5 best athletes for the week 23 May - 30 May

As part of our ongoing series, we profile five of the best sporting performances from a week that saw the finals for the UEFA Champions League and the Indian Premier League among others:

 

Gareth Bale

Bale won his second Champions League title with Real Madrid

Winger Gareth Bale’s side, Real Madrid, won the Champions League last week as they beat Atletico Madrid, and the Welsh footballer was instrumental in victory for his side.

Bale assisted Sergio Ramos with a flick as Toni Kroos sent a free kick into play, with Ramos scoring Real’s first and only goal in a match that went to penalties.

Madrid would eventually win 5-3 on the back of those penalties, with Bale scoring in the shootout, taking his second Champions League title with the team.
