WALES QUALIFY
Wales forward Gareth Bale: "The best defeat of my life! It was a difficult game but we have done it and everyone is very happy.
"This is right up there in my career. It was a dream from when I was a small child to play in a major tournament. It doesn't stop here, we have business to do in France.
"We can breathe a sigh of relief and enjoy the occasion. We are like brothers on the pitch. If we lose the ball we fight for it back. We can now test ourselves against the best."

Bosnia-Herzegovina 2-0 Wales
Wales midfielder Aaron Ramsey, speaking to Sky Sports: "What a great moment for Welsh football. What an achievement to have made history, we are finally going to a major tournament. It's not going to sink in for a while, I'm so proud. We are finally going.
"This group of players is quite special. It didn't quite happen tonight, but the togetherness, we've been really hard to beat.
"This has been a dream of mine, I know for the others it's been the same. We’re only a small nation, but we've done it. We're over the moon. Thanks to all the supporters. See you in France!"

Bosnia-Herzegovina 2-0 Wales
Quote MessageChris Coleman was disappointed, he was livid and didn't shake hands with anybody. A Welsh FA member came over and told him Israel had lost, and then he ran with his arms aloft to the Wales supporters. They are so, so happy that it has been done. These players have done what other Wales players have not been able to do. They deserve it.

Wales defender Chris Gunter: "It is disappointing to lose tonight but we have waited 65 years for this. This means more than a game of football. It's a special feeling.
"We knew we could qualify last month and we had to wait but it will be a good night. There are 40 people here who have worked hard for two or three years."
Chris added on a few more years of hurt there...

Wales manager Chris Coleman: "I thought we did enough to get something out of the game, I was gutted coming off but wow! I can't explain how it feels.
"These fans are unbelievable. They deserve it. It's a dream. For the first time tonight we got a bit flustered but under the circumstances you can understand that.
"But we conceded four goals in nine games. It's fantastic. We've all dreamed about this. They have delivered"

Bosnia-Herzegovina 2-0 Wales
Quote MessageNot dealing well with crosses for either goal. Wales don't deal with the second ball again. They have suffered by not being as resilient as the have in the past. The unbeaten record goes. The disappointing thing is that Bosnia are not a great side.

GOAL - Bosnia-Herzegovina 2-0 Walespublished at 21:34 British Summer Time 10 October 2015
Vedad Ibisevic (90 mins)
Huge celebrations as Wales concede another very scrappy goal. A corner is not dealt with at the front post, Milan Djuric shoots across goal and Vedad Ibisevic is on hand to smash in from a few yards out.
Wales still going through...

Wales add Simon Church and Dave Edwards to the mix - you can't knock Chris Coleman for attacking subs.
YELLOW CARDpublished at 82 mins
Bosnia-Herzegovina 1-0 Wales
Bosnia have now made all of their subs so we won't be seeing Edin Dzeko tonight. Aaron Ramsey does too much this time as he loses the ball and then gets booked as he tries to win the ball back.
Wales eight minutes away from defeat - but qualification...
