Gareth Bale says he doesn’t listen to Cristiano Ronaldo’s advice on free-kicks, and we gotta say that we fully support this decision.
Bale has scored two free-kicks at Euro 2016 so far, and when asked if his success could be due to advice Ronaldo gave him, Bale had this to say: "No, not really. I do it my way. I like my own style.”
"We obviously practice together in training but on different sides. It depends where I am on the pitch and what side.”
"I hit it slightly different depending where the ball is and how close you are.”
"You always stand over them and think 'please just go in,' but it's not always the case.”
"So it's nice to see the hard work pay off and see two go in so far."
After making epic free-kick goals one of his trademarks, Ronaldo’s production in that realm has dropped significantly, to the point where people have begin to openly wonder why he is allowed to take so many of Real Madrid’s free-kicks.
Bale, on the other hand, has hit a much higher number of his free-kicks than Ronaldo.
You keep on doin’ you, Bale.
