Carvajal in extra time sealed the third Super Cup to Real Madrid

A goal from Dani Carvajal 119 minutes gave Real Madrid its third European Super Cup, a title that a bold and remarkable Sevilla stroked until Sergio Ramos forced overtime, again in 93 minutes.

Well he triumph Sevilla, who was better in ninety minutes against a decimation Madrid could have taken. He stroked revenge for the defeat two years ago in Cardiff (Wales) in the same competition, but, as in 2015 in Tbilisi against Barcelona , fell in overtime in a game full of emotion played in Trondheim (Norway).

Both Zidane and output Sampaoli surprised. The French fielded: Kovacic and Asensio and left on the bench Benzema, the only member of the BBC available. The Argentine coach, in his official debut with Sevilla, elected Kiyotake, Iborra and Vitolo and reserved to Konoplyanka, Kranevitter and Sarabia.

Seven changes every eleven respect to the finals of Champions League and Europa League played three months ago, forced by injury ( Ronaldo , Pepe, Navas), caution (Bale, Kroos) or because they are no longer (Banega, Gameiro, Krychowiak Coke). Too many to draw conclusions, and even less without finishing the preseason.

Sampaoli had announced he wanted a brave hero and Sevilla, who will shrink against the rival. And what if he did. He placed a line of three behind and turned Mariano extreme. Pressure high, and with the touch as a seal. A very remote style so successful that gave Unai Emery .

Sevilla had the ball and drowned the ball out of Madrid. Casemiro suffered, who lost any committed ball. But it needed more fluidity in the distribution Iborra and N'Zonzi. And it did not generate much danger compared to the possession he had.

Benzema travels to Trondheim

Zinedine Zidane , coach of Real Madrid finally ruled the Welshman Gareth Bale and German Toni Kroos to dispute the final of the European Super Cup against Sevilla, the end for which it is recovered French Karim Benzema and all white faces with heavy casualties.

In the absence of the Costa Rican Keylor Navas in goal and the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo , Pepe and Fabio Coentrao , discards Bale and Kroos are added. After three spring training after joining the scheduled day for the dispute of the European Championship, Zidane has chosen not to take risks and even summons to travel to Trondheim.

Madrid coach chooses the players who have more pace and those who have completed the first part of the preseason. Among them committed one of his sons, Luca Zidane, as third goalkeeper to the withdrawal of the injured Keylor Navas.

It is the first call for official party for the two 'signings' madridistas so far, midfielder Marco Asensio and striker Alvaro Morata . Llorente and homegrown Mariano Marcos also listed although the club seeks a way out in the form of assignment.

The squad made ​​up of : Kiko Casilla , Ruben Yanez, Luca Zidane, Carvajal, Danilo , Sergio Ramos , Varane, Nacho , Marcelo , Casemiro, Marcos Llorente, Kovacic, Modric, Isco , Asensio, James, Lucas Vázquez, Mariano, Morata and Benzema.

"Karim Benzema is innocent," said one of the blackmailers

The so - called 'case Valbuena' could overturn in the hours following the interview with the daily L'Equipe by Mustapha Zouaoui 'Sata', one of the 'blackmailers' involved, who believes that Karim Benzema is innocent.

Karim Benzema was accused in October 2015 of conspiracy to blackmail his fellow French selection for an alleged sex tape.

"He made ​​a mistake, he just wanted to warn Valbuena of the existence of a sex tape". "Zouaoui, who says that French is not the only player who saw the video said Djibril Cisse knew of the existence of the video and it is not involved in the plot".

Explains Zouaoui she told Benzema to joke about it, but delatero of Real Madrid was not amused. "I really feel bad I said Valbuena was very fragile and at a joke like that was capable of suicide Ni even wanted to see , "says Zouaoui.

Zouaoui Benzema then pushed through one of his friends, Karim Zenati, so that the player spoke about this with Valbuena. "It was there when Benzema made the big mistake." The blackmailer says the merengue striker set out the facts so that it seemed that it was he who was blackmailing her companion: "Valbuena asked: 'tattoos look and Benzema replied:'? You think I'm kidding ' A guy came to me and told me about the video, gave details of what you did. Frankly, it's horrible. "

"The cops took it by the declaration of a criminal, when Karim Valbuena wanted to help," insists Zouaoui.

Finally, Zouaoui said the French striker is very angry with him for everything it happened: ".. Benzema is very angry with me know I did not do it on purpose to put in this shit I did not know they had us under hear" he said.

'Sata', which is now in prison for violating his judicial control after passing and four months in prison between October and February this year by this instruction, tells how he himself revealed to Benzema, at a meeting in Madrid in September 2015 the existence of the video, which had in its possession since March of that year.

According to his account, the player merengue received very seriously that information and was concerned about the effect it could have broadcast that video, did not want or see, for Valbuena - "Mathieu is able to kill himself." -

Zouaoui Benzema then pushed through one of his friends, Karim Zenati, so that the player spoke about this with Valbuena.

That happens in a concentration of the French team in early October when, according to 'Sata, "Benzema made a mistake in the presentation of the facts which earned him his indictment for justice, which was already investigating.

Specifically, instead of explaining that he knew who had the video, he says "I have a friend (referring to Zenati) that can solucionarte that."

France Football Federation ban Karim Benzema indefinitely

 

Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema has been suspended indefinitely from the French national team over the sex tape blackmail case he is currently involved in with team mate Mathieu Valbuena. 

The president of the national football federation (FFF), Le Graet said today that Benzema was put under formal investigation by a French judge last month in connection with an alleged attempt to blackmail international team mate Mathieu Valbuena over a sex video.

"I have decided, it's a decision from the president of the French federation and not from the executive committee or the ethics committee, that Karim Benzema cannot play for France until the situation evolves," Noel Le Graet told a news conference. "As long as the judicial system has not decided that everything that has been published on Benzema is excessive, the federation will not change its mind," he added, while urging the judge handling the case to set up a meeting between the two players.

Le Graet was not specific about the duration of the ban but his ruling probably means Benzema cannot be called up by the national team until he is convicted or cleared of the alleged offence, putting his EURO 2016 spot in jeopardy.

Benzema has denied any wrongdoing and claims although he has been banned by a high court from contacting anyone linked to the investigation including Olympique Lyonnais forward Valbuena.

Benzema awaits the verdict of the Federation

With the European Championship next year as a backdrop, the president of the French Football Federation (FFF) will announce tomorrow whether the striker Real Madrid - Karim Benzema can remain eligible for selection as long gala charged with an alleged blackmail teammate Mathieu Valbuena .

Among the precautionary measures imposed on the Benzema she is unable to contact any of the other defendants and the victim, making it unfeasible both go to a wake-Deschamps.

The coach does not have to make any new call until next February, but down the stretch for Euro Le Graet may be tempted to remove technical responsibility of having to make a Solomonic decision such as that adopted in early November, when he left both out of your list.

Everything points to it with respect for the presumption of innocence, the president of the FFF chooses to provisionally suspend Benzema, even if it means depriving Deschamps active top scorer in France and a striker in top form.

Overcome his injury, the attacker showed that lives a sweet moment last night, scoring three goals against modest Malmoe.

"Since I was small I had problems. But I focus on my football. They can say what they want about me, as every time I do well in my club. But I only center in football and the people I it wants, "he said.

The attacker said he has the backing of Real Madrid, his companions and his coaching staff, in addition to Zinedine Zidane , who coaches the youth teams of the club.

"I have not had to wait for him to tell me to know that he supported me. It's my older brother," he said.

Zizou had stated last weekend that it would be wrong him away from the national team.
