  5. HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:37 British Summer Time 13 October 2019

    Wales 1-1 Croatia

    The half-time whistle goes and the mood in Cardiff is a lot better than it was going to be.

  6. YELLOW CARDpublished at 20:37 British Summer Time 13 October 2019

    Wales 1-1 Croatia

    Croatia defender Dejan Lovren was booked for moaning at the referee. He'll miss their next qualifier.

    It's a fantastic first touch from Gareth Bale. It's a shame that wasn't after 35 minutes so Wales had five to 10 minutes at Croatia now.

    I hope they don't come back out after half-time happy with a 1-1.

    Mateo Kovacic is limping off the pitch.

    Ben Davies may have fouled Mateo Kovacic in the build-up to that goal. No VAR in the qualifiers.

    Former Wales captain on BBC Radio Wales

    It's a great challenge from Ben Davies. I said how aggressive he was pre-match and he just nipped it away from the man. I don't think you'd have argued if the referee had given a foul but after that Gareth Bale does so well, I don't think anyone else would have finished that.

    GOAL - Wales 1-1 Croatiapublished at 45+3 mins

    Gareth Bale

    Brilliant.

    It's fantastic play from Ben Davies who runs from the halfway line and plays a one-two with Gareth Bale. He then plays in Bale, whose two touches take him past Dejan Lovren, and the captain guides a perfect shot into the bottom corner of the net.

    Wales 0-1 Croatia

    Jonny Williams is doing a lot of running onto Kieffer Moore flick-ons. At some stage you've got to think it'll work and bring a big chance.

  13. INJURY TIMEpublished at 45 mins

    Wales 0-1 Croatia

    Four minutes of injury time added on, mainly for Daniel James' injury.

  14. Postpublished at 45 mins

    Wales 0-1 Croatia

    It's been a bit niggly so far and Croatia's Bruno Petkovic fouls Connor Roberts near the halfway line.

    Ivan Perisic is wide one minute and then inside. Connor Roberts doesn't want to follow him because it leaves a huge space but it does mean Perisic is getting the ball in a lot of space.

    Giggs failing to show much managerial aptitude during his spell as Wales boss thus far. Some good attacking talents at his disposal and he looks short of ideas of how to use them.

    John, Bournemouth.

    A nice spell of possession for Croatia, who look so comfortable on the ball. Not too long until the break now.
