The performance might not go unnoticed! This Sunday morning, the Spanish media As and Marca put on the front page the great victory (4-1) of Real Madrid once morest Valencia (4-1), Saturday night in La Liga, and the new festival of Karim Benzema. “They are having fun” says Marca with a photo of the Frenchman and his Brazilian sidekick Vinícius Junior. The two players achieved a double, also greeted by Ace in the One.
For Benzema, these two goals allow him to exceed the symbolic bar of 300 achievements under the jersey of the “White House”. His club posted on social networks a photo montage in which KB9 appears as the hero of the film “300”.
“It’s a pride to put these figures in this club, it makes me very happy,” said the person on Movistar. This club is the best in the world for me. We had a great match following the loss once morest Getafe, we won the Cup and there, we played a great match in front of our home crowd, that was important. “
The numbers give the spin. This season, he has scored 22 goals in 25 games in all competitions with Real. With his 300 and 301st goals in 584 appearances, Benzema, who has long played the lieutenants of Ronado, settles in fourth place in the ranking of the best scorers in the history of the club. At 34, he is only seven goals away from legend Alfredo di Stéfano (308 goals). If Cristiano Ronaldo’s record seems unreachable (451 goals), the Frenchman should become the club’s second highest scorer and exceed Raul’s 323 goals.
Thanks to this victory, Carlo Ancelotti’s players return to victory following his misstep at Getafe last weekend (1-0), and consolidate his place as leader of the Liga with eight points ahead of his runner-up, Sevilla FC, which receives Getafe on Sunday (4:15 p.m.). The Merengue will fly in the coming days to Saudi Arabia where they will play in the Spanish Super Cup.
