The debut of the world and a media scandal in one evening - this is how Karim Benzema's career in Al-Hilal began. The French forward immediately achieved his class by scoring a hat-trick in the match against Al-Ahdud, which ended in a miserable victory for his new team with a 6:0 victory.
As a result of this result, Al-Hilal has a significant lead in the league, with 50 points and ahead of its closest rivals - Al-Akhlita An-Nasr - by 3 and 4 points..
While holy on the field, the post-match press conference was heavily influenced by the recent transfer of Benzema from the camp of a direct competitor - Al-Ittihad, coached by Sergio Conceicao. When the journalists tried to understand the real reasons for the conflict and the rupture of the contract, Karim tried to get rid of the bitter quandaries:.
" I feel the miraculous energy of this group and this club,” said Volodar of the Golden Ball.
However, one meal still prompted the forward to change his tone.
Let’s talk about those who never left the team without saying goodbye to their partners, Benzema expressed a mysterious emotion:.
You know this? You really know? Power them up. feed the Gravians! "
With this phrase, the Frenchman made it clear that the official version of his approach may differ from reality, and his contacts with the Al-Ittihad team were overwhelming, although they were not reported by the press.. Nowadays, Benzema's big club is preparing for a clash with An-Nasr, which, ironically, will be played without Cristiano Ronaldo.
