Luka Modric has compared the failure of Croatia to that of Real Madrid before the semi-final match of his national team against Argentina
The 37-year-old midfielder has led his national team to their second consecutive World Cup semi-final after Croatia knocked out World Cup favorites Brazil on penalties. He is also happy to face former club rival Lionel Messi and is prepared to overcome this obstacle in the semi-finals to reach the final again.
“You can say that we have the same DNA as Real Madrid, because we play until the end and we don’t give up,” Modric told El Chiringuito.
“I want to play another big semi-final against a big team, that’s what I want, not against one player. Of course, Leo is very big, he is their best player and we will have a lot of difficulties to stop him, but we are prepared to give it our all. I hope it will be enough to go to the finals”, said the Croatian captain about the confrontation with Messi and his team for “Espanola” television.
