Harry Wilson looks forward to Wales’ World Cup clash against England
Harry Wilson has warned England that Wales will be no World Cup pushovers.
Wales joined England, the United States and Iran in Group B at Qatar by beating Ukraine in Sunday’s play-off final in Cardiff.

It will be their first meeting since England beat Wales 2-1 at Euro 2016, although the Dragons went on to claim top spot in the group and reach the semi-finals of the competition.

“We will be having a bit of banter about them, but once those games come around we will be against each other for 90 minutes.
“I will be doing all I can for Wales and they will be doing all their can for their country.”
