After three fingers in the air mimicking a third star, Karim Benzema was much sharper just before the World Cup final. Less than 3 hours into the match between Argentina and France this Sunday, the Ballon d’Or released a big poster of the final, which was mostly attended by Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé, along with other World Cup trophies. “It’s time … All together,” adds the French striker with a small white heart.

“Vamonos (Come on, come on, Blues),” also notes Karim Benzema, who will become world champion if he defeats Argentina and the third Blues star. A post to which the official account of the French national team responded with fire emoticons. Note that the striker of Real Madrid with 62.3 million followers on Instagram decided to publish exactly the same photo as his former coach Zinedine Zidane. A few days ago, KB9 shared a photo of the 1998 world champion, also absent from the Doha final, taken during the Ballon d’Or ceremony.
In recent days, Karim Benzema has multiplied the cryptic posts on Instagram, in stories or in photos. On Saturday, he posted a selfie with the caption “I’m not interested” at the height of the debate about his coming to Doha for the match. He also shared the story of one of his friends taking a photo with him in front of the Ballon d’Or: “We’ve already won… THE END.” He posted a very short video this Saturday night where we can see him raising three fingers, a reference to a potential Blues third star. The only clear support for the Blues from Benzema came after a quarter won against England. “Come on guys, 2 more games, we’re almost done…Behind you…Vamonos. “This time, Benzema is determined thoroughly.
