The dragons took off into a two-target lead inside 20 minutes as Aaron Ramsey dinked the ball over Igor Akinfeev, before Neil Taylor scored his first goal for his country.

Russia pretty much hit back as Artem Dzyuba compelled a respectable extra from Wayne Hennessey, in what wound up being his side’s restrictive certified plausibility of scoring past a common Wales side who implied at no an eventual outcome from their last-wheeze 2-1 demolition to England in Lens.

Gareth Bale netted his third target of the opposition in the second half to put the what finish off an effectively good thing for Wales, who bested their pool after England drew 0-0 with Slovakia in Sacred individual Etienne.

Wales will now go up against the third-put side from either Group A, C or D in the continue going 16 in Paris on Saturday in the wake of pipping England to top spot.

For Wales, the result in like manner addresses a measure of backlash for their Euro 2004 play-off destruction because of Russia, who are without further ado left to contemplate a campaign reviled by off-field issues and poor displays, finishing fourth with just a point to their name.
