Santiago Solari lauded Gareth Bale's performance after the Wales international scored a hat-trick to send Real Madrid through to the Club World Cup final.
Bale turned on the style against AFC Champions League winners Kashima Antlers on Wednesday, with his goals securing a 3-1 victory for Madrid to set up a clash with Al Ain.
And Solari praised Bale - who found the net twice in the Spanish side's Champions League final win over Liverpool back in May - for consistently delivering in the big moments.
"I'm happy for the three goals scored by Bale and for the solidity and consistency of the team," Solari told a news conference.
