Karim Benzema: 'France can defeat Spain in Madrid'

Benzema: 'Spain are not unbeatable'

France international striker Karim Benzema has insisted that Spain are not unbeatable.

The two sides will face each other in a 2014 World Cup qualifier at the Vicente Calderon in Madrid on Tuesday.

"They are the best team in the world - they've won everything there is to win," said Benzema.

"I play with a lot of international players at [Real] Madrid, so I know what quality is.

"Having said that, I don't think they are unbeatable, this is not mission impossible. It's still 11 against 11."

Both Spain and France have won their opening two qualifiers in Group I.
