PARIS (Reuters) - Karim Benzema's recall to the France squad for the European Championship undoubtedly adds to the world champions' already impressive firepower, although the Real Madrid forward has yet to make his mark with the national team.
While his 30 goals in all competitions for Real this season speak volumes, Benzema has rarely shone with Les Bleus in 81 games, notably scoring only two goals across two major competitions at Euro 2012 and the 2014 World Cup. He had netted 32 and 24 goals respectively for Real in those seasons.
