Gareth Bale: 'Wales fought to the end'

Wales forward Gareth Bale believes that the team fought until the end after playing the second half of their 2-1 win over Cyprus with 10 men.

Gareth Bale has praised Wales's performance in their win over Cyprus in their Euro 2016 qualifier after they played most of the second half with 10 men.

Andy King was sent off shortly after the restart while Chris Coleman's men were leading 2-1, but the hosts held on to maintain their unbeaten start to the qualifying campaign.

The Real Madrid playmaker told Sky Sports News: "It was a great start from us, we came out of the blocks firing just how we wanted to. I think you can see how much the lads wanted it, it's a different feeling in the camp now and the fans were fantastic again throughout.

"Since the sending-off we covered every blade of grass and fought to the end. It's a great place to be at the moment, it's a big game against Belgium but we will go there full of confidence now."

The result leaves Wales at the top of Group B with seven points from their first three matches.
