Wales frontman Gareth Bale has wished Republic of Ireland full-back Seamus Coleman a "speedy recovery" following the player's horror injury in their World Cup qualifying clash.
The Dragons were reduced to 10 men during the second half in Dublin after Neil Taylor produced a poor challenge on Coleman, who required gas on the pitch before being stretchered off in the 0-0 draw at the Aviva Stadium.
"We knew they would make it difficult for us and we controlled the game in the second half until the red card," said Bale after the game, according to BBC Sport.
"Given that we played for 20 minutes with 10 men we'll take 0-0. I didn't think mine was a yellow card to be honest, but the referee gave it. What can I do?
"We never wish an injury on anyone, I don't know how bad it is but we all wish [Coleman] a speedy recovery."
Wales next find themselves back in qualifying action when they face Serbia in June.
