A few days ago, Gareth Bale, the captain of the Wales team, left Real Madrid and started a new chapter in his career in the United States. He did not have to wait long for goals in that new chapter. This winger from Los Angeles found the goal after playing the second match in Major League Soccer.
Los Angeles beat Sporting Kansas City 2-0 on Saturday (July 24). Bale came on in the second half and scored a goal after 7 minutes. The 33-year-old Wales forward made his Major League Soccer debut last week. The former Real Madrid player was very happy to score his first goal in the tournament.
After the match, Bale expressed his feelings of scoring his first goal of the tournament. The former Real Madrid star said, ‘The most important thing for me is that we won the match. It’s great to go on the field and score goals and help the team get the three points. From a personal point of view it is great to get the first goal. But getting three points is more important.’
Bale joined Los Angeles after spending 9 years at Real Madrid. In 2013, Real drew him to the team for a then record transfer fee. Bell did not have a good time there for the last few years. But he will be part of the history of the Spanish club. Bale won five Champions Leagues and three La Liga titles with the club.
