When a player of the stature of Gareth Bale is on the opposing team, players will do all they can to try and put him off.
In yesterday's Euro 2016 qualifier between Wales and Israel, former Premier League defender Tal Ben Haim did all he could to try and distract the Welsh star.
The 33 year old appeared to try and put a spell on the ball, as Bale prepared to take a free kick. Whether or not, Ben Haim's trick worked we will never know but the game finished 0-0.
