Gareth Bale still settles accounts with Spain

Wales 2 – 1 Austria What follows after this ad “Wales, golf, Madrid. In this order”. Gareth Bale keeps his word. Author of a double yesterday against Austria (2-1 victory), he allows his country to continue to believe in a qualification for the World Cup. It would be the first since 1958. We then understand a little better the enthusiasm that accompanies the selection and its hero. Adored in Wales, Bale is also mocked in Spain where his history with Real Madrid has taken a disastrous turn for far too long now. Already yesterday, he released his 4 truths about his situation with the Spanish club.

In three months, he will be gone and it will be better for everyone. After qualifying for the play-off final last night, he again lashed out at the Spanish press, which he called ‘disgusting’. Bale: “I don’t need to send a message” Marca notably titled a mocking “It doesn’t hurt anymore”, while the Welshman left for selection after being injured with Real. A journalist from the Iberian daily even called the player a parasite. An insult that Bale did not digest and he made it clear during his post-match interview. “I don’t need to send a message, honestly. It’s a waste of time.

He probably doesn’t have much to do since anyway, the national team has always had its priority. “We knew what an important game it was that we had to play. We dug deep and, look at our experience in big games. It’s a perfect scenario, “he assured, he who came out to the ovation of the public. It now remains to qualify his country for the World Cup. Next step, Scotland or Ukraine, opponents up to Gareth Bale.
