Karim Benzema Scores Incredible Volley For Real Madrid Against Valencia

Karim Benzema produced a moment of magic as he wrapped up Real Madrid's victory with a stunning goal against Valencia.

Benzema scored a brace as Real Madrid beat Valencia 3-0 on Thursday to close the gap on La Liga leaders Barcelona by two points.

He bagged his first goal of the game in the 61st minute then netted a second four minutes from time in incredible fashion.

The Frenchman flicked the ball to tee himself up before unleashing a spectacular volley that smashed the back of the net.

Benzema's goal prompted a brilliant reaction from Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane, who cut a priceless figure on the touchline.

Benzema's strike sent social media wild.

"Zidane's reaction says it all," one social media user wrote.

A second tweeted: "What a f'king gooooooal. Incredible."

A third added: "Absolutely obscene."

Real Madrid have now recorded back-to-back wins since the league restarted. They resume their campaign on Sunday when they face Real Sociedad.
