Real Madrid’s Gareth Bale said anger over his treatment and media speculation about his future at the Spanish club had not distracted him from giving his best on the pitch. “Whenever I step onto the pitch I give 100% to help the team … I love meeting up with Wales. I haven’t got anything to clear my mind about.”Wales manager Ryan Giggs suggested Bale’s situation at the club had improved. “It would have unsettled him because it was apparently very close for him going,” Giggs said.
