Real Madrid played a really tough match against Athletic Bilbao last night. But it was surprising to see three goals in only the first ten minutes. But after that, we saw zero goal. Real Madrid managed to keep the score at 2-1 very well until the last moment. Benzema had another great day that he scored 2 goals and played a big role in this win.
Benzema is on fire again and one more match he brings Real Madrid to perfect ending. These two goals are his response to what the crowd tried to attack him when he missed many chances last week. They don't realize that Real Madrid rely too much on Benzema and one bad match is not enough to exclude Benzema from Real Madrid squad. I agree that Real Madrid have to get more goals from other players if they want to win La Liga. They can not totally rely on Benzema because the season is long and they must diversify their goal source from other players.Quote
Now, Sevilla will need to defeat Cadiz to keep the 5-point gap.
This win of Real Madrid put Sevilla under pressure to win again. It is very surprise to see Sevilla currently is the biggest opponent for Real Madrid, not Atletico Madrid.Indeed Benzema is taking the light from the other players in La Liga along with V.Junior scoring a total of 25 goals together with Benzema scoring the most currently with 15 goals. It is good for him and his club to see him performing like that, the captain is on board 
Benzema sacrificed a lot when he had to give up his opportunities to score goals to Ronaldo and had to contribute more for general operation of Real Madrid tactics. He only got a role as a main striker since Ronaldo departure to Juventus. Then the rest we all know, Benzema became a main source of goals in Bernabeu and he got the captain band as well. If we don't talk about Ronaldo, Benzema is the biggest player in Real Madrid last 10 years
