^ I don't think without Benzema Real Madrid would be in this position and situation. Liverpool defenders are obviously going to keep a close eye on Benzema.
I am actually not going to be surprised if Liverpool actually always marks him with one defender all the time. Benzema is going to be a big threat for Liverpool.
We already know that Real Madrid currently have an unbalanced team, between the defensive sector and the attacker. But we also know that this is a team that has no problem conceding goals. Therefore, they usually become more effective when the opponent starts to think they have the game won or fully controlled. And that will be the biggest challenge for the Liverpool manager, to make the players maintain a high level of concentration throughout the match.
Even though at the moment Real Madrid can't be said to have a balanced sector, but when the moment becomes important then they can play very well. We will also at least remember that their process to get to the final was not easy, and that's what I say in certain moments they can be very perfect. If Real Madrid get a good moment like that again in the final, then of course the victory will be theirs.
