Picture of Karim Benzema donning a gold bandage could become one of the most iconic football images of recent years.
Benzema took home the Ballon d’Or for the first time in his career after a truly magnificent year for Real Madrid. His winning goals in the round of 16, quarter-finals, and semi-finals of the Champions League helped drag Carlo Ancelotti’s side to their 14th triumph in the old competition.
