In the early hours of the 11th Beijing time, with Benzema and Mbappe's goals, the French team won the first European League trophy in team history.
At this point, France has also gathered the four championships of the World Cup, the European Cup, the Confederations Cup and the European League. Looking at the entire Europe, only they have gathered this honor.
The game process on the day was full of twists and turns, and the Spanish team was led by Ojazabal to break the deadlock.
After only 2 minutes, Benzema blasted a world wave, and Lightning equalized the score.
In the 80th minute, Mbappé made a final decision and helped the French team reverse Spain 2:1.
There is no doubt that Benzema's goal changed the unfavorable situation for the French team. The 34-year-old veteran singled out the team's counterattack clarion call.
After the game, Benzema was rated as the best in the game.
This man who has been "backing the pot" proved himself again this night.
Benzema won the European League trophy.
Why do you say he keeps backing up?
"Blame Benzema" is one of the most famous stalks in world football.
When Ronaldo was still playing for Real Madrid, some fans justified the idol's poor performance, and all the responsibility was transferred to Ronaldo’s partner Benzema.
Over time, the stalk of Benzema’s back pot spread, and gradually evolved into "Benzema is to blame for everything."
Whether it’s the French team’s failure to win the European Cup or Messi’s penalty kick, there is only one sentence: "Blame Benzema." Sometimes there are too many backs, and it is inevitable that people forget the true strength of Benzema. .
Benzema and Mbappé took a group photo.
Benzema was born in Lyon, a city in central France, where he also started his green career.
In 2009, Benzema, who grew up as one of the "Four Little Kings of France", transferred from the Lyon Club to Real Madrid and began to shine in the La Liga arena.
Starting from the bench, Benzema firmly occupied the position of the main center forward with one goal after another.
While proving his strength, he also became the strongest "wingman" in Real Madrid's "BBC combination".
Although there are more starting opportunities, Benzema's main task is to support, screen, pull and run.
Seeing Cristiano Ronaldo and Bell flying together, Benzema seemed to have only one "cauldron" of losing the game.
Until recently, Ronaldo and Bell left the team one after another, Benzema finally got rid of the identity of the "green leaf".
As the "killing weapon" of Real Madrid's striker, the former "backbone man" took the offensive banner and became a well-deserved "thigh" in the team.

After the start of the season, Benzema, the older and more demon, topped the scorer list with 9 goals, and Real Madrid also ranked first in the La Liga standings under his leadership.
Since joining Real Madrid, Benzema has always been the main center in the "White Coat".
No matter which coach, no matter what tactics, no matter who the partner is, Real Madrid has always had a place for Benzema.
Even people like Ronaldo, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Higuain and others failed to do this, but Benzema did.
No matter what role he plays on the field, Benzema can always complete the task outstandingly.
"I am a brick, and move where I need it" is undoubtedly the most true portrayal of Benzema.

But such a player with superior strength and comprehensive skills has missed the national team for 6 years.
In 2015, Benzema was detained by the police on suspicion of blackmailing his French teammates.
In December of the same year, he was banned from playing for the French team.
In the days when Benzema left the national team, the Gaul Roosters won the European Cup runner-up and the World Cup champion. With all these honors, Benzema became a bystander.
However, after the 2018 World Cup, coach Deschamps began to worry about the team's sluggish offensive, and Benzema's call for returning became increasingly louder.
In mid-May this year, Benzema finally appeared in the French team's roster for the first time in six years.
Data map: On November 4, 2015, Benzema was accompanied by his assistant to the Versailles police station. The "Team Daily" then revealed that Benzema was detained on suspicion of using indecent video to blackmail Valbuena.
In this summer's European Cup, Benzema scored 4 goals in 4 games and also scored twice.
Although the French team said goodbye to the European Cup early, Benzema did not let the regret reappear in the European League.
Once forgotten, he finally let the world know himself again in 2021.
From "Blame Benzema" to "We still have to look at Benzema at critical moments," the French spent nearly a decade tore off the label of "back pot man".
From an obscure green boy, to being the mainstay of the offensive of the green leaves, to now becoming a trusted striker, some netizens said that such a Benzema deserves a Golden Globe Award.
Although compared to the shining Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, and even the young and promising Mbappé, Benzema, who has entered the end of his career, lacks sufficient competitiveness, but can stick to his heart in a long career. Perhaps it is the precious label on Benzema.
Whether struggling hard in the trough, or accumulating strength in silence, or being admired by thousands of people in the green field, Benzema will always be Benzema, the Lyon "boy" who runs tirelessly on the court.
Compared with personal honor, Benzema has greater wishes: "I really want to win the championship with the French team, we are going to win the World Cup!" (Reporter Xing Rui)
