Both Ronaldo and Benzema scored again in Los Blancos' big win over weak opponent APOEL in Group H of the Champions League this morning. With 10 points after 5 rounds, Real has officially advanced as the second-placed team after Tottenham.
The victory over APOEL is not something "grand". However, the 6-0 result came at a time when the entire Los Blancos squad was in decline in form, especially in attack. In the last match, Ronaldo had a double and 1 assist, the same thing happened to Benzema.
If we look at the number of goals that Ronaldo or Benzema have scored since the beginning of the season in La Liga, each person having a double at this time is like a cool breeze driving away the hot heads in the Bernabeu home team.
Not only that, after Benzema criticized Ronaldo for being selfish, the "Lazy reward" had 1 assist for CR7 and the opposite also came from the Portuguese superstar. Not only "compassionately", this duo reconciled with each other, but their actions proved that right on the field.
For Ronaldo personally, this is not the first time he has fallen into a spiral of criticism as well as declining in form. However, every time like that, CR7 returned stronger than ever with goals and great form. Real fans are in need of their superstar to speak up at the right time to help the club overcome this difficult period.
Ronaldo has turned 33 this year, which means the day he will reach the sunset of his career is approaching. No one can overcome the power of time and CR7 is no exception.
If you try again, do it now, Ronaldo!
