Wales will be without star midfielder Aaron Ramsey for the upcoming international friendly matches against the likes of Netherlands.

Manager Chris Coleman says this is a great opportunity for the team to test its quality without key names. Ramsey and Gareth Bale have been the two big players for Wales. Their presence has contributed to the team performing exceptionally well and reaching the Euro 2016 well ahead of schedule. Playing at this major tournament will be a major boost for the national team and they will be hoping to capitalise on the benefit of the future generation.

Wales suffered a major setback in their hopes of qualification to the Euro 2016 after only managing a 0-0 draw against Israel at Cardiff’s millennium stadium.

Three consecutive victories appeared to have put Wales in command of the group. Belgium were seen as the main contender for Chris Coleman’s team, but they have been disappointing up until now.

Their form has significantly improved in recent matches with Belgium suffering only one defeat in the last five. Wales, meanwhile, have managed only three wins during this period. It has seen Belgium reduce the lead at the top of the table to just one point.
