Gareth Bale will attend first Wales game since retirement
Aaron Ramsey says Croatia draw was important marker

Wales will give Gareth Bale a warm send-off before hosting Latvia on Tuesday with the manager, Rob Page, hailing the “fresh energy” that has swept into his team thanks to changes to the squad and staff after the World Cup.

Bale will be in attendance for the Euro 2024 qualifier at the Cardiff City Stadium, the first game to take place there since the 33-year-old announced his retirement. Bale, who is Wales’s all-time leading male goalscorer and widely considered to be his country’s greatest player, has since played golf at Pebble Beach on the PGA Tour.
