France-Bulgaria: Benzema leaves with injury one week before the first match of the Euro

The Real Madrid center forward, recalled to everyone’s surprise for the Euro (June 11-July 11), was released in the 39th minute with an injury above the right knee. He was replaced almost immediately by Olivier Giroud.

Before his exit, the 33-year-old winced after visibly landing poorly on an attempted header into the Bulgarian area. First strapped, he then demanded a change in the management of the Blues.

He did not join the locker room but took his place in the stands with the substitutes for the France team, after greeting the public who applauded him when leaving the pitch.

During this meeting, striker Antoine Griezman scored a return scoring a first goal for France.
