Karim Benzema scored another fantastic goal for France against Denmark in their Nations League match on Friday evening.

He weaved through Denmark's defence to finish off a brilliant team goal for Les Bleus in the 51st minute.

Benzema cut in from the right and playing a one-two with Christopher Nkunku before dribbling past another couple of Danish defenders and and calmly finishing past Kasper Schmeichel.

The goal gave France a 1-0 second-half advantage.

That was his 50th goal for both club and country in the 2021/22 season.

Sports Brief earlier reported that France began their UEFA Nations League title defence on a losing note as Denmark stunned them in Paris in a match played on Friday night.

Karim Benzema sent football into a frenzy with a well-taken goal against Denmark in the UEFA Nations League. Benzema danced through the Danish defence, leaving defenders in his wake, to score a superb solo goal in the 51st minute.

That goal was however in vain as Andreas Cornelius came off the bench to score twice and condemn the defending World Cup champions to a 2-1 defeat at home.
