On Tuesday evening one of the most impressive Champions League series in recent years ended between the teams of Madrid's "Real" and "Chelsea". The meeting of these pairs was so special that at one point it seemed like "Real" were clear favorites to reach the semi-finals, later "Chelsea" incredibly came back into the series and seemed like favorites until they needed about 15 more minutes to triumph. However, in the end, the Madrid team triumphed in the quarterfinals, and once again, the mature as wine Luka Modrić contributed significantly to the victory. At the end of the second match, the Croatian made a great assist with the outer part of his foot to Rodrygo, who only had to equalize the series result. After the match, L. Modrić said: "I couldn't describe the match. We were dead. I can't say we played badly, but they had great chances. However, we never gave up. We are Madrid's "Real", we never give up. "Chelsea" is the strongest opponent we have ever played against," - Modrić expressed respect for the opponents after the match. "Atletico" or "City" in the next stage? We'll see, to win this tournament you have to beat everyone," - commented the 36-year-old Croatian, who was named the best player of the match.
