Casemiro urges Real Madrid fans to stop booing Gareth Bale

Casemiro of Real Madrid is not happy with the club’s fans for booing Gareth Bale.

Casemiro has encouraged Real Madrid fans to stop booing Gareth Bale, citing the Welshman’s importance to the club’s history to defend him.

On Saturday, Bale came on as a substitute against Getafe and was booed as he walked onto the Bernabeu ground. It was his seventh appearance in the league for Los Blancos this season, and his first at the stadium since February 2020.

ESPN reported, “When you whistle one player, you whistle all of us,” Casemiro stated before Real’s second leg against Chelsea in the Champions League quarter-finals on Tuesday. Everyone has an opinion in football, but when a player on my team is whistled, I don’t agree. We’re all on the same team and must support him.”

Bale smiled as he faced the jeers of Real’s supporters, leading his team to a win that moved them closer to winning La Liga.

Manager Carlo Ancelotti claimed the fans’ boos were “understandable” after the game, but commended Bale for his professionalism.
He expressed himself as follows: “Our fans, I believe, are really valuable. They were in the round of 16 against PSG, and now we have them, that push, on Tuesday.” “Naturally, Bale has gotten a lot of flak, but he’s doing well now. He’s a serious professional.”

In the UCL tie, Real leads Chelsea 3-1, with star striker Karim Benzema and Vinicius Junior likely to lead the line. Bale is not likely to feature.
