ok, the first yellow i understood, then, at the end wtf? i didnt watch the whole match live, but in my highlights, what did carrick do?

Olympique Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas feels Karim Benzema is an outsider at Real Madrid.

Benzema returns to Lyon tonight for their Champions League clash.

"He's a bit isolated in the galaxy of Madrid.

He needs a more personal touch from the coach and with his teammates to gain confidence," said Aulas.

"It is difficult to do this in a galaxy of stars where there are personal relationships, but Karim needs this because he is young and comes from another environment, another country ...

I saw him in Madrid and he's living in a house alone, without furniture ..."
