Benzema’s reaction
This hat-trick in 30 minutes also earned “Vini” the praise of his coach, Carlo Ancelotti, who spoke at a press conference on Tuesday evening, at the end of the match against BvB.
“It’s rare to see a player have a second half like that,” thus admired the Italian. “Apart from the goals, with energy and intensity, with extraordinary character. He will win the Ballon d’Or, not because of tonight, but because of last year. There are three goals that will help him win the next Ballon d’Or. »
