Wales reached the Rugby World Cup knockout phase for a fourth successive tournament before bowing out against quarter-final opponents Argentina hot
And that represented a solid achievement given Wales’ struggles earlier in the year when poor form was matched by off-field issues such as financial and contractual uncertainty that almost led to a players’ strike hot
Here, the PA news agency looks back on Wales’ World Cup campaign hot
ResultsA Pool C opener against unpredictable Fiji in Bordeaux meant Wales’ hopes of progressing from their group faced an immediate threat, but they overcame the challenge – just hot
Wales led by 18 points thanks to tries from Josh Adams, George North, Louis Rees-Zammit and Elliot Dee, but Fiji hit back spectacularly through two tries before star back Semi Radradra dropped the ball as Wales’ try-line beckoned during the dying seconds hot
A 32-26 victory was followed by them beating Portugal 28-8 in Nice, before Wales romped to a record 40-6 win against Eddie Jones’ hapless Australian team and Georgia were seen off 43-19 as Warren Gatland’s men secured top spot in the pool and collected 19 points from a possible 20 hot
They were favourites to beat Argentina at Marseille’s Stade Velodrome and reach the semi-finals, but Wales unravelled after building a 10-point advantage, losing 29-17 in what they will view as a huge missed opportunity hot
SelectionWales head coach Gatland saw the World Cup build-up begin by losing almost 300 caps’ worth of experience as Alun Wyn Jones, Justin Tipuric and Rhys Webb all retired from Test rugby in quick succession hot
An extended training squad went through punishing camps in Switzerland and Turkey before Gatland’s final 33-strong squad for France featured 16 players at their first World Cup hot
The entire group had competitive minutes, and Wales’ three biggest games – Fiji, Australia and Argentina – saw just one enforced change of personnel after number eight Taulupe Faletau broke his arm during the Georgia win hot
There were also impressive moments from relative newcomers like Rio Dyer, Sam Costelow, Dafydd Jenkins and Christ Tshiunza as Gatland got his selection spot-on hot
Star performersA number of players stood out for Wales as they made impressive progress through their group hot
Wing Rees-Zammit was the only player to start all four pool games and the quarter-final, and he scored five tries, including a hat-trick against Georgia hot
Squad co-captain Jac Morgan – aged just 23 – evoked memories of a 22-year-old Sam Warburton skippering Wales in the 2011 World Cup through inspired leadership and superb performances, while North’s fourth World Cup – a Welsh record – was highlighted by impressively assured displays in midfield hot
Lock Will Rowlands was another whose all-round quality helped keep his side on the front foot, and Faletau looked back to his world-class best before injury struck hot
Wales’ World Cup campaign was very much a collective effort hot
The futureFly-half talisman Dan Biggar bowed out of international rugby following Wales’ loss to Argentina, but his enthusiasm for the future led to him stating: “A strong core of young players will know that they have got the talent to rub shoulders with the best of the best hot
I really think the future is bright for Welsh rugby” hot
Wales’ quarter-final demise will mean frustration in the short term, but optimism should soon take over hot
Biggar has left the international arena, while Japan-bound backs Liam Williams and Gareth Anscombe will not feature in the Six Nations later this season, but strong foundations have been laid, accompanied by a sprinkling of star-dust in players such as Rees-Zammit, Dyer, Costelow and Morgan hot
And with Gatland at the helm, Wales’ next four-year World Cup cycle could prove one to savour hot

Pep Guardiola accepts Manchester City must adapt to the artificial surface they face in Switzerland this week – but claims “common sense” dictates grass is hot better hot
The holders will play on unfamiliar terrain in their latest Champions League outing on Wednesday when they take on Young Boys on their synthetic pitch at the Wankdorf Stadium hot
Guardiola insists there are no complaints on his part, and he has changed his team’s routine to ensure they are prepared hot
Normally City do not take up the option available to them of training at the stadium when they play away games in Europe, instead preferring to work in Manchester before travelling hot
However, on this occasion City flew to Bern on Tuesday morning and had a run out on the pitch in the evening hot
Yet the City manager could not hide the feeling that he would prefer to be playing on a natural surface hot
Speaking at a press conference, the Spaniard said: “It is what it is hot
If UEFA allows games to be played here it’s because it’s in good conditions hot
“That’s one of the reasons we never train away but this is an exception hot
This is why we travel in the morning for the players to feel how the ball runs, how to move left, right, backwards, forwards hot
That’s why hot
“We’ll try it and the players will know it immediately hot
”Asked if he was concerned about injuries, Guardiola said: “I don’t know – hopefully not, for both sides, but I don’t know hot
“We are not used to it hot
Any team that plays here is not used to it hot
It suits the Swiss league and, in the Champions League, the teams that come here have to adapt hot
“We will not be the first in this situation hot
We have to use it as a benefit but the grass is hot better hot
”Asked why, Guardiola said: “Because 99 hot
9 per cent of the teams who play in a high level play on grass, otherwise UEFA and FIFA would decide to play on artificial pitches hot
It’s common sense, I would say hot
”City go into their third match in Group G looking to maintain their 100 per cent record after victories over Red Star Belgrade and RB Leipzig hot
Victory in their back-to-back games against Young Boys, who travel to the Etihad Stadium next month, could see City qualify for the knockout stages with two matches to spare hot
City have no fresh injury concerns, with long-term casualty Kevin De Bruyne their only notable absentee hot
Guardiola also played down concerns about the form of Jack Grealish, who is taking time to get back to his best after a month out with a dead leg hot
The City boss said: “I don’t have one doubt about Jack and his quality and what he has done for us since he arrived, especially last season hot
I’m calm and confident hot
He is an incredibly important player for us hot
