Wales 0 - 2 Bosnia: Coleman still awaits first Wales victory

Wales’ preparations for their World Cup qualification campaign ended on a sobering note with defeat against Bosnia-Herzegovina in Llanelli.

Goals from Vedad Ibisevic and Miroslav Stevanovic gave the visitors, inspired by a terrific performance from Manchester City’s Edin Dzeko, a deserved win.

The closest Wales came to a goal was when Joe Allen hit the crossbar in the first half, while Gareth Bale also threatened sporadically, but it was a dispiriting night for the hosts.

Manager Chris Coleman, still searching for a first win in charge, had highlighted this as a key fixture with qualification fixtures looming. But he will know there is plenty of work to be done before Belgium visit Cardiff in the Group A opener in little over three weeks.
