Don't Take Me Home

The remarkable story of how Wales rose through the Fifa world rankings and on to their first international tournament for 58 years.

In 2015, Wales hadn't qualified for a major football tournament since 1958. When the young national manager, Gary Speed, tragically took his own life in 2011, a youthful side and nation was left devastated. Qualification felt further away than ever and less important. However, spurred on by the enduring memory of the late manager, Wales qualified for Euro 2016. How would they fare?
