Original title: 35 years old, two consecutive hat-tricks, Benzema is no longer a “bearer”
“Don’t say that Benzema is a ‘bearer’.” Many Real Madrid fans might not help but say this from the bottom of their hearts following witnessing the excellent performance of the French striker once once more. Indeed, the current Benzema is no longer the scapegoat for the team’s poor performance, but has transformed himself into the absolute leader of the Galaxy Battleship and almost the only sharp knife that can be relied on for a long time. What’s wrong with 35-year-old Benzema at this age!
In the first half, he scored twice with a header, and in the second half, he used the opponent’s goalkeeper’s error to complete a hat-trick. Benzema handed in a perfect answer in this crucial battle, and he also became the second half of 2017. After Cristiano Ronaldo, Real Madrid is the second player to score a hat-trick in two consecutive games. In the last game once morest Paris, which was also good, the Frenchman scored 3 goals in a row, putting the team from the motherland into despair, but this time, he left the pain to the defending champion.
Throughout the 60-year history of the Champions League, in fact, only 4 players have achieved “back-to-back” scoring 6 goals in a row. In addition to the two Real Madrid forwards, there are Luis Adriano in 2014 and Messi in 2016. It can be seen that the Frenchman is enough to write his name into the history of the Champions League. Of course, for Benzema, if he can continue to have a similar good performance in the end, he can continue to set this record.
Although some people may question the “quality” of his hat-trick, following all, it included a missed goal by the opponent’s goalkeeper Mendy, but if the Frenchman has excellent pre-judgment ability and correct running route, the Senegalese may still have possibility of remedy. But it is a pity that how might the old and hot French miss such an opportunity. After stealing easily, the “hat trick” was born.
Take a look at the data that Benzema has handed over so far this season. In the Champions League, he has played 8 times and has scored 11 goals and 1 assist; he has played 26 times in La Liga, scoring 24 goals and assisting 11 times; in addition, in the Spanish Super Cup, he played 2 times, Scored 2 goals and assisted 1 time. So far, the Frenchman has made 36 appearances, scoring 37 goals and providing 13 assists. In the history of Real Madrid, only 4 players have previously scored more than 37 goals in a single season, they are Cristiano Ronaldo (8 times), Hugo Sanchez (2 times), Puskas and Diess. tifano. Benzema’s previous season with the most goals was 32 in 2011-12, and now Benzema has five more goals than that season.
