Real Madrid fans attempted to kick Gareth Bale's car after the Welshman refused to sign autographs at the club training ground.

Real were beaten at the Bernabeu by city rivals Atletico Madrid 2-1 on Saturday night leaving Carlo Ancelotti's men with just three points from their first three La Liga matches.

Real Madrid fans waiting outside the Valdebebas training complex for autographs were obviously not impressed when Bale failed to stop and roll down the windows of his Bentley.

Driving up the road, a two fans kicked out at the white sports car, with one appearing to make contact.

Team-mates Toni Kroos and Raphael Varane also reportedly received abuse from fans, although video footage does not exist.

Real Madrid host FC Basel in the Champions League on Tuesday night before returning to La Liga action against Deportivo on Saturday.
