Romania v Wales: Teams to play summer friendly at Bucharest’s Steaua Stadium


Wales will face Romania in a friendly in Bucharest on Saturday, 6 June.

Having failed to qualify for this summer’s World Cup, Craig Bellamy’s side will take on the Romanians – who were also beaten in last month’s World Cup play-offs – at the 31,000-seater Steaua Stadium.

It will be the first meeting of the nations since the infamous game in Cardiff 1993, when Paul Bodin missed a penalty as Wales lost out to Romania in their bid to qualify for the 1994 World Cup.

In the same qualifying campaign Wales lost 5-1 at the Steaua Stadium in May 1992.

This summer’s Romania trip comes four days after Wales take on Ghana at Cardiff City Stadium in another friendly on Tuesday, 2 June.

The kick-off time in Romania is to be confirmed.
