Records assist in loss Benedetto took a shot and assisted a goal in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Real Madrid.

Impact Benedetto was a late substitute on Saturday but he provided a nice pass for Pere Milla's consolation goal against Real Madrid, his first assist of the season. The veteran has been in and out of Elche's starting lineup in spurts this year, but he has two goals and an assist in his last five La Liga appearances, and he should continue to get minutes off the bench at the very least.

Quiet off bench Benedetto failed to take a shot in 27 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 1-0 loss to Deportivo Alaves.

Impact Benedetto had scored in two of his previous three appearances before this game and came close if it weren't for a goal chalked off by VAR. He's still in solid enough form to be considered an underdog target against Real Madrid, which rank among the stronger defenses in the league.

Comes off bench in loss Benedetto put one shot on target in 27 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Atletico Madrid.

Impact Benedetto did something only Pere MIlla was able to do Sunday and that's put a shot on target. For him to do it in his debut is a good start for Benedetto, though everything will come down to if he can actually make an impact as a starter as well. Up next is a visit from Sevilla.

Joins Elche on loan Benedetto was loaned to Elche on a season-long deal with an option to buy from Marseille.

Impact Benedetto seems like the first striker brought in to this club with a proper pedigree, but he's coming off a tough year with just five goals and three assists from 32 appearances. Should he be the answer to Elche's lack of consistency at striker, there's no reason not to expect him to play regularly and get help from the likes of Josan Fernandez and Fidel.

Takes one shot in finale Benedetto had one shot (off target) and two dribbles in Sunday's 1-1 draw to Metz.

Impact Benedetto surprisingly picked up his first start since February in the finale but was yet again fairly quiet and didn't impress much in a poor campaign for him. He started the season a bit better though and managed to rack up five goals and three assists in 32 league appearances (19 starts) while failing to score or assist in six UCL appearances (three starts).
