Olivier Giroud compared to Karim Benzema, it is "karting" against "F1" according to the Real Madrid player, not tender with his compatriot even if he conceded in a video that the profile of the Chelsea striker was well suited to the French team.
"We do not confuse F1 and karting," launched Benzema on Instagram Sunday evening, when asked about the 2018 world champion in a live video. "And I'm nice. I know I am F1. He has his career, he does what he wants, he sets the goals he wants".
The center-forward of Real, more recalled in the France team since October 2015 and the start of the case of blackmail with sex tape against Mathieu Valbuena, for which he was indicted, however then explained the usefulness of Giroud in the Blues system.
"If we talk about style of play, his suits the French team well. It is good because there are players like (Kylian) Mbappé or (Antoine) Griezmann who are fast or revolve around the center, he, in front, he weighs on the defenses, which allows the two others to move a lot and to show off. He blocks and it works (...) Does everyone like this game? don't know. But it's going well to the French team, "said Benzema.
