Wales made heavy weather of beatign Lexembourg in a friendly at Llanelli but eventually ran out comfortable winners.
As usual, players withdrew and, sadly, Simon Davies became the latest to retire. At 30 and still with plenty to offer, it is very premature and sad to see. Apparently, he became the 18th player to retire since Tosh took charge.
As for the game watched by just 4,500, Wales had carved only a couple of chances before David Cotterill blasted home Earnie's cross on 35 but they were rocked as the part-timers levelled, Kitenge's 20 yarder deflecting off Craig Morgan.
However it was one way traffic after the break which saw JOE LEDLEY restore the lead from the penalty spot (I don't think he's taken one before) three minutes into the second half and then Andy King, Ashley Williams and outstanding skipper Craig Bellamy completed the rout, the final two goals coming after Lexembourg had a man sent off.
Euro'2012 qualifiers start for Wales ina couple of weeks, hope this was worthwhile for them.
