Bale reminds Mourinho what he can offer
For a brief few seconds, it looked like Gareth Bale was back to his best and about to score a goal of the season contender at the Etihad Stadium.
The forward saw his shot from distance blocked, the ball fell nicely for him a second time and instead of shooting again he first jinked past three Manchester City players on the edge of the box before getting a shot on goal.
