The season 2021-2022 was a 'dreamed' for Karim Benzema. The French, that has done charge to lead the attack of the Real Madrid from the exit of Cristiano Ronaldo, finished of 'explode' all his potential and was the maximum figure of the 'triplete' achieved by the merengues, those who attained to raise the League, the Champions League and the Supercopa of Spain with the 'cat' as leading. This big level carried him to be awarded with the Balloon of Gold, that was the 'guinda' of a course excelso of the '9'.
However, the present campaign of the forward has not gone as it expected . The footballer is accusing the enormous physical effort made during the year and has been very punished by the injuries, that have kept him in the dry dam in 7 of the 18 parties contested by the group directed by Carlo Ancelotti in what it goes of season. To the not being to 100%, the performance of the player has seen extremely mermado, leaving in the happened the level showed in the 21-22.
This has remained in evidence in the phase of groups of the current edition of the UEFA Champions League. Benzema Did not annotate neither an alone goal in the four parties of which formed part, being the first time in all his career that remains without celebrating some so much in this stage of the European competition. In spite of that only it played two complete meetings, the true is that the one of Lyon follows being very far of his best version.
And it is that the international with the French selection carried 17 consecutive seasons marking, at least, a target in the first round of the championship. A series that saw cut because of the abysmal state of form in which I find the 'star' madridista. The footballer went back to the terrains of games the past Wednesday in the crash in front of the Celtic after being 10 days of drop, and although the party already was sentenced, the ariete could not add to the list of goleadores.
The youngsters take a step forward
In front of the absence of Karim, has been the trio of youngsters 'cracks' of the Madrid those who have guided to the team. Vinícius Jr., Rodrygo and Fede Valverde took the 'witness' of Frenchman and have consecrated like the maximum scorers of the White House in what it goes of campaign. Vini Leads the ranking with 10 so many, gone on down the 'falcon' with 8 and the ex of the Saints with 7. Behind them it finds Benzema, that has celebrated 6 targets while it has been available and will look for to increase his once recovered account of his physical problems.
