A brace from Gareth Bale gave Wales a 2-1 win over Andorra in their Euro qualifier that probably shouldn't have been as close as it was. Andorra opened the scoring from the penalty spot in just the sixth minute, but Bale headed in an equalizer in the 22nd minute. With the minnows looking like they might take a rare point, Bale struck again in the 81st minute with a glorious free kick that prompted a small pitch invasion from a group of Welsh supporters.

And in this joyous moment, Bale showed the influence that Real Madrid teammate Cristiano Ronaldo has had on him by jacking one of his goal celebrations.

The jokes about Bale mimicking Ronaldo have been around since he joined Real Madrid last year, but this proves that it's not just a joke. Gareth Bale dreams of wearing Ronaldo's skin as his own.
