I’m sure I could feel the waves of relief spreading from the Millennium Stadium as Sam Vokes managed to scuff home the only goal of the game in the Wales versus Azerbaijan world cup qualifier …

With only 17,106 in the stadium, this performance is unlikely to encourage larger attendances in future - but hey thanks Sam.

Jason Gillespie 5-13 against … sublime…

It could have been an even bigger win as this picture taken after 11 overs testifies.
