Cool finish: Aaron Ramsey scores from the penalty spot
The key moment came 10 minutes after the break. Bale’s backheel to Gunter fell short and left-back Ziegler attempted to cut out the pass before it reached the Nottingham Forest defender but succeeded only in sending him flying. Ziegler was dismissed.
Just moments later the referee gave in and granted one of the requests for a Wales spot-kick.
Bale had been a thorn in the Swiss side all evening and defender Timm Klose took one liberty too many inside the area as the Spurs man attempted to find Gunter.
