On Saturday, Luka Modric played his last home game for Real Madrid as the veteran midfielder departs the Spanish club. Marca relayed his comments regarding the player’s best moment at Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, which came at the expense of PSG.
“What moments or matches will you never forget?” he was asked.
“Wow… Just at the Bernabéu or in general?” Modric replied with a laugh. “At the Bernabéu… whew. There were so many incredible matches. I don’t know what to tell you. For me, that second-to-last Champions League run, with the comebacks against Paris, Chelsea, City…”
“If I have to pick just one, just one… it’s Paris Saint-Germain. Because I said: ‘If we win this match, we’re going to win the Champions League.’ And that’s exactly what happened. So if I have to choose one, even though it’s really hard, I choose that match.”
