Gareth Bale has revealed how he got over defeat to England.

Gareth Bale has revealed how he got over defeat to England....thanks to burger and chips.

Bale opened up on how Chris Coleman's Wales squad decided to pick up the mood in camp after Thursday's late sickener against the Three Lions by going for a team lunch in their base town of Dinard.

And after tucking into a quarter-pounder, Bale says he's now ready to serve up a Welsh win over Russia after declaring himself hungry to show his best form.

Relishing the chance to get stuck into the Russians in Toulouse after Daniel Sturridge's 92nd minuter winner denied Wales a draw in Lens, Bale said: “Obviously we were disappointed after the England game, especially losing it the way we did.

“But we all had a chat about it straight away about not being down about it. We're such a close group, we can have a laugh together and we wanted to keep the atmosphere the same.

“After the game we decided that we'd go out as a group for lunch the next day. We went into the centre of Dinard, all the players and staff, and had a nice meal to get away from the hotel for a bit and have a change of scenery – and the burger and chips definitely helped!

“You need that bit of downtime and things to pick you up. We're eating well at the hotel and have quite a strict menu, but it was a nice change and it lightened everyone's mood.”

Sounds like a good plan to me, anyone who knows any professional footballers or who has had personal contact with any football team would know what a boring life they live whilst on duty, they literally eat, shit and sleep when they are told. Lets hope this does boost morale ready for tomorrows game against Russia!! :thumbup:
