Chris Coleman Surprised with yet Another Disappointing Draw for Wales

After managing a stunning performance at the Euro 2016, Chris Coleman and his team have received praise from various quarters.

Wales started the campaign with a comfortable 4-0 win over Andorra, but those days seem a long way back. Prior to the game, Coleman admitted that his team were depleted due to injuries but a draw against minnows Georgia is simply acceptable for a team with qualification – and even beyond – aspirations.
