Chris Coleman admits that his job of picking a 23-man Wales squad for Euro 2016 is now harder after their clash against Northern Ireland.

Wales head coach Chris Coleman has conceded that he has a more difficult task to pick a squad for this summer's European Championships after the 1-1 draw with Northern Ireland tonight.

The Welsh were rescued in the last minute at the Cardiff City Stadium by a converted penalty from second-half substitute Simon Church.

"Our lads showed pride, and without seven or eight who haven't played in the qualifying campaign it was about looking wider than that tonight," Coleman told BBC Sport.

"There are lots of positives, I was delighted for Sam Vokes who did well for us and Simon Church, who made an impact.

"One or two of the players have probably made it more difficult to choose my 23 for the Euros now."

Euro 2016 will be the first major tournament that Wales have competed in since the 1958 World Cup.
