A complete lie.

He only scored the opener in the final of your last CL win. :lol: And 2 goals in the semis.

And was decisive in the 2014 semis as well, scoring your only goal in a valuable 1-0 win vs Bayern on Bernabeu. And then was decisive as well when you were in trouble vs Atletico in 2017, 0-2 on Calderon, basically creating the goal that sealed the tie. All of these are key moments, just like I said. And that's only what I remember.

You said he was consistently decisive in the semis. Which is a lie.

What happened to Asensio ? This man was pure gold in 16/17 and 17/18. Anyone remember his match against Valencia in 2017 ? It was an one-man-show from him. Was three times better than noe.

And you will never see two goals like that again, not because they were good, but because the keepers literally gave him the ball.

The one with Karius is a great goal for Benzema, and only heightens his position as one of the best of his generation. That is not luck. That is instinct, and always being alert, with your head in the game. Other players would switch off there, but he was focused, and that's why he created that blunder and the goal.

Well, he did have a severe injury, but he was never really a consistent performer, more like a super-sub.
Which reminds me...he turns 25 in January, not a promising talent anymore.

Yep, most of his breakout was based on episodic extraordinary goals. Had a period where he scored them every other game, but his game was never polished enough.
