Recognizing Karim, it can be normal. He has the high-quality of a No. 10, not a No. 9. It is an outstanding backheel. It can be Karim’s purpose.”
Benzema — who now has seven helps and 17 plans in the league this season — casually handed off the backheel as like any other support.
“That’s football. These items appear to me, I see soccer like that,” he advised Movistar. “I knew Casemiro was going to make the operate driving me. He took it well.
“It was a very good participate in, but the most significant point is the goal later on, Casemiro receives it proper. We are pretty pleased.”
