Wales fans earn Uefa fair play behaviour award
Wales fans support their men's team
Wales football fans are known as the Red Wall

Fans of Wales' men's, women's and leading domestic club teams have earned the top Uefa prize for supporter behaviour.

The nation's fans won the behaviour of spectators title for 2025-26 in the Uefa fair play rankings.

Uefa has rewarded the Football Association of Wales (FAW) 50,000 euros (£42,000) "to invest back into the game in Wales".

Wales men's captain Ben Davies said: "As players, the travel, commitment, and support of the Red Wall does not go unnoticed. We know you are always with us in your numbers both home and away, and the award from Uefa is truly deserved.

"We are so proud of how you conduct yourselves amazingly at away matches, leaving a positive mark wherever you go.

"We look forward to your continued support as we head towards reaching the home Euros in 2028. Llongyfarchiadau i chi gyd (congratulations to all of you)."

Wales women's captain Angharad James said: "Whether we are home or away, we know the Red Wall will be behind us every step of the way.

"Seeing that support grow over the years has been incredibly powerful and has allowed the team to grow from strength to strength. We appreciate everything you do, and you thoroughly deserve the recognition. Diolch am eich cefnogaeth (thanks for your support)."

FAW chief executive Noel Mooney said: "We probably always knew that the Red Wall is the very best in Europe – and now Uefa has confirmed that our supporters really are the best of the best across European International football.

"As we look forward to more special nights ahead, including the sold-out Portugal game here in Cardiff (in the Nations League on 17 November), we know that our fans will come out in huge numbers to support the Cymru national teams and domestic clubs to success."
