Bale returns to Wales team

Real Madrid forward Gareth Bale was recalled by Wales on Friday for their forthcoming 2018 World Cup qualifying matches against Austria and Moldova.

"It's nice to have Gareth back and also Neil Taylor for the Moldova game," Wales manager Chris Coleman told a press conference in Hensol, south Wales.

"Gareth is a natural athlete, but at this stage of the season some players take a bit longer to find their best.

"Is he 100 percent where he could be? We'll see where he is when we get him."
