Gareth Bale said he's still not 100 percent, but the world's most expensive football player certainly gave Real Madrid fans a glimpse of what to expect when he will be.
Bale scored two goals and assisted on two more in Wednesday's 7-3 win over Sevilla, the first time he's completed a full 90 minutes for Madrid.
“It's been important for my fitness level,” Bale said. “Right now I have to keep getting better and work hard and I'll try to be 100 percent as soon as possible.”
Cristiano Ronaldo kept pace with Atletico forward Diego Costa in the goal-scoring race by taking his league tally to 11, and celebrated with a military salute directed toward Blatter for the FIFA president's remarks that he preferred watching Lionel Messi.
Madrid plays city rival Rayo Vallecano on Saturday.
