French star Karim Benzema responded on the field to a prison sentence imposed by scoring a goal with his Spanish team, Real Madrid in the European Football Champions League, and he also responded through social networking sites yesterday, Thursday.

On Wednesday, a court in Versailles, France, imposed a one-year suspended prison sentence and a fine of 75,000 euros on the French national football team striker and Real Madrid's top scorer, after convicting him of trying to blackmail his former teammate Mathieu Valbuena with a sex tape.

Benzema contributed to Real Madrid's 3-0 victory over its host, Sheriff Tiraspol, on the day of the ruling, to lead the royal to the top of their group in the Champions League.

Staying focused on what i love the most… ☄️
