Israel coach Avi Guttman has claimed that his team will try to stop Gareth Bale having space when they take on Wales in Saturday's Euro 2016 qualifier.

Guttman also joked that he tried to get some tips from Bale's Real Madrid teammate Cristiano Ronaldo on how to keep the Welshman quiet.

"We contacted Cristiano [to ask] exactly how to do it, how to stop Bale, but he didn't answer the call and it is not about one man," Guttman said in a press conference.

"We're going to play the game as one unit not to give him space. This is our plan."

Israel currently top Group B, with a one-point lead over Wales.
