Real Madrid is headed to their first Champions League final in 12 years, and Gareth Bale is excited about it. In fact, Bale said Real's dominating win over Bayern Munich on Tuesday justified his move to the Bernabéu from Tottenham.

"This is why I came to the biggest club in the world," Bale said, via the BBC. "To win trophies and play in massive games."

Bale played a part in Real's 4-0 win Tuesday, setting up Cristiano Ronaldo's goal in the 34th minute.

"It's a fantastic result for us. We've been working hard, got our tactics right and deserved the win. Everybody put in 100 percent - no matter who it was they put in a performance."

They've made the final, but Real isn't done yet, Bale added.

"We still haven't won it yet," he said. "We have a difficult game in the final whoever it may be, but I'm looking forward to it."
