Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane is delighted for Karim Benzema over his good press this week.

Benzema has been celebrated for his assist at Atletico Madrid.

Zidane stated: "I'm happy for him and what people have said after the Champions League semi-finals.

"I know the kind of person Karim is and I didn't need any excuse to praise him. he is an incredible player. We always ask him to score goals as he is the Real Madrid number nine, but he knows how to do a lot of things and I'm interested in how he plays with the others as we have Cristiano Ronaldo and Morata who can also provide goals."
