One of the matches the friends were particularly excited for was the Poland-France game at Signal Iduna Park in Dortmund.

This fixture would have featured Wales, had they qualified.

At that game, they did meet some unexpected Wales supporters.

“We got to the ground and as we came up their were seven or eight people wearing Wales shirts, but they were all Germans,” said Mr Jones, from Bridgend.

“They had made their own shirts because they were expecting Wales to be at the fame and wanted to support us.

“They couldn’t believe that we were actually Welsh, they kept coming over to have a chat and of course asked us for approval on their shirts as well,” he added.

“With Wales, there’s something about being a small nation and that identity being a really important part of who you are, so it was a lovely moment to see that,” Mr Hill said.
