Questions over Wales form not unfair – Bellamy

Wales manager Craig Bellamy stated that scrutiny over his team's form is entirely fair as they prepare to host Norway in Cardiff on Thursday. Wales currently sit bottom of Nations League League A Group 4 following consecutive away defeats to Portugal and Denmark. The loss extended Wales' winless run to six matches, marking the most difficult phase of Bellamy's managerial tenure so far.

Wales face significant injury troubles, with David Brooks ruled out alongside Karl Darlow, Joe Rodon, Dylan Lawlor, and Harry Wilson. Bellamy also praised Norway forward Erling Haaland ahead of the match, comparing the prolific striker's rare blend of size and mobility to late New Zealand rugby union great Jonah Lomu.
