The Welsh fans went absolutely nuts after Gareth Bales's goal

Wales beat Slovakia tonight in their Group B game in the Euro 2016 championship tonight.

However, while the Welsh fans were understandably delighted to get the victory in their opener tonight, it was Gareth Bale's free kick that really lit up the night for them.

Wales were under pressure early on, but the Real Madrid striker announced himself to the tournament in the best possible way.

He stepped up to a 30-yard free-kick and smashed it into the back of the net to send everyone wild.
