Karim Benzema has every reason to be proud as he reaches a significant milestone in his career. Following his goal in the Spanish Cup against Osasuna in the round of 16, the French striker has now officially scored 99 goals for Real Madrid. This achievement places him just 5 goals shy of matching the personal record of the former Real Madrid center forward. The Brazilian legend currently holds the record with 104 goals during his time with the White House.
However, it’s important to note a distinction between the two players’ goal-scoring records. Ronaldo accomplished his 104 goals in 177 games with Real Madrid, while Benzema, in contrast, reached his tally in his 209th match with the Merengues. Despite the numerical difference, the former Lyon striker has undoubtedly made a significant impact, and emulating the exact feat of Il Fenomeno remains a remarkable challenge.
