La Liga – Benzema and Real, back to school successful!

Seeing the sequence of Karim Benzema with Eden Hazard, on the opening of the score of the first city, we could suspect that the two men have been playing together for several years. In reality, the Belgian, constantly bothered by injuries since his arrival in Spain from Real Madrid, is simply preparing to play an entire season with the Merengue. The Frenchman has been riding his wave for several years now. The Madrid No.9, excellent as a lieutenant in the presence of Cristiano Ronaldo and phenomenal since his departure for Juventus, has ideally started the 2021/2022 fiscal year with his team.

Just after the break, the best tricolor of the last Euro took advantage of a sublime pass on a heel from Eden Hazard to open the mark with a beautiful volley. Less than twenty minutes later, he is still present in the opposing penalty area to receive a superb cross from Valverde and score, in two times, a double. Thanks to his two achievements, Karim Benzema became the top French scorer in the five major championships in 2021 (17 goals) ahead of Kylian Mbappé (15 goals).

On the way to the Pichichi?

Proof that the former Lyonnais dedicates an immeasurable cult to his club, Karim Benzema has also become the second French player in history to score 281 goals for the same club in official competition after Roger Courtois with FC Sochaux-Montbéliard. His performances, at 33, make him a monster of longevity like Robert Lewandowski for example.

Technical leader, part of the team and above all captain with the departure of Sergio Ramos from Paris Saint-Germain, the French driver is a real all-round asset for the new coach of Casa Bianca, Carlo Ancelotti. Since the transfer of “CR7” and with the arrival of Lionel Messi in the French capital, Karim Benzema is now the favorite for the “Pichichi” classification which rewards the top scorer of the Liga season. With his double from the first day, which earned him the honorary title of man of the match, it would be a fair reward …
