Tottenham winger Bale: Champions League left me wanting more

Tottenham winger Gareth Bale admits last season's Champions League run has left him pining for more.

Bale struck a memorable hat-trick in defeat at Inter Milan to announce himself on the world stage.

He recalled to the Spurs website: "At half-time I don't think anybody thought it was going to be one of those nights to remember, but the team dug in. We had 10 men but I think we looked the better team in the second half.

"To score a hat-trick was a great achievement personally but it turned one of those horrendous defeats into one that didn't look so bad in the end.

"I enjoyed playing in the Champions League more than anything. It's one of those competitions where you compete and prove yourself against the best."
