Karim Benzema impressed by spirit in France squad

Benzema happy with team spirit

Karim Benzema has revealed how the current mood in the France squad is helping them find form following the 5-2 thrashing of Switzerland on Friday evening.

The 26-year-old, who found the net in their second Group E fixture, believes that France, who are three points clear of Ecuador and Switzerland, are benefiting from a strong team spirit in Brazil.

"I think we all had a good game," Benzema told beIN Sport.

"We are all doing well. We continued what we did against Honduras. We played as a team, we play together and there are no emotions.

"It's good to have a team like that. Personally, I'm doing well. I'm profiting a lot. That two goals I've had disallowed now, but it doesn't matter."

France can secure top spot in the group with a draw against Ecuador on Wednesday.
