Karim Benzema is the talk of the Champions League after his dominant performance against PSG on Wednesday saw Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and the rest of the Parisian squad crashing out of the competition. Benzema scored a second-half hat trick against PSG to lift Los Blancos into the next stage of the competition, and in doing so, set social media alight. Fans couldn't contain themselves as they bore witness to Benzema's masterclass, as it was truly a historic performance from the Real Madrid striker.

PSG will be riding home in shame after their disappointing defeat, and players might not want to check social media for a while, because fans are not holding back with their merciless roasting of the squad.

One reason folks are so riled up about PSG's loss is that they not only lost the game but the club is set to watch Kylian Mbappe leave on a free transfer. They rejected as much as $200 million for Mbappe this summer and failed to achieve their goal with him in the mix in 2022.

A true disaster for PSG, who are taking countless L's at the hands of Real Madrid here.

Sergio Ramos was probably halfway down the touchline before realizing he was celebrating his own team's loss.

Old habits die hard.

Let's not pretend Real Madrid isn't one of the richest clubs in the world, but it was still a beautiful sight to see PSG crash and burn out of the tournament.

Real Madrid was so fired up after their game-clinching goal, they celebrated with anything and everything in their vicinity.

This folding chair will go down in club history, thanks to Eder Militao.

Is there a man more beloved in the entire country of Spain than Karim Benzema right about now?

Benzema is on top of the world right now, having single-handedly put PSG in its grave and sent Real Madrid into the next round of the Champions League.
