Toni Kroos Produces Nutmeg Assist for Karim Benzema in FIFA Club World Cup

Karim Benzema opened the scoring for Real Madrid in their Club World Cup semi-final against Club America on Wednesday, thanks in no small part to a cheeky assist from Toni Kroos.

The Germany international received possession from Luka Modric after some patient buildup from his team-mates, and while his first touch appeared a little loose, he made up for it by slotting the ball through an opponent's legs and into the path of Benzema.

The Frenchman made no mistake with the outside of his boot from close range, firing Los Blancos into a half-time lead in Yokohama, Japan.
