Aaron Ramsey produced a superb performance to help his country reach the last four of Euro 2016 on a famous night for Welsh football. The Arsenal midfielder and his team-mates had to come from behind, after Radja Nainggolan put Belgium ahead with a fiercely-struck long-range effort. Ramsey and Wales responded well, and the 25-year-old set up their equaliser when his inviting corner was nodded in by Ashley Williams. He added his second assist of the evening after the break, crossing for Hal Robson-Kanu, who finished superbly. Ramsey was booked soon after - he will be suspended for the semi-final as a result - but substitute Sam Vokes made sure of Wales' progression late on, heading home Chris Gunter's cross.
