Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema is determined to build on his performance in victory over Athletic Bilbao.

The France international played a starring role in Saturday's 5-1 Primera Division mauling of Athletic Bilbao, scoring once and being heavily involved in two other goals.

"I can't say if it was the most complete game because I have had other more decisive matches in the past," he told AS.

"But the most important thing is that, after my injury, I felt very good physically. After 15 days out I needed to feel the pleasure of playing again.

"My best game is still to come!"
