Johnson again, very nice header to bring Wales level to 3-3 vs Belgium. Good movement.
I found that strange too. Kudus was very good so I think he will be the starter on the RW, but to not even give Johnson at least 30 minutes was a travesty. We just stopped playing football after some of the subs we made.Must be gutted to not even get a minute in the Super Cup his goal qualified us for, considering how far away from match sharpness Solanke was and that Tel got the nod on his “wrong” side.

I think there's a danger of reading too much into this. This was an isolated game, quite unique in terms of opposition and we were throwing more and more long balls forward as the game went on.
It made sense to have Tel up there rather than Johnson (or Odobert) as Tel with his physical attributes has a better chance of doing something with the he ball than either of those two....
