Welsh captain rejects talk of ending international career
National team winger Wales Gareth Bale dismissed rumors of an international career ending after the team’s relegation from World Cup 2022 in Qatar.
“I will continue as long as I can and as long as I am needed. Now is a difficult moment. But we’re going again. Our qualifying campaign has started! [к чемпионату Европы] in March. I hope I will be a part of it.”
“Everyone is disappointed. I think we are all proud of what we have achieved to get here. Of course, I wanted to get out of the group, but football is difficult. Teams have good and bad results and we didn’t quite live up to our expectations in this tournament.”
Wales devastatingly lost to England (0:3) in the final round of group B. Bale himself did not finish the match due to injury.
Wales ended the group stage in last place in Quartet B. The Welsh have picked up just one point from three rounds.
