Watch Karim Benzema's astonishing goal from 30-yards which curls into corner as Real Madrid flop in pre-season again | The Sun

REAL MADRID superstar Karim Benzema scored another stunner during pre-season.

Real took on Club America in their US tour at the Oracle Park in San Francisco on Tuesday.


Los Blancos were trailing 1-0 following Henry Martin's opener after just five minutes.

But then Benzema, 34, took charge as he played a lovely one-two with Marco Asensio on the edge of the box.

The star striker then produced a marvellous curling strike from 30 yards around the defender and into the bottom left corner of Guillermo Ochoa to equalise after 22 minutes.

Fans absolutely lost it with that world-class finish and flooded social media to praise the talismanic Frenchman, who proved once more why he's a favourite for the Ballon d'Or.

Benzema's marvellous goal, though, couldn't lead Real to victory in California.

Eden Hazard gave the reigning European champions the lead with a penalty kick on 55 minutes.

But America equalised with a spot kick of their own as Alvaro Fidalgo beat Andriy Lunin after 82 minutes.

Real came up short once more in pre-season just two days after losing 1-0 to rivals Barcelona in Las Vegas.
