Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane heaped praise on Gareth Bale after he inspired the club's 3-2 comeback victory over Rayo Vallecano.
Zinedine Zidane hailed Gareth Bale's match-winning performance in Real Madrid's 3-2 victory at Rayo Vallecano.
Rayo led 2-0 after 14 minutes at Vallecas thanks to goals from Adrian Embarba and Miku but Bale, making his return from a back problem, halved the deficit 10 minutes before halftime with a header.
Karim Benzema then came off with an apparent knee injury, but Madrid – missing Cristiano Ronaldo because of a thigh issue – was still able to complete the comeback.
