Real Madrid News: Real Madrid beat RB Leipzig 2-0 in the Champions League and maintains its winning streak. Federico Valverde scored again in the 80th minute and Marco Asensio scored in the final minutes to seal the victory and the three points.
Los Blancos had a concern that arose from the game, and that was how weak they looked without Karim Benzema in charge for most of the time.
Benzema was injured against Celtic in the first Champions League game and hasn’t played since.
Although Real Madrid have continued to win, it is clear that they need a true number nine to lead the line. Unfortunately, they also have a match against Atletico Madrid. Rumors in the media say that Benzema will not be able to play in that one.
However, Carlo Ancelotti’s update does not seem to indicate that, because he said that Benzema could still play against Atletico Madrid on Sunday. The official website of Real Madrid cites what the Italian coach said:
“It will be necessary to see in the next few days if he can train or not. We will have nothing to lose. If he trains well on Saturday, he’ll be in the game on Sunday.”
