Zidane will not request striker signing despite Benzema banks

in #sports7 years ago

Althouth Karim Benzema failed to score for the third time in a row, Zinedine Zidane will not be asking Real Madrid to buy a striker.

Zinedine Zidane will not ask Real Madrid to sign a striker in the January transfer window despite Karim Benzema's latest dry spell extending to three matches.

The France international drew another blank as Madrid came from behind to beat Al Jazira 2-1 in the Club World Cup semi-final on Wednesday, Benzema missing presentable chances and being denied by the woodwork,

Goals from fellow 'BBC' members Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo turned the game around for Spanish and European champions Madrid, and getting them a slot in the finals where they will face Copa Libertadores titleholders Gremio.

Im not going to ask for a signing at all, Karim is fine although he has not scored, You can always give an opinion, it seems that Karim has to always score, he has played well, he has moved well, he and Cristiano. Im a litle disappointed because he wanted to score, im happy with everyone's game. Yes, we have suffered, but it happens if football, sometimes the ball does not want to go in and we have to play with this from time to time  - Zidane

While Benzema endured a dificult game, Bale made an immediate impact on his return from injury by scoring yhe winning goal, although Madrid's win could have been more emphatic if video assistant reply (VAR) decisions had gone their way.

Madrid next match is against Gremio, Zidane said "We saw the Gremio's game against Lanus, i know this team but i do not know the Brazillian league very well, we know its a good football team and it is going to be difficult again.
