Arsenal ace Aaron Ramsey is confident local fans will get behind Team GB at the London Olympics.

Gunners youngster Ramsey has no fears over the home fans embracing the Wales internationals when Team GB meet Uruguay at a sold-out Millennium Stadium on August 1.

Ramsey told the Daily Star: "I hope all our home fans will come together for this occasion. They need to get behind the England lads in Team GB as well because this is a real one-off.

"For us Welsh players it hasn't really been a battle to win over the fans because, hopefully, they understand our point of view about playing in the Olympics.

"It is very important to me and, to be honest, we're old enough and mature enough to make our own decisions.

"We're being offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, one too good to turn down and we all want to be remembered for the part we play. "
