Karim Benzema made an unflattering comment about fellow forward Olivier Giroud, comparing himself to a Formula One car and his former France teammate to a go-kart.
Benzema has nearly 250 goals for Real Madrid and won four Champions League titles. He was holding a live chat session on his Instagram account on Sunday when someone asked him if Giroud, who has more than 200 goals in his entire professional career and won four FA Cups, was better than him.
"I'm going to respond to you and all of those who are watching, it won't take long. It won't take long, guys," Benzema replied.
"You can't confuse F1 with karting ... and I'm being kind."
"People just remembered when I said I was F1 and he was karting. That's what I think."
"That's the way it is."
