The Welsh and English national teams are through to the knockout stages of the ongoing UEFA Euro 2016 after the final round of games in Group B.
Wales beat Russia 3-0 to top the table at their first European Championship, with England finishing second after a 0-0 draw with Slovakia.
The top two teams in each of the six groups qualify automatically, plus the best four third-placed sides.
Chris Coleman’s side – led by the tournament’s top scorer Gareth Bale – destroyed Russia to leapfrog England and reach the knockout stage of a major finals for only the second time in their history.
England were frustrated by a resolute Slovakian defence but manager Roy Hodgson also came in for criticism after making six changes, which included the decision to rest captain Wayne Rooney.
Wales goals were scored by Arsenal’s Aaron Ramsey, Neil Taylor and Gareth Bale, who is now the tournament’s leading scorer with three goals from three matches.
Wales will play a third-place team from either Group A (Albania), Group D (Czech Republic, Croatia or Turkey) or Group C (Germany, Poland or Northern Ireland).
While, England will face the second-placed team in Group F in Nice on Monday, and that could be Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal or Austria, Hungary or Iceland, who can all still finish second.
It is the fourth time England have reached the knockout stages of a European Championship after achieving the feat in 1996, 2004 and 2012..
