3-1！ Real Madrid have won another victory unsurprisingly, and now that the five major leagues in Europe have only started for less than a month, there are only a few teams that can maintain a full victory. Among them, after the 1-1 draw between Paris and Monaco in this round, there is no full victory team in Ligue 1, neither Serie A nor the Bundesliga has won all, only Arsenal have won four consecutive wins in the Premier League, and La Liga has Betis and Real Madrid, both of which have won three consecutive wins.
In fact, this game away to Espanyol, Real Madrid almost broke the cold, if there is no Benzema. In the first half, Vinicius swept through the goal to give Real Madrid the lead. Unfortunately, before the end of the half, Real Madrid lost the ball, Joselu hit the goal with two consecutive kicks in the penalty area, even Courtois could not do anything, and the 2 teams entered the dressing room 1-1.
In the second half, although Real Madrid had the advantage on the field, they were slow to score. At the critical moment, the "savior" of Real Madrid came.
In the 88th minute, Rodrigo, who came on as a substitute, sent a cross, Benzema stepped forward to grab the point, and he did not adjust in front of the goal, directly volleying the team into the home team gate. After scoring, Benzema jumped high, originally everyone thought it was a dead end, but did not expect that the good drama was still to come.
After entering stoppage time, the Espanyol goalkeeper left the field because of a foul in front of the box, and the home team had to let Cabrera make a guest appearance as a goalkeeper, and then Benzema took a free kick, and finally a world-class pocket shot through the wall and sent the ball into the opponent's door.
From the 88th minute to the 100th minute, this short period of 12 minutes, Benzema began his own performance, he personally scored 2 goals in a row, and finally saved Real Madrid. These 2 goals, the 34-year-old Benzema played too amazingly, the first goal, Benzema's running position is amazing, and then the pad shot, and then show his cold-blooded side in front of Real Madrid fans around the world.
As for free kicks, Benzema undoubtedly brought surprises to the fans, in the past, set-pieces were the weakness of the French superstar, and he did not expect that he would directly score goals in this game.
Seeing Benzema so beautiful, I believe that many Real Madrid fans will sigh. After C Ronaldo left 4 years ago, many people questioned whether Benzema could finally carry the team. Later, Zidane even advocated the introduction of Hazard, hoping that he could replace C Ronaldo.
In the past two seasons, Benzema has finally broken out, and he has almost single-handedly helped Real Madrid reach the top of the Champions League again, in contrast, Hazard, who was pinned high hopes by former Real Madrid manager Zidane, lost himself at the Bernabeu.
This game against Spain, in the second half, Real Madrid was delayed in scoring, and An Shuai chose to replace the young rodrigo and did not need Eden Hazard, and it turned out that An Shuai's choice was extremely correct. After coming off the bench, it was Rodrigo who delivered a key assist to help Benzema score.
If an Shuai had been replaced by Hazard at that time, the result would be difficult to say. In the first 2 rounds of La Liga, Hazard came off the bench, including the second round of away play against Celta, Benzema in order to help Hazard score, took the initiative to concede penalties, the result of Hazard did not grasp. Although Hazard vowed to let the fans see the best of himself in the new season, but it is clear that An Shuai can not believe him, now Real Madrid urgently need to adjust the lineup to score goals, An Shuai will certainly not consider Hazard at the first moment, because replacing him is most likely to waste a substitution place, and now in Real Madrid, Hazard is not as good as Rodrigo, he is afraid that even Asensio can't compare!
