Thanks and goodnight

So that is all from Cardiff after a draw on a night that will be remembered primarily for Wayne Hennessey reaching 100 caps and the fundraising efforts for Ukraine.

However, there can be no doubt this has been another special international break for Wales, who continue their unbeaten run at the Cardiff City Stadium, where they are capable of giving any opponent a game.

Wales' World Cup dream is alive and well and the bond between the players and the fans continues to grow.

We will see you again in June for more international action.

In the meantime? Some of tonight's friends become foes, when Cardiff City host Swansea City on Saturday.

Welsh football isn't always as united as it has been this week!

Thanks for following along with us, Diolch.

'An honour every time' - Johnson

Wales forward Brennan Johnson told S4C:

“It was a good run-out for all of us, we all wanted to show what we could do.

“I was buzzing for Rubin to get the goal. We work well together in training and I think it showed tonight. We had a real good connection and I think that was good for the goal as well.

“Coming away with Wales is an honour for me every time. The result on Thursday and the performance tonight, it just shows the character of the squad and how close everyone is.

“There are a lot of young boys coming in. With the older boys as well, it’s a really good mixture.”

'A very special moment' - Hennessey

Wales centurion Wayne Hennessey told S4C:

“It’s a very special moment. I was very touched, I had a lovely round of applause from the fans, [then] every single player waiting for me at the side and Gareth waiting for me as well.

“That was a special moment, for Gareth to come and wait for me – we are so close.

“I had a special moment in the dressing room as well. You guys don’t get to see that.

“It was special to see Neville Southall and get that award from him [before the game], an absolute legend.

“Rubin took the goal really well. it’s not just him – there are a few youngsters in there who have gelled in really well."

The young players have shown they can manage it, they're up to it, they're showing no fear, like they've played 30 or 40 games which is a massive plus for Rob Page.

You might start to see the older players dip out of these friendlies with these youngsters coming through and producing.

It hits you quite emotionally because you can understand and empathise with how Wayne is feeling.

There's probably no other feeling like it in football.

FULL-TIME

That's it, no injury time at all.

Wales dominated for periods, but a draw is probably fair.

A decent game and an historic night for Wayne Hennessey.

That was the chance!

The visitors turn over the ball and Gareth Bale is away, but shockingly his first touch is horrible and sends him too wide, allowing Tomas Vaclik to save his shot at his near post.

Could and should have been more for Wales, especially considering who had the ball.

Gareth Bale shoots from 30 yards, but I think that's enough miracles from him for one week.

A comfortable save for Tomas Vaclik.

The majority of our players aren't starting for their clubs, so to put in back to back performances like this is a credit to them.

A dangerous cross from the visitors is brilliantly cut out by Rhys Norrington-Davies, before substitute Adam Hlozek shoots over, despite having time and space.

A decent chance that.

Will we have a winner?

I think for me Brennan Johnson is man of the match, head and shoulders above.

His quality, everything about his game tonight, every time he had the ball he wanted to go forward and create something.

That's the sign of a top-quality player.

Wales now with a front three who play for Cardiff City, Swindon Town.... and Real Madrid.

SUBSTITUTION

More changes....

Adam Hlozek is on for the visitors for Ondrej Lingr who didn't stay any Lingr.

For Wales, Mark Harris and a fella named Gareth Bale are introduced for Rubin Colwill and Brennan Johnson.

Gareth Bale immediately nicks the captain's armband back from Joe Rodon.

CLOSE!

The visitors break and Tomas Soucek has a chance to score a second, but his shot was straight at Adam Davies.

Ben Cabango slips over again and concedes a needless free-kick.

Swansea fans will be hoping he's getting his mistakes out the way.

Swansea are back here on Saturday for the south Wales derby.

Bromance alive and well in Cardiff...

A nice moment between the all time clean-sheet leader and men's top goal scorer for Wales.

SUBSTITUTION

Yet another change as Jonny Williams is on for Rabbi Matondo.

I think Matondo, Rubin Colwill and especially Brennan Johnson have all done a good job tonight of furthering their cases for selection.

He's so quick again, Brennan Johnson.

Petrasek and Brabek are treading water.

You couldn't catch him, brilliant pace.

He deserves a goal tonight.

Brennan Johnson races clear again, this time he opts to square the ball when he should probably shoot and David Zima is able to clear.

Wales on top. A winner is there for them if they push for it.

We have just heard one of the biggest cheers of the night at the Cardiff City Stadium.

Why? Because Gareth Bale is warming up.
