:36- We expect more.

1:25:40 > 1:25:42- John Arne Riise.

1:25:44 > 1:25:47- Is there a way back for Norway?

1:25:47 > 1:25:50- Huseklepp got the first goal.

1:25:50 > 1:25:53- It was very fortuitous - for the visitors.

1:25:53 > 1:25:57- Good strength from Darcy Blake. - He'd done the hard work.

1:25:57 > 1:26:00- Competing again.

1:26:00 > 1:26:04- And Wales, where they were passing - comfortably in the first half...

1:26:04 > 1:26:06- ..more uncertainty now.

1:26:06 > 1:26:10- There is. There's not much purpose - behind the possession any more.

1:26:10 > 1:26:12- We're playing triangles.

1:26:12 > 1:26:16- Darcy Blake lost the ball and then - he was lucky not to be penalised...

1:26:16 > 1:26:19- ..for that tackle.

1:26:20 > 1:26:23- And then Gunter in a cul-de-sac.

1:26:28 > 1:26:30- Ramsey gets up.

1:26:30 > 1:26:32- Smiling.

1:26:35 > 1:26:39- I wonder whether Darcy Blake - is starting to feel the minutes.

1:26:40 > 1:26:44- Are those lungs burning? He hasn't - played since Wales played Bulgaria.

1:26:44 > 1:26:47- I'm sure they will be. - No question about that.

1:26:48 > 1:26:52- He's a player who doesn't - play regularly for his club.

1:26:52 > 1:26:55- Vokes with the header. - Bellamy is there first.

1:26:55 > 1:26:58- But he couldn't keep it in. - It's a goal kick for Norway.

1:26:58 > 1:27:02- He's not going to stop. - He's still full of energy.

1:27:02 > 1:27:05- And with five minutes remaining...

1:27:05 > 1:27:09- ..Ramsey and Gareth Bale - are still on the field.

1:27:10 > 1:27:15- It tells me that Gary Speed got his - own way with the club managers.

1:27:17 > 1:27:23- Jonathan Parr of Crystal Palace - is coming on for Jenssen.

1:27:23 > 1:27:27- Parr was on the bench for Palace - against Cardiff last weekend.

1:27:27 > 1:27:30- They lost but he didn't come on.

1:27:30 > 1:27:34- He finally gets his chance - on the field in the capital.

1:27:35 > 1:27:38- It could be an ambition of his.

1:27:40 > 1:27:42- Gareth Bale for Wales.

1:27:42 > 1:27:46- They're going backwards - with Gunter and Darcy Blake.

1:27:49 > 1:27:51- Back to Hennessey again.

1:27:51 > 1:27:54- I was afraid to look, - to be honest, Malcolm.

1:27:54 > 1:27:58- Vokes isn't having much luck - against Hangeland.

1:28:00 > 1:28:03- He's a giant in the Norway defence.

1:28:03 > 1:28:07- The substitute Parr tries to - put pressure on Gunter.

1:28:07 > 1:28:10- Gunter was only in second gear.

1:28:10 > 1:28:12- Shadowing the ball out.

1:28:13 > 1:28:16- He's started the last six games.

1:28:16 > 1:28:20- He's started 25 of the last 30 - games for Wales, Chris Gunter.

1:28:21 > 1:28:24- The only one to play every game - under Gary Speed.

1:28:26 > 1:28:28- A quiet hero.

1:28:28 > 1:28:32- And the next generation - here to watch their heroes.

1:28:33 > 1:28:39- And who can blame them when stars - like Ramsey and Bale are on show?

1:28:40 > 1:28:43- Not to forget the rest. - That's important.

1:28:46 > 1:28:50- But there's no doubt who the stars - are, and not just for Wales.

1:28:50 > 1:28:54- In the British press, who are - causing problems for the FAW.

1:28:55 > 1:28:59- Many in England want to see - Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey...

1:28:59 > 1:29:03- ..representing Britain - at the Olympic Games.

1:29:03 > 1:29:06- The players are quite keen as well.

1:29:07 > 1:29:10- The fans are not so happy about it.

