I thought Commentators were supposed to be impartial. The Welsh commentator was absurdly biased it was sickening.

I know….but if you are going to be one of two commentators you can’t sit there gushing all over Wales for 90 minutes. You have to give credit where it’s due and be impartial.

I agree....the way he gushed over Bale was nauseating. He did nothing other than score a penalty.

The commentators sadly can't reign it in sometimes.

Tbf though I'd probably be the same as them though, especially if it were Blues playing.
