The Croatian recorded a wonderful display at the Madrid link, which was also reflected in the numbers: 100% success in “one on one”, 88% accuracy in dedication, 69 dedications – 12 of them in the last third, 4 successful tackles, 2 kicks to goal, 3 wide dedications – and assist One large, to the other gate. The wonderful move in which Modric crossed the halfway line, got back and sent in towards Benzema – was the final stamp on the mighty evening spent on the Croatian.
“He’s world class,” Franco Barzi said of him at the end of his past relationship. In “Marca” they defined him: “One of the leaders of the link in Real, shows football, beauty and commitment. A historic footballer.” Despite his advanced age, the Croatian midfielder has proven that he has not miraculously escaped – on the way, perhaps, to another big season in his career.
