Benzema not only scored 16 goals in the match but also contributed 11 assists to his teammates.&nbsp;

3.Alfredo Di Stefano&nbsp;

Di Stefano was the player who scored the most El Clasico goals in the 20th century, but he has since been overtaken. He scored 18 goals against Barcelona and is considered by many as the greatest player in Real Madrid history.&nbsp;
