Just get the ball to Daniel James as often as they can. Get him into one-on-on situations. I think he's got the beating of Celik every time he gets the ball

Oh my.
Gareth Bale spots Aaron Ramsey, his pass is perfect and the Juventus man has acres in the penalty area, but he blazed the ball over.
That was a golden, golden chance.

That man Dan James again, he speeds clear but his cross is cut out.
Wales have seen they can hurt Turkey already. It's just about taking the chances when they come.

Magnificent play from Wales again. They need to take one of these chances though!
Fantastic positive, aggressive start to the game.

The "Daniel James is Wales' most dangerous attacking player," narrative continues.
He's been excellent so far. Turkey are scared of him.

I think this game is going to come down to fitness. Both teams are going for it and playing very good football.

The two opportunities Wales has created have come from this left hand side. This time its James to Moore just as it was against Switzerland.
Good start from Robert Page's side though.

Gareth Bale's header looks goalbound, Wales then appeal furiously for a penalty for a handball. Not given.
It would have been harsh, seeing it back, it hit Caglar Soyuncu on the elbow.

A first sniff for Kieffer Moore as Daniel James finds him with a hanging cross, but he heads over at the back post.
It was a tough angle.

It's building to be a really good game, it's what we hoped for with both teams really going for it.
Any chance they're getting to attack they're taking it.

What a start to this game, played at a quick pace and with a crackling atmosphere.
Wales seem like they're really responding to the challenge of playing in front of this Turkish-Azeri crowd.

Now Turkey come close as they catch out Wales with a quick free-kick and Burak Yilmaz fired wide from just inside the penalty area, with Chris Mepham getting a vital block.
The corner comes to nothing.
