Montenegro v Wales, France v Belgium, and more: Nations League – live | Nations League




Key events

Weather report. The latest from Nikšić, brought to you by a friend of Football Weekly.

Wales away in Montenegro, this was the scene a couple of hours ago. The rain has now reduced from ‘Biblical’ to ‘classic Welsh winter.’ Who knows if the game will go ahead. That said, a very drunk local just guessed my age as 26 so I’ve never felt more alive pic.twitter.com/XZIMmguKYI

FULL TIME: Cyprus 0-4 Kosovo. The Kosovans hit the front early doors with a Vedat Muriqi penalty and never relinquished that ninth-minute lead. Muriqi added a second on 21 minutes, Albion Rrahmani made it three just after the break, and Lumbardh Dellova completed the scoring at the AEK Arena on 55 minutes. A fine response by Kosovo to Friday’s 3-0 defeat by Romania; Cyprus had won their first game 1-0 in Lithuania. Romania are hot favourites to win Group C2, but otherwise the division looks like developing into an interesting scrap.

The early signs suggest Craig Bellamy won’t be a manager who will die wondering. His first selection acquitted themselves well against Turkey last Friday, but he’s made five changes for tonight’s game in Montenegro nonetheless. In come Karl Darlow, Chris Mepham, Lewis Koumas, Kieffer Moore and Ollie Cooper, in place of Danny Ward, Aaron Ramsey, Brennan Johnson, Jordan James and Sorba Thomas. Leeds keeper Darlow is making his international debut at the age of 33.
