Gareth Bale has been in fine touch

Ever since returning from injury, Real Madrid's resident speedster, Gareth Bale, has been relatively unstoppable. Often termed the weak link in Madrid's star-studded side due to injuries, the Welshman has made the most of his opportunities in recent times, to emphatically underline his importance to the side.

The 28-year-old was extremely impressive against Alaves as well, as he scored a goal, won a penalty and hit the post. An eventful game saw him make a total of 50 passes, of which 40 were accurate. He also took a total of 3 shots, of which one tragically hit the post.

More notably, Bale was at his athletic best as he made a stunning total of 8 successful dribbles, to add to a total of 85 touches throughout the game. All of a sudden, he now has 7 La Liga goals, and if he can keep his fitness in check, he's promising to end the season with a flourish.
