Karim Benzema continues to prove that he is a Real Madrid legend, surpassing the 350-goal mark for the club against Almeria. The captain, who received a commemorative shirt from club president Florentino Pérez, scored a hat-trick at the Bernabéu and can now boast 352 goals in the 642 games he has played in his 14 seasons as a Real Madrid player.
