Bale one goal away from glory
The Cardiff Express needs one goal to beat the current British top scorer of all time in Spain, he's tied on 42 goals with...
Bale will become the top British scorer of all time by netting against Las Palmas today; he's scored 42 goals, as has a certain Gary Lineker. The Welsh wizard has scored 42 times in 74 games, while it took Gary Lineker 103 matches to reach that number.
Bale can leave Lineker in the dust today with a scoring performance on the Canary Island, and it would be hard to bet against him, Bale is on fire: 12 goals in his last 9 games.
Bale has scored in his last 4 La Liga matches, he has 14 league goals this season. His effectiveness in Spain has not translated to European competition however, where he hasn't scored in his 164 minutes played.
