Goals from Aaron Ramsey and Connor Roberts gave Wales a 2-0 win over Turkey in Baku to put them on the verge of a Euro 2020 last-16 spot.
Ramsey, who had already missed two excellent chances to score, chested down and slotted home Bale’s sumptuous 20-yard diagonal ball to set Wales on the way to their first win of the tournament three minutes before half-time.
Bale would later win a penalty for a foul by Zeki Celik but would blaze the spot-kick over the bar, leaving Wales a nervous ending to the game until Roberts turned home Bale’s run from a short corner in the final seconds of second-half injury time to leave Wales’ fans in tears and their country on the brink of reaching the knock-out stages.
By adding a victory to their point earned against Switzerland on Saturday, Robert Page’s side are likely to reach the next round regardless of what happens against Italy in their final group game on Sunday, while even a win against Switzerland will probably not suffice for pointless Turkey.
