Gareth Bale is on a one-man mission to lead Wales to a major tournament.

The Real Madrid star may be somewhat unappreciated at club level in Spain, but his countrymen and women love him - and for good reason. Bale thumped home a stunning late header away to Cyprus in a crucial European Championships qualifier, as the travelling fans roared his name in appreciation. https://twitter.com/ElMadridismo93/status/639536670459740160 It was a goal that epitomised Bale's recent form for his country - powerful, determined and utterly stunning. That's 6 goals in 7 games in the Euro 2016 qualifiers for the Welsh tyro. All this on the day that Wales moved ahead of England in the Fifa rankings.
