Gareth Bale: 'Wales loss the best defeat of my life'

Gareth Bale has called Wales's 2-0 defeat to Bosnia-Herzegovina "the best defeat of his life".

Despite the result, qualification for Euro 2016 was confirmed for Wales after Cyprus defeated Israel 2-1.

"The best defeat of my life. It was a difficult game but we have done it and everyone is very happy," Bale told Sky Sports News.

"This is right up there in my career. It was a dream from when I was a small child to play in a major tournament. It doesn't stop here, we have business to do in France.

"We can breathe a sigh of relief and enjoy the occasion. We are like brothers on the pitch. If we lose the ball we fight for it back. We can now test ourselves against the best."

Aaron Ramsey has said that his 'dreams have come true' while captain Ashley Williams believes leading Wales to Euro 2016 is the "proudest moment" of his career.
