VIDEO: Gareth Bale sprints 60m in 6 seconds, leaving Cristiano Ronaldo lagging behind

Pull your finger out Cristiano

Gareth Bale sets off like he owes Pepe money.

The Real Madrid winger ran over half the length of the pitch in just six seconds during his side’s 4-1 victory over Almeria last night.

And even Cristiano Ronaldo, who you’d have been led to believe would have the beating of anyone in a sprint, struggled to keep up with the Welshman and a simple shot from a squared ball went begging.

The run becomes even more impressive when you realise that the former Spurs man had the little matter of the football to deal with while ol’ slowcoach Ronaldo just had open space to run into.
