Euro 2016 semi-final heartache means Joe Ledley can marry his fiancee on weekend of final
JOE LEDLEY missed out on one perfect match this weekend — but he has another one to look forward to tomorrow.
The Wales midfielder saw the dream of a Euro 2016 final at the Stade de France snatched away by Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal.
But semi-final heartache means he will at least get to marry fiancee Ruby May in Ibiza.
Last night he boarded a flight from Brittany to the sunshine island — and he misses tonight’s homecoming in Cardiff.
Chris Coleman’s squad have an open top bus parade through their capital before going to the Cardiff City Stadium for a huge celebration.
