Real Madrid has long since become the most decorated club in Europe.
Last night (Wednesday) she added another trophy to her collection, after winning the Super Cup with a 0:2 victory against Frankfurt.
But with all due respect to the team as a whole, there is one player that all eyes are on, and that is Karim Benzema.
The Frenchman, who scored the Blancos' second in the 65th minute, made another history in the white uniform, with his 324th goal for Real Madrid.
In doing so, he overtook the legend of the past Raul by one goal, and became the team's second top scorer of all time.
The first place is still held by Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored no less than 450 of these.
The striker received many compliments throughout Europe, and the one who was quick to comment on his performance was the former German midfielder, Bastian Schweinsteiger, who is certain that the Frenchman must soon win the only title he still has left to achieve: "Right now he is the best central striker in the world. Not only the goals he scores are impressive, for me, It is extraordinary how intelligently he moves with the ball. There is no doubt that he will win the Ballon d'Or 2022!".
Currently the best center forward of the world - @Benzema.
Not only the goals he scores are impressive.
For me, it's exceptional how intelligent he is moving off the ball.
No doubt he will win the Ballon d'Or 2022!

Carlo Ancelotti, who won his fourth Super Cup title as a coach - the most in history - said at the end: "We deserved to be in this final after the season we did. Frankfurt made it difficult for us but we didn't lose our passion and took control of the game after the first goal. It's always difficult at the beginning This season, but the atmosphere here gives results."
The coach added about his striker: "He is a leader. I never had any doubts about him. He has a lot of goals and now he should win the Ballon d'Or. We got here a lot thanks to him."
The president of the club, Floretino Peres: "With the staff we have, we are not thinking about additional signings for Real Madrid this summer."
Florentino Pérez: "With the squad we have, we do not contemplate any more signings for the Real Madrid team this summer", he told Cope.
