"The main thing is we have a chance to win the Champions League again.  "I felt we were close to killing the game off, but couldn't get clear-cut chances. "The reason I came to Real Madrid was to win Champions Leagues. I've got one already and I have got another chance to win another." Bale has previously come under fire for underwhelming performances in the Spanish capital, with the tag of being the world's most expensive player apparently weighing heavy on his shoulders.But the 26-year-old, who joined from Tottenham in 2013, believes things are now looking bright. He added: "I feel like I am maturing. My Spanish is getting better and I'm integrating more with the team. I feel like I have turned a corner in that sense and I'm enjoying my football here."</blockquote>
