Gareth Bale TURNED HIS BACK on Real Madrid by telling Zidane he won't play – Ale Moreno | ESPN FC

ESPN FC’s Alejandro Moreno, Don Hutchison and Frank Leboeuf react to Gareth Bale’s request not to play for Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League return leg vs. Manchester City. Moreno says Bale needs to put aside his difference with Zinedine Zidane and instead is making matters worse by “turning his back on the club and his teammates.” Hutchison and Leboeuf call out Bale for his lack of professionalism, saying they would never turn down the opportunity to play, especially in the knockout stages of the Champions League.
