Zidane returns, Benzema scores 59% of Madrid's goals
Karim Benzema is getting better after Zinedine Zidane's return to the Real Madrid chair. The French bomber scored more than half of Madrid's goals.
Zidane returned to the Madrid bench at the end of the 2018/2019 season. El Real picked up five wins in 11 Spanish league matches and suffered three defeats to finish third in the final standings by 19 points from champions Barcelona.
Whereas in this season, Madrid are unbeaten in the first two matches after beating Celta Vigo 3-1, before being held to Real Valladolid 1-1.
The US said, in that time span, Benzema had packed 10 goals in 11 appearances while Madrid scored 17 goals. This means that Benzema has contradicted 58.8% of his team's goals.
The importance of Benzema is even greater if the number of assists is also added. With the addition of three assists, Benzema means already involved in the occurrence of 12 goals from a total of 17 goals scored or 70%.
The departure of Cristiano Ronaldo in the summer of 2018 is another factor that will increase Benzema's productivity. It was said that Benzema scored an average of 14% of Madrid's goals when he was strengthened by Ronaldo. Now that percentage has doubled to 28% in the last 14 months without the Portuguese superstar.
The sharpness of Benzema was again tested this weekend. Los Merengues will travel to Villarreal's headquarters in the Spanish league's third jornada.
