Karim Benzema does not see action from the past 23 January, in the tie of the Real Madrid in front of the Elche (2-2). This Sunday went out him all bad to the French, that topó with an inspired Édgar Badía and with the misfortune of errar a penal in the first part. For I satisfy, a prick in his left leg forced him to abandon the field of game to the 58 minutes, in what it seemed a lower injury. However, after 17 days, the forward and captain 'white' follows without training with his mates, to only a week of the most important party of the season up to now.
The French suffered a partial break of the biceps femoral of the left leg and, although it reappeared in Valdebebas the past Friday, his presence only was a mirage. The annoyances reappeared the Saturday and the '9' of the Madrid remained out of the announcement to receive to the Granada the Sunday, split that the 'merengues' attained to resolve thanks to a solitary so much of Marco Asensio to 15 minutes of the end. The absence of Karim weighed the past week in the Glass of Rey, where the ones of Carlo Ancelotti were deleted in Bilbao by the Athletic (1-0) with a goal of Álex Berenguer on the end.
It is clear that the Madrid is not the same team without his forward crashes. The Frenchman is, by far, the best player of the team and, in spite of the good moment of Vinicius Jr, the 'white' lose depth and forcefulness without his '9'. It is almost sure that the 'crack' will not be the Saturday in the visit to the Villarreal, in a key party to avoid that the Seville them cut advantage in LaLiga. The ones of Unay Emery come to win to one of the teams more in shape of the championship, the Betis (0-2) and home can lastimar seriously to a Madrid that recovers to Vinicius, but no to his captain.
Benzema Great 17 goals and 7 assistances in 21 apparitions with the Madrid in the 2021-22. Previous to his injury practically had played it all, with a total of 1708 minutes on the green. In Paris know that the party of the Tuesday is key to bend the scales of the eliminatory home and expect to rid of the '9' of the French selection. Without Karim, the PSG understands that the Real is less dangerous and will look for to attack from the minute 1 the arch of Tibhaut Courtois, the one who surely will have a day very atareada in the Park of the Princes. Besides, this year no longer it applies the rule of the 'goal of visitor', by what each team will have to try win by the greater possible margin to classify.
Ancelotti Does not want to risk
The Italian knows better that anybody the risk that suppose the muscular injuries, where a turn precipitated to the field can be disastrous. The FC Barcelona already has suffered this bad with Ansu Fati and, thus, 'Carletto' prefer to take the things calmly. Benzema Will not be summoned until it was not 100% recovered and, if it has to lose the duel of gone in front of the PSG, will not have gone back of leaf. It is almost safe the absence of the forward for the Sunday, by what his incógnita will keep , probably, until the moment to issue the official announcement for the Champions.
