Great moment for Karim Benzemawho reached 309 goals with the jersey of Real Madrid and climbed to 3rd place in the table of scorers in the history of the “queen”.
In fact, with the hat-trick scored by the French forward against Paris Saint-Germain, overtook a legend of the “merenges”, Alfredo Di Stefano, who had scored 308 goals.
Note that Benzema is in front of him Raul (323 goals) and Cristiano Ronaldo (451 goals).
It is also worth mentioning that the 34-year-old striker became the oldest footballer to score a hat-trick in the history of the Champions League, but also the first to score in 18 consecutive calendar years for the institution!
