Real Madrid received bad news before the great Barcelona war

Benzema could not practice with the whole team at the last training session before the Super Classic match taking place at 3 am on March 21 (Vietnam time).

Benzema will be absent from the Super Classics match

Although he tried very hard to recover, he certainly could not participate in the Super Classic match at the Bernabeu.

Earlier, Benzema had suffered a problem in his left calf that forced him to leave the field early in the 3-0 win over Mallorca.

It is expected that the French striker needs an extra week to heal. Therefore, Benzema can only re-appear after the period of giving up land for the national teams to play.

Losing Benzema at this time is a huge loss for the Royal team. The 34-year-old striker is maintaining an impressive form, especially scoring a hat-trick against PSG to help Real Madrid come back upstream in the Champions League.

Real Madrid currently monopolizes the top of La Liga. However, the battle with Barcelona is still important, especially in the context of the strong revival of coach Xavi’s army.

Benzema is likely to return in early April, preparing for the epic battle between Real Madrid and Chelsea in the Champions League quarter-finals.
