Wilson insists Bale the free-kick expert

Derby County's Harry Wilson has been labelled a free-kick specialist after scoring the winner from 20 yards against Ireland in the Nations League on Tuesday night, not long after his stunner against Manchester United in the Carabao Cup last month. 

Gareth Bale is Wales' usual dead-ball specialist though missed the game due to injury. However, Wilson insisted that once Bale is back, the Real Madrid star will return straight to the top of the pecking order. 

Wilson remarked: "I'll be putting my name forward but I think he is still at the front of the queue - and rightly so.

"When Gareth is here we stand back and watch him take them because he is that good.

"But it is important to have a couple of players good on dead balls. It is good to have that option."
