GARETH BALE wants Wales to stage a memorable history lesson for the nation's schoolkids watching at home.
The Welsh government have given permission for schools to decide if they want to show today's 10am kick-off with Iran to pupils.
Wales are aiming for their first-ever win at a World Cup.
They drew two and lost one in their only previous appearance in 1958 and earned a share of the spoils against USA in their opener in Qatar.
Now, Wales skipper Bale hopes a generation of youngsters will be able to tune in to savour a historic win with their classmates.
Victory would set up a blockbuster final Group B game between Wales and England.
