Real Madrid all-time scorers: Karim Benzema overtakes Raul in Real Madrid’s all-time goalscoring charts

Who is Real Madrid’s all-time highest scorer?

Karim Benzema became Real Madrid’s outright second-highest goalscorer as he overtook Raul by netting in the Super Cup. Benzema tied level in second place on the club’s list of scorers back in May, when he equalled Los Blancos great Raul on 323 goals with a header in a 6-0 rout of Levante.

He is now alone in second, on 324, after netting Madrid’s second against Europa League winners Eintracht Frankfurt on Wednesday in Helsinki.

With David Alaba having put Madrid ahead in the first half, Benzema made it 2-0 in the 65th minute as he struck up with Vinicius Junior for a familiar combination.

Vinicius assisted Benzema 10 times last season, and the Brazil winger’s cross from the left side of the area presented Madrid’s new club captain with the chance to side-foot home a first-time finish that crept through Kevin Trapp.

Only Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored a remarkable 450 goals during his nine-year spell at Santiago Bernabeu between 2009 and 2018, stands ahead of Benzema, though it would seem unlikely the 34-year-old France striker will go on to match that record.

Carlo Ancelotti becomes first manager to win FOUR European Cup/Champions League titles

Ancelotti became the first coach to win four European Cup/Champions League titles with May’s hard-fought final win over Liverpool, and his latest success saw him become the Super Cup’s most decorated boss.

His fourth triumph in the competition (having also won with Milan in 2003 and 2007 and Madrid in 2014) saw him move one clear of Pep Guardiola.
