Craig Bellamy said he was “hurting” after Wales were beaten 2-0 by Denmark away from home in Nations League A, while insisting that his side will continue to develop.
The defeat saw Denmark outclass Wales as they secured a two-goal victory in the Nations League’s top tier. Wales were unable to prevent the hosts from claiming the result.
Bellamy acknowledged the personal disappointment caused by the loss, describing himself as hurting after the match. Despite that reaction, he maintained that Wales are still progressing and will improve over time.
