Why do you like him?

Modric, who beat Inter and ushered in his 100th Champions League match, is the most dazzling star. He has the highest number of passes, passes and success rates in the game, and is well-deserved. But his dazzling was not limited to the UEFA Technical Committee "controlled the game in the middle of the match", but also in the outbreak of conflict between the two sides, the Croats rushed to Real Madrid player Vidal, to avoid further deterioration, it is worth mentioning that a few years ago, Inter tried to operate Modric to join Inter, and made a promise that "will never say no to him".

Not fading has always been Modric's specialty in the strong dialogue, and he won the best of the game in the second leg of the dialogue with Inter, and he was replaced in the first leg in September, he won the applause at the Meacha Stadium. even if love is not allowed, respect is always the purest emotional release. Perhaps, Atletico Madrid fans will not be so magnanimous, after all, seven years ago Ramos created the "9248 miracle" behind, from Modric's corner kick, and this time in the Madrid derby, the Galaxy battleship with the last laugh once again relied on Modric's performance.

Without goals and assists, how did Modric conquer his opponents? With 10 long passes, 7 successes, 5 dribbles, 4 successes, 13 ground confrontations and 8 successes, he enjoyed bursts of applause from the Bernabeu fans after the game, even though his performance of losing the ball nine times was far from perfect. But Modric deserves the evaluation. After all, starting six times in 16 days in a row is an extreme physical and mental test for any 36-year-old veteran. No wonder Vinicius believes that Modric is his own age. No wonder Mourinho said bluntly this summer: "if in a few years when Modric announced his retirement, then people who like football will be very sad."

The match against Inter and Atletico Madrid is just a timely display of Modric's deep still water. He does not need to interpret his personal value with goals and assists, as the Marca newspaper described it: "Modric taught us how to control the rhythm of the game." But even so, the Croat will fight a little. For example, he is the well-deserved NO.1 of all La Liga midfielders who has contributed five assists this season. Who knows, at least coach Carlo Ancelotti has actively promoted Modric's contract renewal plan, not because of the scene that "there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure". But the Italian coach, who is a tactician, does not want to easily lose a fighter who is not fettered by the years.

Even though Florentino was extremely harsh on the veteran's contract renewal and the forced departure of some exquisite Madrists in the past made fans burst into tears, Modric had the opportunity to be an exception, not entirely because he voluntarily reduced his salary and stayed until he retired, but in the words of Lafayette, the Croat reached another height: "inside and outside the stadium." No one can better symbolize the value of Real Madrid than Modric, he is ushering in an era. He won everything with us and Real Madrid are proud to have him. " Perhaps, this is a polite remark in front of the media, but in the eyes of the outside world, Real Madrid has not found a real replacement, and even if it does, it does not guarantee that Croats have been running on the Bernabeu lawn for nearly 10 years. the evergreen trait itself is a rarity.

Every fan probably knows that Modric has experienced the ravages and baptism of the war, his father was forced to join the army, his grandfather died, and he was homeless all the way, living in a shelter for seven years, without football, he may just be a weightless soul living in the shadow of war, so Modric has always been grateful for knowing football, which is the only way to cure his childhood misfortune. Although he now has Golden Globes, trophies, large and small trophies, and a happy family, the significance of his growth is not limited to the evaluation of "Cruyff of Croatia".

You see, with a height of 1.72 meters and a weight of 66 kilograms, it seems fragile, but it carries Croatia's happiness in the 2018 World Cup, teaches those who have fallen down to be humiliated and humiliated, and inspires themselves to be on the road to winning. Remember that Modric was mercilessly regarded as the biggest parallel import by the Western media in his first season in La Liga? However, he has been suspected more than once whether he has a new tomorrow, the difference is that when he was young, he only wanted to escape the war, when happiness was a luxury, and before he became famous, he was worried that his small physique was not suitable for going on a rampage in Europe's top league. at that time, having a ball to play was a sense of satisfaction, but Modric, who became famous, not only covered the past and criticism, but also proved that it was no accident that there was a flood of praise and fighting spirit.

"he always wants to beat young people on the training ground and takes training very seriously, just like a real game." Similar comments have been circulating between the Croatian national team and Real Madrid, and it is not surprising that Modric, who has no differential treatment, has become a role model and idol. In the twinkling of an eye, the teenager herding sheep in the hills has become the representative of the old and strong.

From Zadar to Dinamo Zagreb, and from Tottenham to Real Madrid, fans were fortunate to appreciate Modric's elegant style and upward strength, so much so that when Tottenham rented back Bell last year, many celebrities and fans had expected Modric to take a step back. But on the other hand, the fragile Bell and the stubborn Modric have become the opposites of the two extremes, and it is clear that Real Madrid will not use this as a price to achieve the close cooperation of Tottenham in the past. And most likely will continue to write each other's stories.

"Modric has the talent to bring beauty to the world, making sports a place of competition rather than disputes." Maybe that's what people really like about Modridge. There is a fundamental difference between knowing how to go and being on the road, and Croats are always on the road.
