A Welshman has replaced the nation’s symbol on the A55 for a Swedish flag ahead of their quarter final game against England on Saturday.
Elis Anwyl took down the Welsh flag and replaced it with the blue and yellow banner earlier today to show his support for the Scandinavian team.
It is the fourth flag the 22-year-old from Bangor has put up on the A55 since the World Cup started last month - and there’s been a theme, to say the least.
“First I put up the Panama flag, then that came down and I put the Belgium flag up before putting the Columbian flag,” Elis said. “The Swedish one is up now.
“I just did it for a laugh really.
“I thought, I may as well because Wales aren’t in the World Cup this year.”
Elis, who is “supporting anybody but England” said he will continue to put the team’s opposing flag up until the end of the competition, despite it costing him a fortune.
“It’s had some positive and some negative reaction really,” he added.
“All my mates thinks it’s funny, but I have had a few people messaging me about it - someone even called me scum.”
