Euro 2020: Welsh Fans Living In Amsterdam Ready To Holler For The Whole of Wales!
Wales supporters working and living in Holland will be among the few able to attend the game against Denmark.

The Netherlands are currently barring non-essential visitors from the UK.
Dai from Merthyr is among the lucky ones who will be at the Johan Cruyff Arena. He is working in Amsterdam and will get to see Robert Page's side in action in the last-16 clash.
He told us: "I managed to bump into two Welsh fans who actually live in Amsterdam. They are really excited about the game. It's not the usual festival atmosphere you'd normally get. The Dutch have really got into it. There's a really good atmosphere in the city."
'Huge honour to watch Wales play'
"We have to be as loud as possible. You cannot underestimate how much of an honour it is to be here and cheer on the boys. I know so many people who have travelled thousands and thousands of miles over the years and spent so much money to be at games and would give absolutely everything to be here.
"I just wish I could be joined by all my friends and family who would love to be here, but unfortunately they can't, so I will make sure I cheer for all those guys as well."
What would happen if Bale scores?
"I don't know how much more elevated Gareth Bale could get in the eyes of the Welsh football fan - but he is due a goal. If he can score and put us through to the quarter-finals of a major tournament once again. I do not know how many statues, or how big the statues would be of Gareth Bale - but he would deserve one."
What's the scoreline?
"It is on a knife-edge. I am extremely nervous about this game because I think that given that Denmark are riding on a wave of emotion at the moment - it's going to be very, very difficult. We've got some very, very good players who could turn the game. I think it's going to be very tight. I think it's going to be a narrow Wales win - 2-1 after extra time."

Former Wales player Mark Hughes thinks it's a "loss for the tournament" that Welsh fans won't be in Amsterdam.
Hughes says the players will have to cope with the majority of the crowd cheering on Denmark.
The Wales team are going to miss the red wall and have thanked supporters for their 'incredible support.' The FAW has released a video on Twitter urging fans wherever they are watching the game - to do it safely.
