Zapping World Eleven EXCLUDED: Ronaldo, Ben Arfa, Lassana Diarra… Hannibal Mejbri’s dream eleven!
Despite his two missed penalties on the lawn of Osasuna on Wednesday (1-3), Karim Benzema will once again be Real Madrid’s main offensive weapon on Tuesday (9 p.m.), in the Champions League semi-final first leg against Manchester City.
While waiting for this shock at the Etihad Stadium, Christian Karambeu, who wore the jersey Meringue for three seasons (1997-2000), paid a vibrant tribute to KB9.
“It’s a flagship and exceptional season, but even knowing his talent, his desire to always be on top … I’m rather admiring,” said the 1998 world champion, at the microphone of Téléfoot.
This season, Karim Benzema has scored 39 goals and provided 13 assists in 40 games in all competitions for Real Madrid. An impressive total which could therefore increase against Manchester City.
