General comments
He takes advantage of the bad performances of Benzema to win the front attack of real but he is a very good striker fast, technical and always in good opportunities.

He is not an undisputed striker in his club but has shown regularity since his arrival at Real Madrid.

He is not his greatest asset, he rarely scores the head.
Long range striking
He rarely shoots and scores outside of the box.
Dribble
Very comfortable, he is able to eliminate many opponents before speeding toward goal.

His asks for the ball are intelligent, very often available in the back of the defense with his speed.
