The Welshman seems to be the man of the important matches, from the goal in the King’s Cup against Barcelona and the Champions League finals where he was immortalized with the Chilean against Liverpool. Gareth always appears when the stage is the biggest, while in the games that have to be played to get to those scenarios he usually disappears or is injured. Welsh is a bet.

Defeated the River Plate, the Kashima seemed an anticipated final and Bale was lethal, but we must not forget Benzema, who was the one who started the game of Madrid at the beginning. He was hooked Bale, then Modric and then Marcelo to put Madrid in operation. The white gear already in use only needed the punch of a striker and Bale finally emerged, who is not Cristiano, who does not do it every day, but only when there is a Cup nearby.

The balance was maintained until Bale and Marcelo constructed a wall of very high precision resolved by the Welshman cross-throw. It would not take long to break the game. Two successive Nippon horrors on defense were used by Bale for the 0-2. Technically it was a gift from Kashima, but to get that goal he had to give a spectacular race. Instantly, the third came: Marcelo’s pass and Bale’s to the squad.

That goal had a different effect. It was a psychological blow. Bale smiled and the old happiness in the team was unleashed. Bale needed the hat trick and the team needed to know that it still had Bale. The Madrid regained the joy, its best pace and also to Casemiro that together with Llorente can be a good bet for the future. Double-pivot.

The match would end 3-1 with a new face for Real Madrid, even Asensio’s injury is good because the Mallorcan package is playing to nothing. The Whites will dispute the final on Saturday against the local Al Ain.
