CARDIFF: Gareth Bale claimed a point for Wales as they drew 1-1 with World Cup runners-up Croatia on Sunday which left their Euro 2020 qualifying hopes on a knife-edge.

Wales' first shot on target came shortly afterwards with Bale testing Dominik Livakovic with a half-volley.Hennessey then made up for failing to stop Vlasic's effort on 13 minutes when he dived down low to stop an Ivan Perisic shot. The former Swansea winger competed with Domagoj Vida for a high ball and the Welshman finished on the ground. He received medical treatment and continued.Tottenham defender Ben Davies beat Mateo Kovacic and found Bale inside the box who cooly placed his shot across Livakovic for his 33rd international goal.Wales forward Kieffer Moore, who scored on his international debut in the midweek draw at Slovakia, caused Croatia's defence trouble in the air throughout.

Bale's Real teammate Luka Modric was substituted due to injury with a leg problem while the Welsh winger himself seemed to struggle through the closing moments with an issue himself.
