Bale, caught eyeing a laptop during Wales-USA

The Liberty Stadium could not have an influx of public for Wales-United States this Thursday but there was news in the stands. It was the 22nd minute of the game between the British and the Americans when the cameras settled on the stands looking for the local idol: Gareth Bale. The one from Cardiff was left out of the call for the game and enjoyed in his seat the game of his teammates and something else. The cameras caught him with a laptop resting on his legs in which he watched other content, dividing the attention between what his colleagues were doing on the grass and what was happening on his computer screen. Given the time it was and his love of golf, the English press and several fans on social networks speculated that the Welshman was following the Augusta Masters, one of the 'majors' who lived his first day on Thursday.

From the islands no one has been able to confirm that he saw or did not see Gareth Bale on his MacBook, but the replacement for Ryan Giggs, removed from the activity while he solves his legal problems after the accusation of gender violence against his partner Kate Greville, Rob Page did not seem to care too much as he explained at a press conference.

“I don't know what the players do when they are left out of the team,” he confessed before clarifying that for him “there was no problem” whatever Bale did during the match. “Bale is here and has been brilliant during the week. He was in the locker room before the game making sure that everyone came out focused,” explained the interim, who does not observe any lack of commitment in the now Tottenham soccer player.

As Page explained, Bale rested this match to be able to play next Sunday against Ireland and assured that he is in a great state of form. “It comes in more shape than ever. He has been working week if and week as well and we are going to be able to benefit from it, “he said.
