Danny Ward’s Leicester City Nightmare Is Not His Fault, Says Wales Boss Rob Page

Ethan Ampadu Is Wales' Captain In Waiting, Says Boss Rob Page
Ethan Ampadu can steer Wales towards the Euro 2024 finals on Thursday night – by underlining why he is their next Celtic warrior leader after Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey. Ampadu will win his 50th cap at the age of just 23 when Wales host Finland in their crunch play-off semi-final in Cardiff. It’s a landmark achievement which Wales manager Rob Page insists proves Ampadu is likely to be his country’s next long-term captain in succession to Bale and Ramsey.
Normal service was resumed in the South Wales derby as Liam Cullen and Jamal Lowe scored the goals that barely reflected the total dominance of Swansea City over rivals Cardiff in a 2-0 home win. Despite arriving on the back of a four-match winning streak - a run that had prompted optimism around a late promotion surge - Cardiff were second best in every aspect. "We won in a really positive way and I can't argue with the way we went about it today," said Swans head coach Luke Williams.
Warren Gatland insisted he can see light at the end of the tunnel – even though things looked so dark for him minutes before that he offered to quit. The Wales coach said he volunteered to fall on his sword after Wales hit rock bottom by picking up their first Wooden Spoon in 21 years, following the 24-21 defeat at home to Italy. Wales are now officially down among the dead men of world rugby after slumping to a second successive home defeat to Italians to end their Six Nations campaign without a win.

Something Stirs For Josh Adams . . . But It’s Not Made Of Silver Or Gold
Josh Adams is used to silverware not stirring utensils, but times have changed from his carefree entry into Test rugby six years ago. The Wales wing won a Grand Slam in 2019, another Six Nations title in 2021, was a Lions tourist that same year, and finished the top tryscorer at the 2019 World Cup.
