Real Madrid 2-0 Getafe He is already 16 this season
Yesand again, Karim Benzema was the key in opening a game for real Madrid as they defeated Getafe 2-0 on Tuesday night.
The number 9 rose to head home, when things were starting to seem a little complicated for the champions and he still dreams of being crowned Pichichi this season, even with tough competition from Luis Suarez.
“It was a good goal,” Benzema said about his header afterwards. “It was a good ball from Vinicius [Junior] and entered. “
Benzema now he has 11 goals in LaLiga Santander this season, following 16 of Suarez, 13 of Lionel Messi and Youssef En-Nesyri and 12 of Gerard Moreno.
The 2020/21 campaign so far is only the latest in which the number 9 has impressed. Since Cristiano Ronaldo left for Juventus, he has contributed many more goals – 73 in total.
The penalties could allow him to get closer to Suarez’s total in the absence of Sergio Ramos.
