In a thrilling match, Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema scored his first goal for the club against Al-Nassr in the Saudi Arabian Professional League. The match was played at King Abdullah Sports City in Riyadh on Monday night.
Benzema, who joined Real Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain last summer, was making his debut for the club and started the game as a substitute. He came on in the 57th minute and immediately made an impact by scoring the only goal of the match.
The French forward, known for his pace and skill, showed his quality on the pitch by beating several defenders before slotting the ball past the goalkeeper. His goal was a testament to his fitness and determination, as he had been struggling with injuries in recent weeks.
Despite the loss, Al-Nassr manager Paulo Bento praised Benzema's performance, saying that "he is a great player and I am happy for him." The Brazilian coach also expressed his admiration for Real Madrid's style of play, saying that it is one of the best in the world.
The victory over Al-Nassr is a significant boost for Real Madrid, who have struggled recently. It will be important for them to continue their good form and maintain their position in the league standings. However, they will need to work hard if they want to challenge for the title this season.
