Wales gave an exciting glimpse of what the future may hold under new head coach Craig Bellamy even as they were held to a goalless draw at home by 10-man Turkey in the Nations League.


Bellamy’s expansive, high-octane new style was evident from the first whistle as his fluid Wales side relentlessly pressed their opponents and attacked with verve and invention.


With Aaron Ramsey and Joe Rodon missing two glorious chances and Sorba Thomas having a first-half goal disallowed, the home fans were clearly encouraged by what they saw.


Wales stayed on the front foot after the break as Harry Wilson curled a fine long-range effort narrowly wide before Turkey striker Baris Alper Yilmaz was sent off for a second booking, but the home side could not convert their pressure into goals.


Bellamy had promised a radically different playing style and a clear identity, and his team delivered that in abundance, even if they could not start his reign with victory.


There will be bumps in the road with such a high-risk, high-reward approach – particularly with how Wales now look to build from the back – but it promises to be a thrilling ride.


Next up in Bellamy’s brave new world is a trip to Montenegro for Wales’ second Group B4 fixture on Monday.
