Karim Benzema is one of those forwards who, as well as keeping the opposing side’s goal in his sights at all times, is able to take his time at decisive moments and find the team mate in the best scoring position. He has demonstrated this in the last two matches against Ajax and Barcelona, when he delivered three through passes, all of them to Cristiano Ronaldo. Together with the pass he made to Higuaín on day three of the League against Granada, they make the French star Real Madrid’s most prolific supplier of assists so far this season.
