Karim Benzema (34) has never looked so strong. Since Cristiano Ronaldo left for Juventus in 2018, the French striker has scored 111 goals in 174 games, improving his statistics at Real Madrid.
Remarkable performances that lead some specialists to say that the center forward of the France team has held back by remaining in the shadow of the Portuguese superstar. A finding refuted by the main interested party.
Benzema’s patience paid off
In an interview with L’Equipe, the Lyonnais first mentioned the special role he played alongside CR7. When he was playing at Real Madrid, he scored between 50 and 60 goals a year. So you have to adapt to this reality. He was more drawn to the goal than I was. I gave him decisive passes as he gave me. It was like that , underlined the former OL player, who had come to terms with this reality. However, he assured that his new status suited him much better.
When he left, what changed was that it was up to me to take over, to score goals, to make decisive passes for my other team-mates. I’m not going to say that now everything goes through me, but I’m the creator and the finisher. I create the opportunity and I finish it. If I had put a part of me between parentheses? I don’t know, but I knew for a long time that one day or another I would be where I am today. It was just a matter of time , continued Benzema.
Benzema grateful to Ronaldo
Grateful, the captain of the White House did not want to spit in the soup. It didn’t stop me from being the best version of me earlier. We won a lot of titles, I really enjoyed myself. To think like that is to think individually. I won all my Champions League with him, many championships, we scored I don’t know how many goals, we were part of the magic trio with Bale, there are a lot of very good points and I don’t see any black , completed KB9. CR7 will appreciate the tribute.
