Wales’ hopes of reaching Euro 2025 were dented by a 2-1 playoff semi-final first-leg defeat to Slovakia in Poprad, while Scotland beat Hungary 1-0 in Budapest.
Stunning second-half strikes from Martina Surnovska and Maria Mikolajova gave Slovakia a two-goal lead against below-par visitors, but Ffion Morgan’s excellent 89th-minute finish gave Rhian Wilkinson’s side hope for Tuesday’s second leg in Cardiff.
