Pérez: Benzema deserved Ballon d'Or last year and it's already unquestionable in 2022
Real Madrid's president Florentino Pérez was delighted to have won the fifth UEFA Super Cup:
"Every madridistas is very happy and very pleased to have won the UEFA Super Cup. First of all, you have to earn your place in the final and then you have to win it. It was a typical final. The two teams were aware that with any mistake could lead to the other team winning the title, but we didn't give them anything".
"We've got a great team and thanks to a job well done. We always go out to win everything and we will continue to work hard to make our fans happy. We've got a good team, a good team spirit and we have to continue improving on that because that's key to winning trophies. We're looking forward to the new season getting underway on Sunday. I ask nothing more of the players than to continue doing what they're doing now and to stick to the path they're on".
"I'm not worried if Benzema's goals dry up because we've got so many forwards that it won't be noticed. He deserved the Ballon d'Or last year and it's already unquestionable this year".
