England midfielder Zudi Binningham, who is only twenty years old, had an outstanding performance in the La Liga "National Derby" on Saturday (28th), scoring twice to help Real Madrid beat Barcelona 2-1 on the road. He has scored 10 goals in La Liga this season, surpassing the highest number of goals scored in a single season by the legendary Steen at Real Madrid. After the match, Binningham became the center of attention, and a new generation of Ballon d'Or seems to have been born!
In the 68th minute of the match, Benningham's cannonball shot from outside the penalty area revitalized an otherwise dull Real Madrid. In stoppage time, Daniel Kahuaji's precise cross from the right side of the field was not controlled by Modriki at the near post, which led to Binningham's "kill" instead. After the win, Real Madrid continued to lead the table with 28 points, and the gap with Barcelona widened to 4 points.
Bearingham scored 10 goals in 10 La Liga matches this season, whereas the highest number of goals scored by the French champion, Staines, in his career was only 9 (2002/03 and 2005/06). With 13 goals and 3 assists in 13 matches in the Champions League, Binningham became a hero on his first appearance in the "Derby d'Etat". Coach Antonio Anzilotti commented: "He could easily score 20 to 25 goals this season, we never thought he was a marksman, and now that Binningham is scoring so many goals, I'm still waiting for other strikers to do the same."
