Gareth Bale was the hero once again as Wales claimed a 1-0 play-off win over Ukraine to secure their spot in the 2022 World Cup and set up a meeting with England in Qatar.In a sodden Cardiff City stadium, Ukraine had the better of the opening exchanges, with Viktor Tsyhankov, Roman Yaremchuk and Oleksandr Zinchenko all forcing Wales stopper Wayne Hennessey into saves early on. However, once again, it was Bale who would produce the game's defining moment of brilliance.The Welsh captain saw his fizzed free-kick deflect in off West Ham's Andriy Yarmolenko as the Dragons opened the scoring shortly after the half-hour mark.
