The Frenchman doubled his tally 12 minutes later after a quite incredible assist from Rodrygo.

Samu Costa tried to barge Rodrygo off the ball inside the box but the Brazilian showed good strength to maintain possession.

The Brazilian proceeded to completely bamboozle his opponent on the byline with a terrific skill.

The 22-year-old then got his head up then laid the ball back to Benzema, who made no mistake from roughly eight yards out.

It was a sensational assist from Rodrygo and you can view it below...

Chants of 'Rodrygo' rang around the Bernabeu after his assist and no wonder why. It was a special piece of skill.

Benzema completed his hat-trick just before half-time.

Los Blancos were given a spot-kick when Largie Ramazani tripped up Lucas Vazquez inside the box.

Benzema took responsibility and he made no mistake as he sent Fernando Martínez the wrong way.

That was Benzema's third hat-trick this month, having also bagged a trio of goals against Real Valladolid and Barcelona.

Rodrygo makes it 4-1 with beauty

Lazoro's goal meant Real Madrid led 3-1 at the break.

Rodrygo got on the scoresheet and re-established his side's three-goal advantage just after half-time.

The winger picked up the ball just outside of the box, turned and then unleashed a venemous strike which found the top corner.

Lucas Robertone pulled one back for the away side in the 61st minute but there were no further goals as Real secured all three points.

Rodrygo was subbed off in the 72nd minute as he made way for Marco Asensio.
