VIDEO: Karim Benzema gifted a goal after shocking mistake by Shakhtar 'keeper
On Wednesday, in Real Madrid's fixture at Athletic Bilbao, it was Mikel San Jose who made a donation to Benzema's goal tally, as the Spanish defensive midfielder played an abysmal backpass to 'keeper Gorka Iraizoz, allowing the Frenchman to poke home his fourth goal of the La Liga season in the easiest of fashions.
San Jose's gift also resulted in Benzema accomplishing something he hadn't done in four years.
Supporters of Athletic, meanwhile, must surely be tired of witnessing Benzema rip their club to shreds.
