Karim Benzema netted his 11th LaLiga Santander goal this season against Espanyol, which means that he is a couple of goals ahead of Lionel Messi in the race for the Pichichi, the award for being the league's top scorer.
The French striker netted Los Blancos' second goal to seal a 2-0 victory over the Catalan side, having taken advantage of a Fede Valverde assist.
Seven of his 11 goals have been scored at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, while he has also managed to open the scoring on seven occasions so far this season.
In total, Benzema has netted 15 times in 19 games in all competitions.
Only Robert Lewandowski (27 in 22), Ciro Immobile (19 in 17) and Timo Werner (17 in 21) have scored more goals than him in Europe's top five leagues.
