Olivier Giroud and Karim Benzema, facing Jamaica on June 8, 2014 - PLV / SIPA

Since there is no more field at the moment, it is on Instagram that footballers are talking about them at the moment. So much the better for us, it's been a bit topical to get your teeth into. Interviewed by the famous Mohammed Henni, Karim Benzema dropped (a little) on Sunday evening the social network, especially when talking about "footballistically" his rivalry with Olivier Giroud. “We don't confuse F1 with karting. And I'm nice. Now, next. I don't even talk about him anymore. I know I am F1. "

A punchline very violent (and a little free, it must be said) that the striker of Real Madrid nuanced a few minutes later, without that really dampened the point.

"After if we talk about style of play, his suits the French team well. It is good because there are players like Mbappé or Griezmann who are fast and who evolve in the corridors or turn around the center-forward. He, in front, he weighs on the defenses, which allows the other two to move a lot and show themselves. It blocks and it works. After that, it will not be spectacular, you will not say 'Wow dinguerie et tout' ... Does everyone like this game? I do not know. But it's going well with the French team. "
