Wales players not scared of anyone in World Cup play-offs

Aaron Ramsey and Kieffer Moore insisted Wales will not fear facing any of their potential opponents on home soil in the World Cup play-offs for Qatar 2022.

Wales finished second in Group E to earn home advantage in March’s play-offs after they fought back from a goal down to draw 1-1 with Belgium on Tuesday.

Kevin De Bruyne had put Belgium ahead early in the game before Moore equalised just after the half hour.

Moore’s goal was his eighth for Wales since making his international debut in September 2019 – more than any other Wales player in that time.

“It’s so important to get a home draw,” Moore told Sky Sports.

“If you look at the teams that have come in second, the likes of Portugal and Italy – it’s been a bit nervy. But nights like this, I’d back us to take on anyone.

“We left everything out there. We gave everything for that performance because we knew we needed a result.

“The noise after that goal, it was just incredible. I can’t explain it, I was lost for words. It’s some feeling, I’ll say that. The Red Wall [Wales fans] are amazing.

“We knew that Belgium would try and keep as much possession as much as possible so we knew we had to be compact, be tight and not let them through us so that we could get them on the counter-attack.”

Hold on tight, FIFA World Cup Play-Offs are going to be one heck of a ride!!! #TogetherStronger pic.twitter.com/hh4qqtwwar
