Good evening and welcome to our live text coverage of tonight's World Cup Group A qualifier between Wales and Croatia at the Liberty Stadium.

Yet another corner and this time there's a chance. Eduardo leaps highest at the back post and sees his header flash a yard off target.

Bellamy is down injured and hobbles to the sidelines.

And another corner to Croatia... it causes some anxiety in there for Wales but eventually Jonathan Williams shows good composure to chest and hook the ball to safety.

Croatia pressing early in the second period. Two corners in quick succession - but they both come to nothing.

It's all gone wrong for Scotland. They are 2-0 down in Serbia now.

Just one defeat in their last 11 internationals for Croatia. It's a big 45 minutes for both sides here.

SUB at the interval: Gordon Schildenfeld on for Badelj for CROATIA.

KICK OFF! Croatia restart the match.

Half-time: Wales 1-0 Croatia. Bale pen. Superb first half from the hosts.

Srna again crosses from the right and Mandzukic sees his shot well saved by Myhill. Back up the other end and Bellamy wins a corner that comes to nothing.

Srna crosses from the right and it causes all sorts of problems in the Wales area, but ultimately they survive and the ball trickles through to Myhill.

Important for Wales to see this through to the break here.

Possession in the last five minutes: Wales 70 per cent - Croatia 30 per cent.

Robson-Kanu booked and now misses Wales' next game v Macedonia in September.

Sublime flick by Bale tees up Bellamy who sees his low shot well saved by Pletikosa.

Bale whips it in under the bar and Pletikosa manages to punch to safety.

Corner to Wales.

A half-time score in Group A: Serbia 0-0 Scotland.

What a chance! Bale powers onto a fabulous pass and is clean through on goal. He sets himself and pulls the trigger.... but it's over the bar. He's human after all.

Impressive stuff from Wales so far tonight. Croatia will no doubt improve after the break but you can't argue with the scoreline as it stands.

A lightning break down the left from Hal Robson-Kanu ends with a cut back for Bale who sees his low shot on the burst well parried by Pletikosa.
