Real Madrid in this match presented a combination of Benzema, Callejon, Özil, Granero up front.
Missing Chen Zhong, and lacking a key figure to hold the fort, Real Madrid in this match seemed soulless.
Perhaps the 8-0 victory in the first leg against Levante made Benzema unable to muster much enthusiasm to play this match. After all, win or lose, the result seemed unaffected, and Benzema also showed no signs of wanting to prove himself.
Lazily running on the field, he seemed somewhat self-indulgent.
Ultimately, this French center forward finished the approximately 75-minute match with zero shots.
On the sidelines, Mourinho looked at Benzema, his eyes clearly showing discontent.
This was a match that even a pure youth team could have passed.
Mourinho let Benzema play, clearly wanting him to take up a leading role and show his abilities.
But Benzema seemingly didn't understand Mourinho's good intentions, and could even be said not to have played well at all in this match.
