Benzema strikes late to win five-goal thriller as Real toil against Huesca


Karim Benzema scored a last-gasp winner to secure victory and spare Real Madrid’s blushes against LaLiga bottom club Huesca. After falling behind early on, Zinedine Zidane’s side thought they had turned things around through Isco and Dani Ceballos – only for the lowly visitors to hit back. But Benzema settled the game with a stunning 89th-minute strike as Madrid won 3-2 in front of a sparse Bernabeu crowd. Benzema missed a good opportunity to level from close-range before wasting another chance by shooting straight at Huesca goalkeeper Roberto Santamaria. Moments later and the visitors took their chance to level, Xabier Etxeita powering a header past Zidane to equalise.
