As we gear up for the huge Euro 2016 Group B encounter between England and Wales this afternoon ( 2pm Nigeria time) we bring you this infographic which compares two of the key players from today’s game; Dele Alli and Gareth Bale.
Alli has just come off the back of his breakthrough season having joined Tottenham Hotspur last summer and the 20-year-old has been nothing short of a revelation, scoring 10 Premier League goals to help Spurs push for the title.
The former MK Dons midfielder was voted in the PFA Team of the Season as well as being named as the PFA Young Player of the Season, and understandably his superb form has seen him become a key part of Roy Hodgson’s side at Euro 2016.
The stand-out threat facing England today is undoubtedly Gareth Bale. The England players will knows the 26-year-old well as he made his name at Tottenham before earning a world record move to Real Madrid in 2013.
The Welsh super-star has continued to forge a reputation as one of the best attackers in world football during his time at Madrid and he recently helped the La Liga giants win the Champions League for the second time in three seasons.
Bale has scored 20 goals in his 56 caps for his country so far and was on target during Wales’ 2-1 win over Slovakia on Saturday so Hodgson will know his players will need to keep a close eye on him today if they want to get the win they need to qualify for the knockout stages.
