With the win, France officially qualified for the 2022 World Cup.

After the game, Real Madrid’s Benzema spoke about his performance, as well as the chemistry he and Mbappe have together.

“Mbappé and I played very well together,” Benzema said after the rout. “I already said it in other games, we are compatible. Today we were able to score both. We have fun together, we are decisive, and we help the team by playing collectively.”

There does seem to be a certain chemsitry on and off the field between Benzema and Mbappe which has Madridista’s excited for given that Mbappe is likely to sign for Los Blancos in the coming months.
