He belittled El Tri, now Modric recognizes Mexico's best for his soccer

Luka Modric is living one of the sweetest moments of his career at Real Madrid. The Croatian is on the eve of facing a new World Cup and perhaps his last as captain of the Croatian national team. The last World Cup Golden Ball winner stood out in a big way, but during a match against Mexico, his statements left much to be desired.

In the Brazil 2014 World Cup, Luka Modric, before facing the Mexican national team, assured that the match should not be so complicated and that having better players, he expects Croatia to triumph. However, the result was favorable for Mexico, who defeated the Europeans with a display of good soccer.

As a result of this situation, Modric already has a different concept of soccer in Mexico. Such is the case of a player with whom he shared and respects in broad strokes. It is precisely the player Javier Hernandez, an element that Luka confessed in an interview with MARCA, was one of the most professional and hard-working players with whom he shared.

How much time did Modric and Chicharito share?

Both elements were only able to coincide in one season during 2014 at Real Madrid when Hernandez was loaned to the Spanish team. However, it was enough time for Chicharito to earn the respect of Luka Modric on more than one occasion and for Modric to consider him a great striker.
