Veteran Luka Modric Outsmarts Pedri with Slick Move During El Clasico
During Sunday’s heated El Clasico, 39-year-old Luka Modric demonstrated his class with a deft maneuver that left Barcelona’s Pedri on the ground. In the 75th minute, as Pedri attempted to block his path, the experienced Real Madrid midfielder effortlessly sidestepped him and continued the play.
Fans were thrilled by the moment, flooding social media with praise:
- “Even at 40, Modric dominates Pedri. Love to see it.”
- “Straight into my veins.”
- “Let it be known—Modrić at 40 made Pedri eat grass.”
The move became a highlight despite Real Madrid trailing 2-4 at halftime, with emotions running high—especially for Kylian Mbappe, who looked visibly disheartened walking off the pitch.
