JAKARTA - Real Madrid finally gave Gareth Bale the opportunity to play in the first leg of the 2021/2022 Champions League quarter-final against Chelsea, Thursday, April 7 in the morning of Indonesian Western Time (WIB). In a match that ended 3-1 for Real Madrid's victory, the Welshman did play nine minutes in that match.
Before, Real Madrid visited Stamford Bridge Stadium, many assumptions said Carlo Ancelotti would field Gareth Bale as a starter. But in fact, Bale's name is actually on the list of reserve players.
Even so, Ancelotti was right to give Bale the opportunity to appear in that match. He entered in the 86th to replace Karim Benzema who successfully scored a hat-trick in this match.
Although he only got the opportunity to appear for nine minutes, but that moment also fulfilled Bale's record, which ended up appearing six times for the team this season.
The opportunity given by Don Carlo to Bale seems to be the answer to the questions of the Los Merengues fans lately. The reason is, Bale appeared extraordinary with the Wales national team, while at the club he was only a bench warmer.
