Wales' hopes of qualifying automatically for the UEFA European Championship 2024 suffered a devastating blow following an insipid draw with Armenia in Yerevan. Armenia, who defeated Wales 4-2 in Cardiff in June, took the lead through Lucas Zelarayan, one who hit a brace in their previous meeting. The visitors salvaged the draw before half-time thanks to an own goal from Nair Tiknizyan, but the stalemate means that Wales must now beat Group D leaders Turkiye and hope that Croatia, who beat Latvia 2-0, drop points against Armenia.
