Watch|Wales vs Northern Ireland|Match Highlights| EURO 2016|25 June 2016
A late own goal by Gareth McAuley sent Wales reached to the quarter-finals of Euro 2016 with a 1-0 win over Northern Ireland at the Parc des Princes on Saturday.
Northern Ireland shaded much of the game and largely snuffed out Wales’ attacking threat, but they also lacked a cutting edge in attack.
Wales only managed one shot on target and the game was settled by the one moment of real quality at Parc des Princes.
Northern Ireland’s resistance was finally broken when centre-back McAuley turned Gareth Bale’s low, whipped cross into his own net.
It means Wales – in their first major tournament finals since the 1958 World Cup – will face Belgium or Hungary in the last eight in Lille on Friday.
