    Wales finally get numbers in the box, but Rhys Norrington-Davies' touch let him down and a good crossing opportunity is lost.

    The game is drifting towards half time now.

    It's not been a bad half but you can tell both sides have made a raft of changes.

    Lots of big hitters could come on in the second half.

    Jonny Williams always looks really good in a Wales shirt.

    I know it's not that simple and that a million factors go into these things, but with the greatest of respect to Swindon Town, he's too good for League Two, isn't he?

    Harry Wilson is suspended for Sunday's World Cup qualifier against Belarus but, judging by his recent run of form, he could be due a good performance against Estonia next Wednesday.

    To pick up on a point Nathan Blake made on BBC Radio Wales, the referee is officiating this game like you'd expect, every little niggle is a foul.

    And it's noticeably really annoying after these free-flowing Premier League games.

    I had almost forgotten how aggravating it is to watch this stop, start, stop football.

    Nice link-up play on the right from Wales but Jonny Williams' cross is just too close to the goalkeeper.

    I think that's a poor penalty.

    Wales haven't had much luck with penalties recently and I think that was more of a poor penalty than a good save.

    Brennan Johnson has been Wales' brightest spark and his run to win the penalty underlined that.

    However, Wales have a pretty rotten recent record with penalties and Harry Wilson's effort was really, really tame. An apology of a penalty.

    Awful penalty by Harry Wilson.

    His effort is really tame and Carljohan Eriksson saves on his debut!

    Brennan Johnson wriggles clear, Niko Hämäläinen brings him down...

    There's not much of a pattern in the game at the moment.

    Lots of niggly fouls that aren't allowing the game to flow. The referee is being a bit too picky and needs to let it flow.

    A quick Finland break but Wales deal with it very comfortably.

    A game short on incident so far but it's being played at a good pace for a friendly.

    Both sides look like they are making personnel and system adjustments, which they are.

    Wales will be happy with their start, 3-4-3 seems to suit them.

    Asymmetrical team photos have become a bit of a signature for Wales in recent years, with the players lining up in all sorts of unorthodox positions.

    Not today. This one is about as straightforward as they come.

    Wales need to be careful, they're not going to get that much time on the ball in the midfield and Finland are a good team.

    Wales and Wolves goalkeeping coach Tony Roberts has also been looking to the future.

    The former Queens Park Rangers shot stopper says helping his country reach the World Cup would be the pinnacle of his career.

    Ex-Wales keeper Roberts has sights set on Qatar 2022 having been to the European Championship this summer.
