How brave were those two boys, sons of the late Gary Speed?

New Welsh manager Chris Coleman was struggling to hold it together during the press conference after the final whistle as he praised his former colleague's sons.

"Ed is 14 years old," said the new Wales coach. "And he came into the dressing room afterwards. There wasn't a tear in his eye. He was as strong as an ox and spoke to the players. He stood there and said to them":

"My dad always told me that if you do your best, then that's enough. And I think you lot did your best tonight. That's good enough."

"What can you say when a lad who has just lost his dad says that to a bunch of professional footballers? That's bravery, isn't it? His boys were absolutely magnificent."
