Real Madrid attacker Cristiano Ronaldo was delighted with his hat-trick in their rout of Athletic Bilbao.
He already has 17 goals this season.
"We're still getting better. It's the start of the season, we have room to improve and we are growing. It was a very good game, we scored five goals and didn't concede any," said Ronaldo.
"Benzema is the best striker in La Liga for me and one of the best in the world. He deserves it and we're very happy with him. He is a team player and Benzema and Chicharito are doing a great job. We're very happy with them."
