- Published

Wales' 2018 World Cup dreams are over after being beaten by the Republic of Ireland.

Wales hosted the match at Cardiff City Stadium and managed to gain control in the first half.

Gareth Bale, who is injured, could only look on and watch, as his team started to struggle.

It was this goal in the 57th minute from James McClean that would end Wales' hopes.

Wales then put all their effort into snatching the play-off place back but they didn't manage to score any goals.

Wales manager, Chris Coleman, says he's undecided about his future in charge of the team after the loss.

After Wales' success at Euro 2016 last year, the nation will be disappointed their World Cup hopes are already over before it has even begun.