1:29:11 > 1:29:12- Braaten.

1:29:12 > 1:29:15- He's strong and determined.

1:29:15 > 1:29:18- Ashley Williams is strong - and determined too.

1:29:18 > 1:29:23- How often do we see Ashley Williams - come to the rescue?

1:29:23 > 1:29:26- He stays on his feet, - slows the attacker down...

1:29:26 > 1:29:29- ..and steals the ball - from his feet.

1:29:33 > 1:29:35- Vadim Demidov has done well - since coming on.

1:29:36 > 1:29:40- He plays for Real Sociedad - in Spain. It's a good pass.

1:29:40 > 1:29:45- Braaten, the sub, - to the other substitute, Parr.

1:29:47 > 1:29:49- The goal scorer, Huseklepp.

1:29:51 > 1:29:55- Norway know time is running out - and there's just one goal in it.

1:29:55 > 1:29:59- Bellamy gets the smallest touch - to Bale.

1:29:59 > 1:30:02- Straight back to Bellamy. - They're breaking at pace.

1:30:02 > 1:30:05- Bellamy back to Bale. - Across the goal!

1:30:06 > 1:30:09- Wales score!

1:30:09 > 1:30:12- Congratulations to Sam Vokes.

1:30:12 > 1:30:15- His fourth goal for his country.

1:30:16 > 1:30:19- It's been a fallow spell - for Sam Vokes...

1:30:19 > 1:30:22- ..but thanks to Craig Bellamy - he's scored for Wales.

1:30:22 > 1:30:25- It's over now. Wales 3, Norway 1.

1:30:25 > 1:30:28- Thanks to Gareth Bale - and Craig Bellamy.

1:30:28 > 1:30:30- Gareth Bale to Bellamy, - he holds his run...

1:30:30 > 1:30:35- ..takes everyone with him, - plays the ball from the angle...

1:30:35 > 1:30:39- ..and tells Sam Vokes, - "Put that in the net"...

1:30:39 > 1:30:41- ..and he obliges.

1:30:42 > 1:30:44- Great play from Wales.

1:30:44 > 1:30:49- A cracking run by Bale, the cross - comes across the six yard box...

1:30:49 > 1:30:53- ..with the perfect power - and a simple task for Sam Vokes.

1:30:54 > 1:30:58- Bale showing Bellamy what to do - in that position.

1:30:58 > 1:31:02- Straight across the goal - like a bullet to Sam Vokes.

1:31:02 > 1:31:06- Vokes still had some work to do. - It came across very quickly.

1:31:06 > 1:31:10- But it's over now. - Is there more to come?

1:31:10 > 1:31:12- Sam Vokes has just scored one.

1:31:13 > 1:31:16- It's two in a minute for Sam Vokes!

1:31:16 > 1:31:19- A minute to remember, - a game to remember for Wales!

1:31:19 > 1:31:24- Doubts about the result? - What doubts?! Wales 4, Norway 1.

1:31:24 > 1:31:27- Well, we talk about - clinical finishing.

1:31:27 > 1:31:32- You have to hand it to Bellamy, - he wins the ball.

1:31:33 > 1:31:35- Well...

1:31:35 > 1:31:38- ..they win the ball... - Kanu won the ball...

1:31:38 > 1:31:40- ..straight to Vokes.

1:31:40 > 1:31:43- Kanu is determined in the tackle.

1:31:43 > 1:31:47- Vokes has one thing on his mind. - Move the ball, open up the goal...

1:31:47 > 1:31:51- ..get the angle on the near post - and the rest is history!

1:31:51 > 1:31:54- Very clinical from him.

1:31:55 > 1:31:58- The smile is back - on Sam Vokes' face.

1:31:59 > 1:32:02- And the smile is back - for Welsh football.

1:32:02 > 1:32:05- Not the best performance - in the second half...

1:32:05 > 1:32:08- ..but who will care - when the final whistle goes?

1:32:08 > 1:32:12- They've scored four - and haven't been at their best.

1:32:13 > 1:32:16- It's great to say that. - There's so much more to come.

1:32:16 > 1:32:18- Is this another goal?

