Harry Wilson becomes Wales's youngest ever player

Wilson makes Wales history

Liverpool academy midfielder Harry Wilson has become the youngest player ever to feature for Wales in international football.

Wilson created the record when he came on as a substitute in the 87th minute in the Dragons' 1-1 draw with Belgium in a World Cup qualifier at the King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels.

Wilson is only 16 years and 207 days old, and his debut for Wales means that he betters Gareth Bale's record by 108 days.

Wales finished their World Cup qualifying campaign fifth in Group A with 10 points from as many matches.
