Real Madrid is a team you always have to keep in mind in the Champions League. They can occasionally have a lesser period, that team individually has so much quality that a match is completely turned around in a few minutes. We have seen that several times. Especially against Real Madrid it was almost unreal how they did that. If Benzema hadn't been on this team, they wouldn't have become champions. He has been very important. I hope for Real that he stays at Madrid.
Actually when it comes to Champions league, no Team in the whole world can compete with Real Madrid because of their vast experience in Champions league competition. They are the only team that have more than 10 Champions league titles, so when it's come to Champions league irrespective of their performance, they always show their vast experience in the Competition.
