Why beating Denmark matters to Wales' Euro 2028 hopes

There has not been much time for Craig Bellamy and Wales to enjoy their Nations League win over Norway.

After taking one Scandinavian scalp, the task is to claim another as Denmark come to Cardiff City Stadium on Sunday (19:45 BST).

Victory would mean recording back-to-back wins over higher-ranked nations for the first time in more than a decade.

It also offers an opportunity to take a huge step towards securing their top-tier Nations League status – and significantly boost their Euro 2028 qualification hopes.

Was long-awaited win a turning point for Bellamy?

Wales' win over Norway was their first in this Nations League A campaign, and followed opening defeats in Portugal and Denmark.

This is Wales' second crack at League A, having suffered immediate relegation without a win in their previous campaign at this level under Rob Page in 2022.
