| BACK TO BEST |
The Welshman has a smile on his face again after a tough few months in which he struggled to deliver his A game and looked sheepish on occasion as a result of being booed by the Bernabéu crowd during several matches.
However, Bale got back on the scoresheet with a crucial brace in the win over Levante and has regained his mojo since then. He failed to register during a bright performance against
Barcelona - he did get the ball in the net, but the effort was ruled out because Cristiano Ronaldo was offside - but scored a terrific double for Wales in Israel to leave his country in pole position to qualify for Euro 2016.
The 25-year-old continued his resurgence on his return to duty for Real Madrid against Granada, looking lively throughout and opening the scoring with a fleet-footed finish after outmuscling a defender and rounding the goalkeeper. The Welshman has now netted 13 times in La Liga this season and with Cristiano Ronaldo also firing on all cylinders again, life suddenly seems a lot brighter for 'Los Blancos' going into the business end of the season.
