Colwill: Bale an inspiration to me and the next generation
Cardiff City starlet Rubin Colwill has said he and his contemporaries are inspired by iconic forward Gareth Bale and they will try to fill the sizeable shoes he will vacate when he eventually retires.
Bale put in a sensational display for Wales during the 2-1 win over Austria, scoring both goals in impressive fashion, silencing any critics while doing so. And Colwill, who is still just 19, said that performances like that serve as an inspiration for him and fellow youngsters in the Wales camp.
"It's an inspiration for all of us," Colwill said of Bale. "The success he’s had in his career. For him to still be doing that stuff now is incredible.
"It’s a tough job for anyone to fill those boots. We’ll try our best."
