England earned the right to be a top seed for the Euro 2024 draw | Football Digest<\/h3>\n

Wales’ 1-1 draw with Turkey in their Euro 2024 qualification campaign ended in chaos as a mass brawl ensued when the full-time whistle blew in Cardiff. The Welsh players were incensed that several refereeing decisions appeared to go against them, as Brennan Johnson saw two penalty claims turned down before the visitors were awarded a spot-kick of their own.<\/p>\n

Tens of players and then coaches and security members made up the brawl after the referee blew up to signal full-time, as Wales’ fate in the play-offs was confirmed.<\/p>\n

Manchester United goalkeeper Altay Bayindir was involved in a moment with Burnley’s Connor Roberts as the two teams traded some handbags before the brawl was eventually broken up.<\/p>\n

Wales captain Ben Davies attempted to drag Roberts away from Bayindir before another Turkish player took issue with the Tottenham defender.<\/p>\n

In the first half, Johnson appealed for two penalty decisions that were waved away. The second in particular saw the Spurs forward seemingly pushed over inside the box following a corner, but his appeals were made in vein after Neco Williams had given the hosts with a stunning curling effort from the edge of the area after seven minutes.<\/p>\n

The visitors were given a golden opportunity to equalise, however, after Davies was adjudged to have fouled substitute Kenan Yildiz by pushing him in the back when the teenager chased a cross into the area. Their penalty was duly despatched by Yusuf Yazici.<\/p>\n
