An eternal duel! While Luka Modric
is about to continue his career at AC Milanthe Croatian midfielder, long pillar of Real Madrid, was not forgotten by FC Barcelona, his great historic rival. With 38 clasicos played in the Madrid jersey, Modric marked this rivalry by its performance and some decisive moments.
During the friendly match between FC Barcelona and FC Seoul, won 7-3 by the Catalans, the official Barça channel took the opportunity to slide a spade against the Croatian, now a Rossoneri player. Albert Ortega, Spanish journalist, relayed on X the ironic remark of one of the commentators: “We did not carry out the tribute to Luka Modric. His latest major service will have been the pass in Koundé in the final of the Copa del Rey. Since here, we have wanted to show our gratitude. »»
This comment refers to Modric's bad recovery during the King Cup final on April 26. This led to the decisive goal of Jules Koundé, offering 3-2 victory at Barça in overtime. An error that has marked the spirits and is now mocked by Catalan supporters.
Madrilenians are asking for apology
This humor has not passed to Madrid supporters, who denounce a lack of respect for a legend from the club. On social networks, several fans are demanding immediate apology, recalling that Modric has never lacked respect at Barça and highlighting his exceptional record, including his multiple champions leagues.
Some go further, accusing the Catalan club of disrespect and loss of class, even calling it as “Corrupted”. For them, this controversy goes beyond the sports framework and tarnishes the historical rivalry between these two giants of Spanish football.
