DBasia.news – Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos revealed is reason to give the penalty kick to Karim Benzema. Ramos believed it would give a positive impact to the team.
Sergio Ramos became the bomber of Real Madrid’s penalty kick after the exit of Cristiano Ronaldo. Last season, Ramos often alternated with CR7 to execute the 12 o’clock kick.
When defeating Girona 4-1 in the 2018-2019 LaLiga second match, Real Madrid got two penalty kicks. Ramos became the first executor and did it perfectly.
Meanwhile, in the second penalty kick, he gave the chance to Benzema. The French player also executed it well.
“I’m the first penalty taker and Karim is the second. You cannot be selfish, you have to show companionship,” Ramos said reported by Marca.
Lopetegui was right to appoint Ramos as the main executor of Madrid. With Panenka technique, the player could scored the goal to the net.
“It was completely improvised. It’s a technique that I do sometimes and the goalkeepers usually know. But it was a good opportunity to do it,” Ramos explained.
With an additional three points, Real Madrid succeeded to replace Barcelona as the leader of LaLiga temporary standing. Despite the similar points, El Real are greater in goal difference.
