We are counting down to the grand final of the Champions League in between Real i Liverpool which will take place this Saturday at 9pm at the Stade de France.
The Reds were left without an English title in the exciting last round of the Premiership, and the Kings, on the other hand, secured a new La Liga title four rounds before the end. It can be concluded that the psychological advantage is on the side of Madrid, whose camp was visited by a former football player, and today the host, Steve McManaman, on the eve of a great spectacle.
– Until when will I play? Until the age of 50, like Kazuyoshi Miura – he said Luka Modric and made everyone laugh. He was even a little deceived! The legendary Japanese, who also wore the jersey of Zagreb’s Dinamo, is still playing, at the age of 56!
– There are no favorites in the final. Liverpool are a great team, they had a great season. We beat several big teams, PSG, Chelsea and City and all those teams were the favorites against us, so they didn’t beat us – Modrić concluded.
While football genius Modrić has already won four Champions Leagues, some of his teammates have not yet put their hands around the ‘clumsy cup’. One of them is a grateful midfielder Federico Valverde who arrived at the Santiago Bernabeu in the summer of 2018, just after Real last won the Champions League, right through Liverpool.
– It is a unique trophy for every footballer in the world. I am ready to sacrifice a lot for the trophy, except for my son, and maybe even my own wife – said the smiling Uruguayan, and his wife Mina Bonino did not wait long for an answer:
“I would also sacrifice him for River Plate to win the Copa Libertadores once again,” she replied on Twitter.