1:32:19 > 1:32:21- A chance for Jonathan Parr.

1:32:21 > 1:32:25- But Wales... What will - Steve Morison be thinking?

1:32:25 > 1:32:28- He's replaced by Vokes, - who scores two goals in a minute.

1:32:28 > 1:32:30- Wales with another substitution.

1:32:31 > 1:32:34- David Edwards is coming on for - the first time under Gary Speed.

1:32:34 > 1:32:37- He missed seven months - with a back injury.

1:32:38 > 1:32:40- Andy King was behind him...

1:32:40 > 1:32:44- ..so King and Edwards - are coming on to win caps.

1:32:47 > 1:32:51- We'll see who comes off. - Everyone is smiling now.

1:32:51 > 1:32:53- Craig Bellamy is one.

1:32:54 > 1:32:58- One of the most prominent players - again for Wales.

1:32:58 > 1:33:03- And the Cardiff City Stadium - stands as one to applaud...

1:33:03 > 1:33:05- ..Craig Bellamy.

1:33:05 > 1:33:08- He was a star here for a season - with the Bluebirds.

1:33:08 > 1:33:12- He's been a loyal servant - to Wales since the late '90s...

1:33:12 > 1:33:15- ..and continues to make - a contribution.

1:33:18 > 1:33:20- Dave Edwards replaces him.

1:33:21 > 1:33:24- And Aaron Ramsey leaves.

1:33:28 > 1:33:31- He passes the captaincy - on to Ashley Williams.

1:33:32 > 1:33:37- I'm listening for the reaction - and I'm not sure, to be honest.

1:33:37 > 1:33:40- Many of the fans - were applauding him.

1:33:40 > 1:33:42- But one or two making it known...

1:33:42 > 1:33:46- ..that they're unhappy - about the Team GB business.

1:33:51 > 1:33:53- Everyone is allowed an opinion...

1:33:53 > 1:33:58- ..and some Welsh fans making their - opinions heard this afternoon.

1:33:58 > 1:34:01- And everyone has a right - to do that.

1:34:01 > 1:34:05- The important thing is - that Wales have won again.

1:34:06 > 1:34:10- The momentum carries on, - the run continues...

1:34:10 > 1:34:13- ..the confidence grows.

1:34:17 > 1:34:21- And the rest of Europe, - the rest of the football world...

1:34:21 > 1:34:23- ..will see the score...

1:34:23 > 1:34:26- ..and know that Wales are back...

1:34:26 > 1:34:30- ..and Wales are finishing - looking for another goal.

1:34:32 > 1:34:36- A shot by the sub Andy King. - Leicester's top scorer last season.

1:34:36 > 1:34:39- And that's the last move - of the game.

1:34:41 > 1:34:46- The final whistle is drowned out - by the applause...

1:34:46 > 1:34:48- ..at the Cardiff City Stadium.

1:34:48 > 1:34:52- An incredible start, - a good finish.

1:34:52 > 1:34:55- It wasn't great in the middle - but no-one cares about that.

1:34:55 > 1:34:58- Wales have won four out of five.

1:34:58 > 1:35:01- And it's four against Norway.

1:35:01 > 1:35:04- The final score is - Wales 4, Norway 1.

1:35:06 > 1:35:10- That was Gary Speed's last - game as Wales manager.

1:35:10 > 1:35:15- A fortnight later, the manager, - the former captain...

1:35:15 > 1:35:19- ..and a hero to thousands of - supporters and players, was dead.

1:35:19 > 1:35:22- He was only 42-years-old.

1:35:22 > 1:35:27- The tragic news came as a - huge shock to everyone...

1:35:28 > 1:35:32- ..and there's no doubt that Wales' - young squad was severely affected.

1:35:32 > 1:35:38- Three months later, everyone came - together for a memorial match...

1:35:39 > 1:35:43- ..against Costa Rica, the country - Speed won his first cap against.

1:35:43 > 1:35:48- It was a night full of emotion, - a difficult night for his family...

1:35:48 > 1:35:53- ..and the Wales footballing family - united to remember one of the best.
