Bale's anger: He pushed away Lucas, evaded teammates and was comforted by Modric
In no mood to celebrate his goal
Posted Monday, February 25, 2019 by Marca.com
Rather than celebrating his goal that put Real Madrid 2-1 up, Gareth Bale showed a sense of anger and shrugged off Lucas Vazquez, ran away from the rest of his teammates and eventually accepted congratulations from Luka Modric.
The closest thing to celebrating he showed was a number of hand slaps with teammates as he ran back to the centre circle for the game to restart.
Bale ran back to the halfway line as though it was not something worth celebrating, or like he had just reduced a deficit and was keen to get the game restarted as soon as possible.
It was a response of frustration due to his new role in the squad and due to the fact that he wasn't even the first change that Santiago Solari made.
The goal was Bale's 13th of the season, seven of which have come in LaLiga Santander.
