#4 Karim Benzema proves his worth, again
At Real Madrid, where the squad is packed to the rafters with stellar names, Karim Benzema often goes unnoticed. The Frenchman is regularly overshadowed by Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale and is never quite given the credit he deserves. But that doesn’t discourage him from putting in match-winning performances, just like he did against Granada.

The former Lyon striker netted the only goal of the game and secured all the three points for his side, underlying his importance to them. Today’s strike makes it four goals in four matches for Benzema, who seems to be on a goalscoring spree this season.
The Frenchman has always been a reliable goalscorer and is unstoppable when on form. The presence of more glamorous players on either sides oh him has seen him miss out on moments of reckoning under the sun. But after today’s match-winning performance, has reminded everybody of his significance.
