Karim Benzema impressed by spirit in France squad

Karim Benzema believes that France are benefiting from a strong team spirit at the World Cup.

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.
