Wales boss Gary Speed praises his side's attacking prowess after their 4-1 friendly win against Norway in Cardiff.

Wales manager Gary Speed has hailed his side's attacking options after their 4-1 win against Norway in Cardiff.

Goals from Gareth Bale, Craig Bellamy and a quickfire brace from Sam Vokes secured Wales's third consecutive win.

"It was strange really," said Speed. "First 20 minutes I thought we were unbelievable and scored two great goals and then I thought we took our foot off the pedal a bit, we lost a bit of discipline.

"Norway are a good team. I thought they were the better team for the first 20 minutes in the second half and then in the last 10 minutes we scored two fantastic goals, and it just goes to show that if we keep it solid at the back we've got so much going forward we can beat teams like that."

Wales's next international fixture has not yet been scheduled.
