Eden Hazard showed glimpses of his old self in the away match against Celtic.
Replacing Karim Benzema in the first half, the Real Madrid forward went on to score a goal and create another. Despite having to play in an unusual position - as a false nine - the Belgian did a solid job. The fans couldn't have been more pleased about it.
WolfRMFC: "THIS MAKES ME HAPPY MAN HE DESERVES THIS."
IbaiLlanos: "EDEN MICHAEL HAZARD HAS RISEN FROM THE DEAD."
Ultra_Suristic: "As someone with ZERO expectations for Hazard... every little bit like this is a pleasant surprise :)"
ArminCFC_: "For once I’m really satisfied with this Hazard performance man, he finally quit his back passing to teammates BS and took matters in his own hands. Precise and involved, like it’s supposed to be. Good movement too, even though it wasn’t always spotted. We move."
carlosrma: "I can’t lie, as much as Hazard has been a big flop, I’m happy to see some luck go his way for once."
CFCMod_: "Eden Hazard came on to give a pre assist, gave an assist and scored a goal in the Champions League, this is why you play him. Form is temporary, class is permanent."
Carlo Ancelotti promised to give Hazard more minutes this season. The Belgian is not in contention to start the next game against Mallorca in case Karim Benzema doesn't recover in time.
