    Bosnia-Herzegovina 0-0 Wales

    Big in NJ! Wales have the world watching. A draw is enough tonight of course and at the moment that is looking like the likely outcome. Can Wales get the ball to Gareth Bale?

    Great closing down by Wales. It all starts with Jazz Richards who sprints out, then everybody has to follow suit. If they don't, they get caught out.

    Aaron Ramsey! He takes a fee-kick from 40 yards or so out, everyone expects the cross, Asmir Begovic creeps off his line and at the last second Ramsey decides to go for goal. It's a cracking effort too, Begovic knows he is in trouble but the ball drifts over the top...

    Bosnia still seeing all of the ball. Hal Robson-Kanu must get through the most yards covered per touch in international football. He's a professional closer-down...

    Ivan Perisic has given Croatia an early lead over Bulgaria, to keep alive their hopes of automatic qualification from Group H. In that same group, Italy confirmed their place at Euro 2016 with victory over Azerbaijan earlier.

    The Wales defence has been lauded through the competition but they get this one all wrong! First there is a slip from Ben Davies, Miralem Pjanic dives in and feeds a pass into the run of Edin Visca. Great pass, he's onside - but drags a shot just beyond the far corner...

    Joe Allen has been breaking things up and starting things off from midfield. That is what he is there to do.

    Well played Hal Robson-Kanu! The lone frontman holds it up well before releasing Aaron Ramsey into space. The Arsenal man plays a blind cross in but it's a good one, Neil Taylor is in space at the far post but can't control a difficult volley on the stretch. Bright start from both sides in Zenica.

    Promising stuff for the Wales gameplan as one clearance from Ashley Williams lets Gareth Bale loose on the Bosnian defence. He beats one man, but delays his pass to Hal Robson-Kanu and is eventually shut down.

    The hosts seeing all of the ball in the opening stages as Wales drop into a well-drilled line-up. That three-man defence very quickly becomes a back five as Jazz Richards and Neil Taylor drop in.

    As the locals promised, the Bilinol Polje Stadium is bouncing - and quite literally too.

    The vociferous home fans are bouncing in unison - like a front-facing Poznan - and creating an almighty din.

    It's difficult to compete with such noise but Wales' travelling contingent are doing a sterling job as they try to do so with a rendition of 'Men of Harlech'.

    It shouldn't be forgotten the job Gary Speed did with what was a young side, got them passing the ball and restored some credibility, they passed England off the park in a losing effort at Wembley, Bale played right wing that day, everyone said "why's Speed put him there?", now he plays there every week for one of the world's best teams

    Former Wales striker

    "When Gary Speed was taken away from us, the whole country was in mourning and these players were realty affected by it. So for Chris Coleman to have come in and picked the team up and to have moved forward the way they have has been magnificent."     

    It will be four years next month since Wales manager Gary Speed died at the age of 42.

    Bosnia-Herzegovina v Wales (19:45 BST)

    Wales manager Chris Coleman: "The mood is good, we know what is coming. This is a notoriously difficult place to come, it will be hostile but we are looking forward to this.

    "It's Bosnia's last chance. They will be aggressive and streetwise. But in all honesty we have done what we have always done.

    "Having Gareth Bale fit is a boost, whether he can play for 90 minutes is another matter."

    Lewis Lloyd: I know it's not Wales related, but if Ukraine don't beat Spain, Romania & Hungary will both qualify with one as best 3rd team   

    We'll try and keep you all updated on all of the goings on elsewhere tonight. Plenty of maths to be worked out yet.
