The bosses at the Welsh Football Association seem to think so after Harry Wilson's hat-trick in Cardiff last night.

Scottish fans may have something to say about that though.

When I walked into the Cardiff City Stadium at 5pm, I never expected such a performance after the win in Liechtenstein.

I never expected us to score seven goals, the first time we’ve scored seven goals in a game since 1978. The first time Craig Bellamy has won back-to-back games.

To score seven goals against a team who were so good defensively, they’d only conceded three times in the campaign, and they hadn’t conceded away from home and hadn’t lost.

The attacking patterns were worth watching, they lifted the fans out of their seats. The goals were incredible. It was a great night. Incredible.

Absolutely Wales could have topped that group.

Craig Bellamy took over a year, year and a half ago. We’ve seen this team grow and grow and just because of timing we’ve got better as we’ve grown. This team has grown into what we saw last night.

We haven’t seen a 90 minute performance yet, until last night.

When the pressure was on its North Macedonia haven’t conceded away from home all of those things but they come to Wales and get thrashed.

I think Bellamy, he didn’t show it after the game but he is super happy. His picture in his mind of what Wales looks like that was it last night.

Craig Bellamy emphasised before the game that there was no pressure. But there was pressure on the players going into the game.

Consistency has been a problem in the performances. We’ve seen spells of 15 or 20 minutes from the players in certain games, but we’ve never seen it for 90 minutes.

The way Craig Bellamy described it as near perfect, OK we conceded a silly goal, but I would say it was a perfect performance.

The team, the fans and Craig Bellamy were all stars last night.

That must be one of the greatest nights in Welsh football history. That's something special. Nearly a perfect performance apart from that one goal against.

Wales fans were also celebrating while BBC Radio Wales pundits Danny Gabbidon and Nathan Blake's reactions were also caught on camera at Cardiff City Stadium in a World Cup qualifier that keeps the hopes of Craig Bellamy's side alive via the play-offs.

Let's switch focus for half an hour or so, because Scotland were not the only home nation to record an impressive win last night.

Wales ensured a higher seeding for the World Cup play-offs by thrashing North Macedonia 7-1, in a statement performance by Craig Bellamy's side...

There have been a lot of column inches about Scott McTominay’s transformation into one of the best attacking midfielders in Europe since his move from Manchester United to Napoli – but the Scot has been producing on the international stage as well.

McTominay’s first goal for Scotland didn’t come until his 27th cap, his second didn’t come until his 37th appearance but since then he has averaged roughly a goal every 2½ games.

His sensational strike that opened the scoring for Scotland against Denmark last night was his 14th for his country. Since the start of 2023, the 28-year-old has been involved in 15 goals for Scotland, six more than any of his teammates, and he has scored more than twice as many as any of them.

His international form in some senses mirrors his club form, which saw him win Serie A Player of the Year – and a Ballon d’Or nomination – as he helped Napoli claim the 2024-25 league title.

In the final match of the season, it was his spectacular scissor-kick volley that set Napoli on their way to clinch Lo Scudetto. And in the final match of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, he produced another stunning overhead kick to put Scotland on the road to America.

They worked their socks off, got a few breaks, and scored three incredible goals that will never be forgotten.

The first one is the best overhead kick I have ever seen. You practice free kicks, shooting, but not overhead kicks. I never scored one, never attempted one, few players do as it's such a difficult thing. What a time to get it right, a perfect execution.

For him to think that at that moment in time, and to hit it to perfection - it was written in the stars that we would qualify.

Scott McTominay's overhead kick even received a nod of approval from Scottish royalty, Sir Andy Murray.

The former tennis world number one took to X immediately after McTominay had given Scotland the lead to show his appreciation for the strike.

And here's the strike that got the ball rolling in all its glory...

"Scott McTominay scored the best overhead kick I've ever seen and it might not have been the best goal of the night."

The words of Scotland head coach Steve Clarke, talking about what might quite literally be the high point of the Napoli midfielder's career.

Just three minutes into the decisive World Cup qualifier against Denmark, McTominay leapt and with him, almost lifted Hampden from its very soil in the south side of Glasgow. But there was more to come.

No Scotland fan would have believed that further incredible goals would come over the next 95 minutes. Yet with so much on the line, this team scored three of the best goals in their 153-year footballing history.

Archie Gemmill against the Netherlands in 1978, James McFadden against France in 2007, and Shaun Maloney against Ireland seven years later all now have serious competition.

Scott McTominay scored one of the greatest goals Hampden Park has ever seen and yet the goals that followed means there is an actual debate around whether it was even the best goal on the night.

Shall we deep-dive them all and show the clips? I think we ought to.
