French striker Karim Benzema, Real Madrid’s striker and top scorer, continued his brilliance and glow this season, and led the “Royal” to victory over its host Real Mallorca at his stadium in the 28th round of the “La Liga”, where he scored two of his team’s three goals (3/0), one of them from a penalty kick. And he made a third goal for his Brazilian colleague, Vinicius Junior, to shower him with more praise and admiration, after his signs began after his team’s 3-1 victory over Paris St. In it, Benzema played the role of “saviour” with three “hat-trick” goals he scored in this fateful match.
Five goals (3 in Saint-Germain and 2 in Real Mallorca) put Benzema on the top scorer in the history of France “national and clubs” with 413 goals, two more than his compatriot Thierry Henry, the Arsenal legend.
And the last of Kalua’s links to praise Benzema is the veteran Italian star Antonio Cassano, who currently works as a broadcaster and TV commentator, although he used to attack and criticize world football stars.
Cassano said in an interview with “DAZN” network: He greatly appreciates this French striker and puts him on the same level as the “phenomenon” Ronaldo, Marco van Basten, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Robert Lewandowski, as the best 5 stars who wore the No. 9 shirt in the history of world football.
Cassano expressed his strong conviction in Benzema’s capabilities, and already sees him as one of the best strikers in the world throughout history, although he admitted that he first needed Cristiano Ronaldo to leave Real Madrid, in order to bring out all his talent and skills, and to prove that he is not just “Sinead.” ».
Cassano added: In terms of goals and assists, Benzema may be the best in history, but we must not forget that he played for a long time in the “shadow” of Ronaldo, as was Scottie Pepin under “Michael Jordan” in the NBA!!
Benzema was not the only Real Madrid player who impressed Cassano and paid him to praise him, but there is also the veteran midfield trio of Casemiro, Luka Modric and Toni Kroos.
Regarding Casemiro, Cassano said: This Brazilian star reminds me of the former French midfielder Makelele, a smart player and pomegranate. He added that he played a major role in the victory of “Real Zidane” with three consecutive Champions Leagues, and commented, “I think Casemiro, with Xavi, Iniesta, Pirlo, Frank Rijkaard and Modric, is one of the best midfielders I have known and seen.”
As for Kroos, Cassano said: The German has won 4 Champions Leagues, in addition to winning the World Cup with his country. He is very strong, and because he was able to play at the highest professional level for many years at Real Madrid, this means that he is a champion.
On the other hand, Cassano admitted that he is not very impressed with the Brazilian winger, Vinicius Junior, and does not like the showy side, and said: It is true that he is very fast, but he resembles his veteran compatriot Robinho, dribbling a lot and wonderful in bilateral confrontations, but he does not score much and misses the final touch sometimes Many and does not shoot hard when ending the attack.
