Joe Ledley is ready to play for Wales in its opening Euro 2016 match against Slovakia on Saturday, capping a remarkable recovery after the midfielder broke his leg just over a month ago. Wales coach Chris Coleman paid tribute on Friday to Ledley's strength of character to come back from the injury he picked up while playing for Crystal Palace against Stoke on May 7. ''To get to where he is, he's done an unbelievable job, fantastic,'' Coleman told a news conference ahead of the Group B match in Bordeaux.
