The Welsh national side may have been eliminated at the semi final stage by Portugal but their fans turned out in their numbers to welcome their heroes after an impressive showing at EURO 2016. More than 100000 supporters lined the streets of the capital, Cardiff to cheer the team as it made its way to the Cardiff City stadium in an open-top bus parade. Fans were packed into the stadium for the national welcome party. Wales were the surprise performers of Euro 2016 and made history by reaching a semi-final of a major tournament for the first time ever. More photos below;

Mild drama ensued at the Nnamdi Azikiwe stadium, Enugu last night during a football match between Rangers of Enugu and Abia Warriors of Umuahia.
A group of young Igbo youths were moving round with Ogene music when one of them was seen displaying Biafran flag.
His action provoked a police officer within the stadium and he moved towards the young man holding the flag and attempted to snatch it from him.
However, he got more than he bargained for as everyone around there descended on him and nearly lynched the officer.
A surge of youths advanced towards the officer with shouts of Wetin, Wetin, Wetin, and the police officer quickly took to his heels.
