Club rivalries are supposed to be put to one side during international tournaments but clashes are unavoidable as numbers of Premier League players come up against one another.
England’s clash with Wales today was always going to be an emotionally-charged affair, especially given some of the comments from Chris Coleman’s camp this week about their opponents’ supposed lack of passion.
Wales came into the match as underdogs but matched their spirited display against Slovakia last week in the early moments but shutting down a number of England moves.
And tempers flared as early as the fourth minute when Arsenal ace Aaron Ramsey squared up to Spurs rival Dele Alli after the Tottenham midfielder appeared to shove the Welshman when the ball was out of play.
