Gareth Bale is again facing the wrath of the Spanish media as Real Madrid are told to " fire " the Wales superstar.
The forward scored both goals for his country, including a spectacular free-kick, as they beat Austria 2-1 in a World Cup qualifier. Bale has been used sparingly at best by Carlo Ancelotti at the Bernabeu with his contract due to expire in a matter of months. However for Wales he remains a leading light.
Bale's quality has never been in doubt and was evident early in his Madrid career following his then world-record move from Tottenham. However, he has faced jeers from Los Blancos' fans and been regularly criticised by the country's media. That has again been the theme on Friday morning as Bale is accused of "lacking respect" for the LaLiga leaders.
