Portugal Won the Match 2-0
The Wales fans have been magnificent at Euro 2016, entering into the spirit of a patchy tournament with the same passion and positive thinking that has epitomised Coleman's squad.
And as defeat became increasingly inevitable on a steamy night in Lyon, they showed their appreciation for what they have seen in these recent weeks with rousing songs and a splash of colour.
Wales may have lost here but the manner in which they approached Euro 2016 was exemplary and has provided memories that will last a lifetime, especially those second-half goals from Hal Robson-Kanu and Sam Vokes that sank Belgium.
They took the tournament head-on, perhaps only wavering when gripped by the occasion against England in Lens, even then only losing to Daniel Sturridge's injury-time winner.
The confidence Wales can take away from France will provide the ideal platform for their World Cup qualifying campaign to reach Russia in two years' time, which starts against Moldova in Cardiff in September.
