Karim Benzema made waves on social media this Tuesday after scoring an incredible golazo during Real Madrid’s training session on the UCLA campus in Los Angeles, California. The Frenchman plucked a high ball out of the sky before lifting it over his opponent and then finishing ruthlessly clinically.
Benzema, absolutely key to Madrid’s ludicrously successful 2021/22 season that saw them win both La Liga and the Champions League, missed their opening pre-season friendly of the new campaign, a 1-0 defeat to Barcelona in Las Vegas.
But it’s expected he could be back this evening, when Carlo Ancelotti’s troops take on Mexican side Club America. They close out their pre-season campaign on Saturday evening, when they face Juventus, before returning to Europe to lock horns with Europa League-winners Eintracht Frankfurt in the European Super Cup. They kick off their defence of their La Liga title against newly-promoted Andalusian outfit Almeria on August 14th.
