Bad evening for Karim Benzema. His Al-Ittihad team welcomed Al-Nassr for the shock at the top of the 4th day of the Saudi championship. A duel between two teams that had taken nine out of nine possible points at the start of the season.
The meeting turned in favor of visitors, who made the difference at the start of the game thanks to two their stars, Sadio Mané (9th) and the inevitable Cristiano Ronaldo (35th). Back in competition after missing four matches, Benzema remained silent.
Benzema, cold anger
After the match, Benzema went to the mixed zone when he stopped to sign an autograph. By unfolding the paper tense, the Ballon d'Or 2022 discovered a photo which obviously did not please him.
“Do you think you are funny?” You try to be very funny ”, launched a very annoyed “nude” to his interlocutor. “It's a 'trend'”tried to justify himself, without convincing the French striker. “Take your trend and take your thing”replied Benzema, by returning the pen to its owner, before resuming his way.
