Micky van de Ven’s wonder goal in the Champions League has been the talk of the town at Tottenham, and now Gareth Bale has given his take.

The Tottenham Hotspur legend scored some magical goals during his time in North London, but even he would have been proud of the Dutch defender’s powerful run.

Van de Ven could win the Puskas, and if he were to win the award, he would be the third player from Spurs to get it, after Erik Lamela and Son Heung-min.

Now, Bale has been speaking about the 24-year-old’s 68-meter dribble against Copenhagen, and it’s fair to say that he was impressed.

Gareth Bale has compared Micky van de Ven’s recent goal in the Champions League to his first goal at the San Siro in 2010.

Like Van de Ven, the Welsh winger picked up the ball inside his own half, gallivanted past several Inter defenders and fired his effort past Julio Cesar.

The former Tottenham star recalled how Van de Ven also produced a similar moment against Man United last season to assist Brennan Johnson.
