# Tottenham Hotspur: Fans drool over Gareth Bale’s iconic goal

**Loads of Tottenham fans have been drooling over an iconic goal from Gareth Bale, as Tuesday marked seven years since his final strike in the Premier League at White Hart Lane.**

Bale has scored plenty of incredible screamers throughout his career so far, including an [acrobatic finish](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8258729/Gareth-Bale-recreates-acrobatic-goal-Real-Madrids-Champions-League-final-win-Liverpool.html) in the Champions League final, and it is fair to say this stunning goal is certainly no exception to the rule.

Fan accounts [@LastWordOnSpurs](https://twitter.com/LastWordOnSpurs/status/1262661949105549313) and [@thespursweb](https://twitter.com/thespursweb/status/1262675408786464768) shared footage of the Welshman’s long-range effort against Sunderland in [2013](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2013/may/19/tottenham-sunderland-premier-league-match-report), a match-winning strike that put the game beyond the Black Cats and propelled Spurs to 72 points, which was a record for the club. Taking a pass in the final minute of the game, he cut inside from 25 yards out, and curled the ball into the top corner.

The [£28.8m-valued](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/gareth-bale/profil/spieler/39381) winger scored 56 goals and created 58 assists in 203 appearances for the Lilywhites, before leaving for La Liga giants Real Madrid, but it seems a large section of the THFC faithful still have plenty of fond memories about the “Welsh wizard.” One supporter tweeted the video is “stunning,” while another added his “technique is unbelievable.”
