Benzema delighted to prove Real Madrid matchwinner

Karim Benzema was delighted to prove Real Madrid's matchwinner in their Champions League win over Liverpool.

Benzema's 27th-minute goal was enough to earn them a 1-0 victory in Group B.

"The team is at its peak and we will continue to enjoy ourselves like we did today. We created a lot of chances and we are all attacking and defending together."

"I really like the Champions League, it is a competition I score a lot of goals in. I'm not sure if I'm at my peak but I feel 100% and am full of confidence."

"We're all at ease with Ancelotti. He gives us a lot of confidence. Cristiano Ronaldo is the best player in the world so if he doesn't score it doesn't matter. We have a game on Saturday and I'm sure he'll get on the scoresheet then."
