Wales off mark as Bale’s belter sinks Scots

Chris Coleman earned his first win as Wales manager as a double from Gareth Bale secured all three points in a 2-1 win over Scotland.

The Scots — also searching for their first victory in Group A — had taken the lead at the Millennium Stadium through James Morrison in the first half.

But Tottenham star Bale had the final say when he won and converted a second-half penalty, before grabbing a stunning long-range winner with a minute to go.
