Bale impresses in Los Angeles: "He's spectacular"

Philidelphia Union beat New York City 3-1 and were crowned champions of the Eastern Conference, and will go head to head with Los Angeles, the winner of the West, for the MLS Cup. The two sides will fight it out for their first league championship title.

One of the players who will be under the spotlight for that game will be Gareth Bale. The Wales international is a player that makes the difference and his teammates know it. Ilie Sanchez, one of the ex-Madrid player's teammates at LAFC, was full of praise in an interview with 'El Larguero'.

"Gareth is spectacular. His level is different to the rest, I'm sure that it'll come in useful for us", he said.

What is more, the Catalan midfielder said that Carlos Vela is the "leader" and that "he's the best player in the league". "When the stands are filled with Latin Americans it's obvious. There's more of a football atmosphere", he stated.
