The former Tottenham man shows he is more than an able deputy for the injured Ronaldo tonight.
While he ran the show at White Hart Lane, Gareth Bale has found that he is just big fish at Madrid, which means his opportunities to display his skills from set-pieces have been limited because of a certain Portuguese star.
Tonight against Galatasaray he has shown that when called upon, he has no problems in stepping up to the mark and scored a peach in the first half to give the home side the lead against the Turkish visitors.
It hasn’t been the best half the home supporters have ever witnessed, Sergio Ramos was dismissed for the 59th time in his career (don’t quote us on that), while Umut Bulut equalised just a minute after the stunning set-piece, but Bale’s free-kick was the highlight of the opening half, even if the goalkeeping was pretty diabolical.
