Bale ‘heals’ for Wales

As usual, there is a Gareth Bale at Real Madrid and another when it comes to the Wales team. Last Sunday he was dropped from the Madrid list for the Clásico at the last minute citing a physical problem, but yesterday he was already in Cardiff to join the Welsh concentration to prepare the playoff against Austria for the ticket to the World Cup in Qatar.

Bale fell out of the match against Barça, where he could have been an alternative as a false nine due to the absence of Benzema (he held that position on February 12 in the 0-0 draw at La Cerámica), and he did so officially claiming some discomfort in the back. A problem with his physique that did not prevent him from taking a plane yesterday to his country to join the preparations for the team led by Robert Page. According to the Welsh press, he is expected this Thursday against Austria (8:45 p.m.).

In fact, if he plays a part, he will have acted more this season with Wales (accumulating 232 minutes in international matches) than with Madrid, where he has barely been seen in 270 minutes in what is being a contract year with more pain. what a glory
