Euro 2016 has been a story of the underdog, and Wales continued that narrative on Friday as they progressed to the semi-finals.
Wales fought back from a goal down in stunning fashion to shock one of the pre-tournament favourites Belgium and claim a 3-1 win.
Goals from Ashley Williams, Hal Robson-Kanu and Sam Vokes ensured an incredible victory for Wales at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy after Radja Nainggolan had put Belgium ahead.
They will now face Portugal, who secured a place in the semi-finals with a penalty shoot-out victory over Poland on Thursday, and Cristiano Ronaldo took to social media to celebrate.
