Gareth Bale: "It feels incredible"

Wales attacker Gareth Bale reveals his delight after helping the Dragons record a 3-1 win over Belgium in the quarter-finals of Euro 2016.

Gareth Bale has said that helping Wales book their spot in the semi-finals of Euro 2016 "feels incredible".

The Real Madrid attacker was part of the Dragons side that recorded a 3-1 win over Belgium in Lille to set up a last-four clash with Portugal next Wednesday night.

Bale, who has already scored three times at the European Championships, has insisted that his team "deserve to be in the semi-finals" as he prepares to go head to head with club teammate Cristiano Ronaldo.

"We fought as hard as anyone. We covered every blade of grass. I think we deserve to be in the semi-finals. We believe in ourselves. We know what we're doing," Bale told BBC Sport.

"It feels incredible. We fully believed we could get this far. We said we'd give it a good go. We're enjoying the journey. We'll go into the semi-final with confidence. We can't afford to look past that game.

"We'll do our homework and work on our game plan. It's not long before the next game. I'm sure there'll be a few celebrations but not too much. It means everything. Our fans were 10 times as loud despite there being much more Belgians in the crowd. We'll enjoy the journey together."

Wales have reached the semi-finals of a major competition for the first time in their history.
