Real Madrid midfielder Xabi Alonso has said that he has not seen anything like Gareth Bale's late goal against Barcelona in the Copa del Rey finals.

The midfielder branded Bale's goal as 'incredible', which helped Real to a 2-1 win over Barcelona in the Copa del Rey finals.

According to the Guardian, Alonso said that it looked as if the ball was going out and Bale was under pressure, but the Welshman ran off the pitch to keep the ball in and it was amazing.

Alonso also said that Real now has the taste of victory following an exciting game, in which both sides played at their best.

 

Meanwhile, Real boss Carlo Ancelotti said that it was Bale's most important goal and the most defining moment of the game.

Bale sprinted for 50-metres with the ball to score a goal against Barcelona with just five minutes remaining in the game, the report added.
