Gareth Bale has replaced Ian Rush as Wales' record goalscorer thanks to a superb hat-trick against China.
Taking to the field from kick-off in Ryan Giggs' first game as boss of the national team, Bale made an swift impact at Nanning's Guangxi Sports Center Stadium by crafting an excellent second-minute solo goal.
A brace from Burnley striker Sam Vokes either side of a stylish finish from Hull City's on-loan Liverpool youngster Harry Wilson piled further misery on China and Bale slotted home to make it 6-0 - claiming the matchball and usurping Rush at the top of his country's all-time standings.
RECORD BREAKER!!!! GOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLLL!!!!! runs through for a well taken goal, which makes him the highest goalscorer Welsh history! March 22, 2018
