Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema was delighted with his brace in victory at Athletic Bilbao.

Benzema admits he enjoyed the atmosphere at San Mames.

He said, "We put on a good display against tough opposition. We conceded but we scored two and we take all three points. We had to dig in, but that's what the best teams can do. It was a great goal but the most important thing is how it gave us the confidence to go after the second.

“I like this kind of football. A great stadium like this one makes me very happy. I'm proud of today's win because Athletic are a very tough side and it's great to pick up a win here.

“I'm going to try and keep going and scoring more goals. I'm very proud of my numbers and I'm closing in on my 300th goal for the club. It's been a strong end to the year. We have to rest up now because we've still got lots of work to do."
