Gareth Bale is of the opinion that his national team can win against Belgium, and qualify for the World Cup, for the first time since 1958. Belgium is at the top of Group E, 7 points ahead of third-placed Wales, but has developed 2 more matches.
A victory against Estonia would catapult Bale's team into second place in the group, leaving the Czech Republic behind. Despite this, the player i Real Madrid is not happy with a place in the playoffs. He said:
"We are fully focused on winning the group. If we win every challenge we can qualify, it is all in our hands, but we have a long way to go. We have to take the matches as they come. We can not think where we will be after 2 months. "We have to focus on the next match, which is the one with Estonia, and hope that we will get 3 points."
The Wales captain added:
"I know it is a cliché and everyone says so, but we have to focus on the next match. "Against Belarus we all expected to win, but it was one of our toughest games."
Bale gave his national team victory in the extra minutes against Belarus, completing a treble, and a spectacular performance on a personal level. The Real Madrid superstar is not only the locomotive of Wales, but also the inspiration for many young players who dream of becoming part of the national team. It seems that the 32-year-old knows well his role and responsibility in representation:
"I think there are still many things we can achieve, otherwise I would not play. We believe that on our good day we can beat any team, even when we do not give our best. We have the right mentality to qualify for the World Cup "
