Marca: Gareth Bale will not be punished for crude Atletico gesture

The Welshman can play in the Clasicos and will not be hit with a ban

Gareth Bale will not be punished for his ‘up yours’ gesture to Atletico Madrid fans.

The Welsh winger produced the uncouth action during the Madrid derby which Real won 3-1 at the Wanda Metropolitano.

The forward hasn’t’ even got a one game ban, as Marca say in their Wednesday edition from sources close to the case.

La Liga denounced Bale to the RFEF but they have not punished him.

That means he will be able to play in the two Clasicos, tonight and on Saturday.

Good news for Santiago Solari, although the coach has a decision to make after Bale’s recent bad attitude - angrily brushing off team-mate Lucas Vazquez in the Levante game after scoring.
