    Ben Woodburn has to switch on. He lost his man, the full-back. He must have been watching him the whole game.

    He was probably thinking about how he was going to change the game when he got on the ball but he has to be thinking about defending.

    That could have been really costly!

    Georgia 0-1 Wales

    Chance! A cracking through ball cuts Wales in two, right-back Otar Kakabadze is in on goal but panics and plays a terrible cross, over head height and nowhere near anybody!

    Take a touch and shoot, surely?! Right place, wrong man.

  4. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 90 mins

    Georgia 0-1 Wales

    Ben Woodburn does get a run-out, a few more minutes under his international belt. Goalscorer Tom Lawrence is the man to make way.

    Georgia 0-1 Wales

    Almost a classic case of commentator's curse as the Welsh defence suddenly opens up, Ashley Williams is pulled out of position but they recover really well to not dive in and make a silly tackle and see it through. Ben Davies eventually clears his lines.

    Georgia 0-1 Wales

    James Chester clears his lines once more. The Wales defence has been sound tonight.

    Three minutes of normal time left.

    Simon Lewis: Come on Wales see it through! Pinch the second now!

    Rob James: This is getting decidedly uncool! Don't panic Wales!!!

    Well done Hal Robson-Kanu! Takes the ball on his chest on halfway under pressure, finds Aaron Ramsey and then gets a return ball down the line and wins a throw 75 yards from his own goal. Textbook.

  9. 'Need to keep concentration'published at 18:43 British Summer Time 6 October 2017

    Wales just need to keep their concentration now. They can't let Georgia force them into panic mode.

    They still have the leading goal. Wales are starting to re-group a little bit more now which is nice!

    Georgia 0-1 Wales

    Aaron Ramsey urges his side out as they start to get a bit too deep. Almost a fine win on the road for Wales but it's not done yet...

  11. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 81 mins

    Georgia 0-1 Wales

    Wales change it up in midfield. One stalwart for another as Dave Edwards replaces Joe Ledley.

    That was a close one!

    Come on Ashley Williams, what was that?

    Wales have switched off.

  14. CLOSE!published at 80 mins

    Georgia 0-1 Wales

    Wales are in trouble here, a turnover in possession and Georgia have an overload on the left wing. They use it too, feeding Giorgi Merebashvili inside the area.

    He chops inside on to his right foot and shoots - blocked by a combination of Ashley Williams and Wayne Hennessey!

  15. 'Robson-Kanu made run too early'published at 18:38 British Summer Time 6 October 2017

    Georgia 0-1 Wales

    Kevin Ratcliffe
    Former Wales captain on BBC Radio Wales

    I think Hal Robson-Kanu made the run too early because he thought the ball was going to come in a little earlier. That was good play once again though.

    Well done Aaron Ramsey!

    Georgia 0-1 Wales

    Indeed, there are a few changes for Georgia too. Their winless run is set to continue unless they have a dramatically good final 15 minutes. So far, so good for Wales, who will then have a nervy watch of the Ireland Moldova game!

    Aaron Ramsey has been brilliant at times tonight and he again finds a pocket of space, lifting a ball to the far post but it's just over the head of Hal Robson-Kanu!

  17. 'Substitution is expected'published at 18:35 British Summer Time 6 October 2017

    Here comes Robson-Kanu and that substitution is what is expected.

    They are making a few changes too.

    Lets see what happens here.

    Georgia 0-1 Wales

    A change of legs up front as Sam Vokes is replaced by Hal Robson-Kanu. An excellent battling centre-forward display from the Burnley man.

    Into the last 20 minutes, the men in red are controlling the ball now as they search a killer second. Chris Gunter lashes a low cross across the goalmouth but there's nobody there.

    That was good play once again. Aaron Ramsey couldn't have hit a better shot that! He just looked like he was stretching a little.
