With the game perfectly poised at 0-0 after the first leg of the Euro 2004 play-off in Moscow on saturday, a goal midway through the first half from Vadim Evseev at the Millenium Stadium saw Russia qualify for the finals in Portugal next year with Savage once again picking up his customary yellow card - the Blues midfileder being booked in both legs.
Wales have not qualified for a major tournament final since the World Cup of 1958.
