Benzema’s reaction

This hat-trick in 30 minutes also earned “Vini” the praise of his coach, Carlo Ancelotti, who spoke at a press conference on Tuesday evening, at the end of the match against BvB.

“It’s rare to see a player have a second half like that,” thus admired the Italian. “Apart from the goals, with energy and intensity, with extraordinary character.
