Wales are approaching the biggest match in their footballing history, but it couldn't come at a worse time for Chris Gunter, who is supposed to be best man at his brother's wedding the day after the semi-final with Portugal.
The South Wales Evening Post has reported that Chris' brother Marc gets married on 7th July, in Mexico. Gunter told the newspaper "[The wedding] was booked just after we qualified. He's taken quite a lot of stick and it's caused a couple of problems. He hasn't moved his wedding and I'm supposed to be best man so I'm hoping that I can't make it."
In fairness to Marc, you can't blame him for not placing much faith in Wales reaching the semi-finals of the European Championships, given that it's their first major tournament since 1958, but Friday night's stunning 3-1 victory over Belgium has put Chris Coleman's team on the verge of history, with only Portugal and a misfiring Cristiano Ronaldo standing in their way of the final at the Stade De France, next Sunday.
