Luka Modric surprises everyone with his statement after the embarrassing defeat to Barcelona

Sunday night will be one to remember for Real Madrid as they suffered a 5-2 defeat to arch-rivals Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final.

'Los Blancos' did not look the best team on the pitch at any point during this match and they were always under the most pressure.

Apart from that brief period of lead that was created after Kylian Mbappe's goal, they were otherwise in pursuit of Barcelona for most of the match.


Luka Modric was the only Real Madrid player who faced reporters after the defeat, where he shared his opinion on the team's performance.

"It is a difficult loss. We have to be together, be a team and get out of this situation, just like we did after losing to them in La Liga."

"I hope we will react after this difficult loss because we did not think we would lose in this way," Modric said initially.

The Croatian then spoke about how important it is for the team to recover from this night ahead of the tough games to come, especially in midweek in the Copa Del Rey.

"It's good that the Cup match is coming soon and we don't have much time to regret. If we have to choose a final to lose, we prefer to lose this one."

"We didn't play a good game, Barcelona was better and we have to congratulate them. We have to move forward because we had a good dynamic in La Liga", he concluded./Telegraph/
