Gareth Bale just danced with a 'Wales. Golf. Madrid.' flag and fans are loving it

The celebrations have been in full swing at Cardiff City Stadium following Wales' stunning win over Hungary.

A brace from Aaron Ramsey saw Ryan Giggs' men claim a 2-0 win , a result that ensured they will be playing at Euro 2020.

Players and fans were united in the Welsh capital as they toasted what was a sweet victory.

The squad and coaching staff posed for pictures and danced on the turf as the reality of what they had achieved started to sink in.

And Gareth Bale delighted the Red Wall even further during the celebrations.

As the players and coaching staff danced together in front of multiple TV cameras, the now infamous "Wales. Golf. Madrid. In that order." flag managed to find its way on to the pitch.

And Bale - along with his team mates - could be seen dancing in unison with the flag, with the Real Madrid star among those laughing as they enjoyed the moment.

It came after former Real Madrid player Predrag Mijatovic stuck the boot into Bale, criticising the Cardiff-born star's love of golf.

In a column for Spanish media outlet AS, he wrote: "The first thing he thinks about is Wales, then golf and after that, Real Madrid."

Fans used the lyrics in the more traditional Viva Gareth Bale chant during the 2-0 win over Azerbaijan on Saturday, while it was also belted out on numerous occasions during the memorable triumph over Hungary.

Wales now await the outcome of the Euro 2020 draw which takes place later this month.
