One of the two goal scorers in the meeting between Portugal and France, who gifted a real football celebration to the Budapest stadium - Karim Benzema. The Frenchman, who returned to the national team for the European Championship, accurately attacked Portugal's goal, allowing him to mark his country's team jersey for the first time in almost 6 years. The last time he sent the ball accurately into the opponent's goal was on October 8, 2015. After the match, K. Benzema commented: "I never doubted my strength, but I knew that French fans had high expectations for my return to the national team. Everyone was waiting for goals from me. I felt the pressure, but I am a professional and it affected me positively - it gave me more strength and energy." "Scoring goals brought a lot of joy and pride. I wanted to score while wearing the national team jersey because I realized the importance it creates in this championship," added the forward.
