England comes into this game after a 2-1 loss to the French, which has seriously damaged their chances of making the group stages and left them in a very precarious position in the group of death.
Wales is the lowest-ranked country in the Euros and 30th in the world. Still, they have fans. In their first match, they reported having 3,800 fans compared to the Dutch's 3,000.
