Real Madrid captain Karim Benzema left to a standing ovation at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium. The French striker scored a penalty against Athletico Bilbao but could not avoid the draw.

After 14 years in the mythical white jersey, Benzema will fly at 35 years old to new adventures. According to Saudi state television, the club of Al-Ittihad makes him a golden bridge. The France international equalised in the 72nd minute against the Basques and was replaced two minutes later by Luka Modric.
