Rafael Benitez praises Madrid attacking trident of Ronaldo, Benzema, Bale

Rafael Benitez heaps praise on Madrid's attacking trident of Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale, after each player scored in the Galacticos' win over Getafe.

Real Madrid manager Rafael Benitez has lavished praised upon the team's attacking trio of Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale.

Each player scored in Madrid's 4-1 rout of Getafe including a brace from Benzema, who has been embroiled in controversy recently over his alleged involvement in a sex tape blackmail scandal revolving around France international Mathieu Valbuena.

Benitez was effusive in his praise of Madrid's attacking talent, in particular the France forward's contribution.

"To get the three points playing very well in the first half means that these players, who we know are very important, once they get up to speed can cause a lot of damage to any defence," the Galacticos boss told reporters.

"The fact the three attackers all scored and collaborated a lot with the team in defence and attack I think means all three should be satisfied. It is important that they play well, score goals and that will be the key to maintaining their confidence.

"The fact Benzema scored those two goals and contributed so much to the team going forward reinforces more what I have said before that he is a very important player for us and makes those around him play better."

Benitez's side remain in third position in La Liga following the victory.
