As France aims for back-to-back World Cups, is Olivier Giroud the man who unlocks the team's true potential?

But this is a France team that is one of the deepest international teams in recent memory. The 2022 World Cup was set to be Benzema’s first since 2014. As Mbappe became one of the best young forwards in the game, Giroud was the man he teamed with on the international level. “There’s a very good complicity between them,” France assistant coach Guy Stephan said earlier in the World Cup. He then added another in the second half with his head to tie Thierry Henry for the most men’s national team goals ever.

PARIS — (AP) — Karim Benzema won the men’s Ballon d’Or for the first time on Monday after a brilliant season with Real Madrid capped by the Champions League and Spanish league titles. Spanish player Alexia Putellas won the women’s trophy for the second straight year following another standout season with Barcelona. Benzema had his best season ever at Madrid, being the top scorer in both leagues. Awarded by France Football magazine, the Ballon d'Or has been given out to men for 66 years. Benzema became the fifth Frenchman to win it after Raymond Kopa, Michel Platini, Jean-Pierre Papin and Zinedine Zidane, who was crowned in 1998, the year France won its first World Cup.

El Clasico: Real Madrid bosses Barca, propelled by an age-old rivalry's new stars

They have been grandiose occasions that somehow exceeded hype, because the quality of soccer was so ludicrously high. And they have been elevated and punctuated by stars — the ingredient that, in recent years, had gone missing. But for a few barren years, as Cristiano Ronaldo jetted to Turin and Lionel Messi to Paris, they were no longer classics. On Sunday, though, it was revitalized, and resurrected in part by a new generation of stars. But Valverde ended the 187th league Clasico with a bursting run from back to front.

But Mbappé and Haaland look ready to challenge the Frenchman for the status of Europe's top striker as they try to lead their clubs to an elusive first Champions League title. The 22-year-old Haaland has 25 goals in 20 Champions League games — also a record — after scoring once in each half of Man City's 4-0 win at Sevilla. The Norway striker, who has 10 goals in six Premier League games this season, has now netted on his Champions League debut for three clubs — Salzburg, Borussia Dortmund and City. It was his first Champions League goal in 651 days and first in any competition since January.

They are the last two games before France’s opening game of the World Cup against Australia on Nov. 22.

Messi: 'No doubt' that Benzema deserves to win Ballon d'Or

According to Lionel Messi, there is “no doubt” that Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema deserves to win his first Ballon d’Or award this year. Messi has won a record seven Ballon d'Or awards as the world's best player, but saw his new club Paris Saint-Germain eliminated by Madrid in the round of 16 of the Champions League this year — after Benzema scored a hat trick in the second half of the return leg. Benzema netted another four goals against Chelsea in the quarterfinals and three against Manchester City in the semifinals — including the decisive penalty in extra time of the second leg — before Madrid defeated Liverpool 1-0 in the final on Saturday.

Benzema has gone from one of Ronaldo’s sidekicks to Madrid’s most important player, and on Saturday he could cap his best season ever with a fifth Champions League title. A victory would allow him — and several other Madrid players — to tie Ronaldo with the most Champions League trophies.

Madrid warps time yet again to stun City at the Bernabéu

The 3-1 victory over Manchester City gave Madrid yet another comeback and set it up for a showdown with Liverpool in the Champions League final on May 28 in Paris. City was moments away from returning to the final before the substitute forward stunned the English team with his back-to-back goals, inspiring Madrid to victory like a bruised boxer who lands a knockout combination. Madrid, which had trailed City ever since minute 2 of their first-leg match in Manchester, was finally level. City entered the second leg against Madrid with the advantage after coming out on top of their 4-3 shootout last week. “A big amount of merit goes to the players and also a fanbase who push and push and push.

Benzema keeps Madrid alive in CL despite 4-3 loss to City

(AP Photo/Dave Thompson) (Dave Thompson)MANCHESTER, England — (AP) — It was the coolest of penalties at the end of one of the wildest matches in Champions League history. With his cheekily dispatched “Panenka,” Karim Benzema might just have kept Real Madrid's chances alive against Manchester City in the semifinals. City built a two-goal lead three times but just couldn’t shake off Madrid, the kings of the competition — as City manager Pep Guardiola calls them. “We are all in this until the end.”With the France striker in its team, Madrid will never lose hope. His double here — after back-to-back hat tricks earlier in the knockout stage — took his total in the Champions League this season to a competition-high 14 goals.

In a wild Champions League match that resembled a basketball game at times, City beat Madrid 4-3 in the first leg of the semifinals but will leave Etihad Stadium wondering how the record 13-time champions were still in it. Ultimately, Karim Benzema’s cheeky “Panenka” penalty in the 82nd minute saw Madrid escape with some hope of pulling off a comeback in next week’s second leg at Santiago Bernabeu. Benzema kept his composure while all around him were losing theirs, giving Madrid renewed belief of reaching a first final since 2018.

(AP Photo/Martin Meissner)With one point from its opening two games, Real Madrid is facing another fight to preserve its proud record of qualifying for the knockout stage in all of its seasons in the Champions League. Heading into the 87th minute against Borussia Mönchengladbach, Madrid was losing 2-0 and on course for four straight losses in the Champions League for the first time. Madrid is in bigger trouble, though, in its 25th campaign in the Champions League, in which the team has never been eliminated in the group stage. Defending champion Bayern Munich is having no such trouble, with a 2-1 victory at Lokomotiv Moscow extending its winning run in the Champions League to 13 games.
