Egos are a tremendous thing in high competition. And many footballers have the intention of taking the bull by the antlers to guide the team to a certain result. But the Karim Benzemá thing seems an excess.
The French striker was caught at halftime of the match that Real Madrid matched at Borussia Mönchengladbach by the second date of Group B of the Champions League, in the middle of a conversation where he asked “ice law” for another of his colleagues.
As revealed by the Gala Telefoot network, Benzema told Ferland Mendy about Vinicius Jr. “He does what he wants. Brother, don’t play with him … My God. He plays against us,” says El Gato according to the transcript that has gone viral.
The truth is that Mendy paid enough attention to the supposed recommendation, since he combined the ball only three times with the Brazilian forward. Instead, the young striker gave nine passes to the French side. Quite a controversy for the dressing room of Zinedine Zidane.

The good thing for Real Madrid was that Benzemá scored at 87 ‘and then Casemiro tied the tie in extremis in the third minute of injury, after losing 2-0, with a double from Marcus Thuram.
Group B appears as one of the most contested at the beginning of the first phase of the Champions League, since the two favorites, Inter and Real Madrid, have not been able to win so far.

In this way, Shakhtar Donetsk is the leader of the series, with four points, followed by the Lombard team and Borussia Mönchengladbach with two and Real Madrid with one unit. In this way, the November 25 game between Inter and the meringues will be key.
The Champions League classifies the two best teams to the round of 16 of the continental competition, while the third place moves to the final stages of the Europa League, a tournament where Inter was a finalist in the last season.
