VIGO (Reuters) - Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane sung the praises of Karim Benzema after the French forward's two goals helped his side to a 3-1 win over Celta Vigo on Saturday and continued a prolific goalscoring run stretching to six consecutive games.

"For people who like football Karim is a joy to watch, everyone enjoys watching him and his team mates enjoy playing with him. We just hope he continues like this as he makes the difference, and he knows his team mates are important too."

He combined with Kroos again 10 minutes later to score his second, then providing an assist for Marco Asensio to clinch the victory in stoppage time after Santi Mina's goal had pulled Celta back into contention. But unlike the majority of Real's squad, Benzema will not be joining his national side next week for World Cup qualifiers.
