17 things we loved this weekend: Benzema, Messi, Garnacho, Gavi…

Wales stole the headlines over their weekend by beating Ukraine 1-0 and qualifying for their first World Cup since 1958.

Elsewhere, Cristiano Ronaldo scored a brace for Portugal and Lionel Messi managed to outdo him by scoring all five goals in Argentina’s 5-0 win over Estonia.

We’ve rounded up the best of the action on and off the field.

Nobody can deny that Benzema is the best player in the world right now.

The GENIUS that is Karim Benzema on full display again!

After a mixed season at PSG, Messi is saving his very best for Argentina.
