Karim Benzema is a great goal-scorer, but his value to Real Madrid is in his work rate and hold-up play. He showed off all his skills on this goal against Valencia, winning the ball back after a turnover, playing a quality pass and finishing off the chance for good measure.

What an assist by Cristiano Ronaldo, too. Goals don’t get much prettier.
