Cymru right-back Connor Roberts has said that he listens to Dafydd Iwan's rousing anthem Yma o Hyd before every match.


When asked what was his "pre-match song", the Swansea City and Cymru defender said: "Yma o hyd, I listen to that every game. It just puts a little bit of fire in the belly and makes me want to run a little bit more."


Roberts scored in the 95th minute in Cymru's 2-0 victory against Turkey in Baku.


He was born in Castell-nedd and grew up in the nearby village of Y Creunant.


He joined Swansea City's Youth Academy at the age of nine and has since made over 130 appearances for the team.
