Benzema, Raul, Ronaldo, Puskas: Who is Real Madrid's greatest goalscorer?
On Thursday evening, Karim Benzema equalled Raul Gonzalez’s overall goal tally for Real Madrid.
The French maestro scored Los Blancos’ second goal in a 6-0 thrashing of Levante at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Benzema has now scored 323 goals in the famous white shirt, which puts him joint-second on the all-time list, behind only the great Cristiano Ronaldo.
