After a surprising 2-0 defeat against Liverpool at Anfield in the Champions League, Real Madrid's captain Luka Modrić took to the media to address the concerns swirling around the team's performance. With a resolute demeanor, he acknowledged, “We’re not used to losing,” but also reassured fans that the club is committed to improving in the remaining matches. Despite the disappointment, Modrić signaled that the team’s spirit is intact as they gear up to bounce back with more vigor. He noted, however, that the loss provided crucial lessons that needed to be learned quickly, especially as they push towards a title-clinching finish in La Liga.

The Croatian midfield maestro didn't pull any punches, specifically addressing Kylian Mbappé's performance during the match.

For fans curious about the French superstar’s contribution, Modrić remains optimistic, predicting a bright future for Mbappé at Madrid—he just needs to shake off the Liverpool rust.

Modrić also took a moment to remind everyone that the Champions League isn’t won right away; “You don’t win the Champions League now,” he stated, highlighting that every loss is a step towards learning and growing. The five-time Champions League winner emphasized that the road ahead still has plenty of potential for success, especially after their recent winning streak in La Liga. Despite the hiccup at Anfield, the atmosphere within the squad remains optimistic.

As the team refocuses on their next challenges, fans can take solace in Modrić's calm assurance that Real Madrid has been through tough times before and come out stronger. Having already secured multiple titles in European football, the road to recovery is familiar territory for this legendary club. Interestingly, Modrić himself has been with Real Madrid since 2012 and has amassed over 450 appearances, proving his long-standing commitment and contribution to the team. With three crucial matches left in the Champions League, all eyes will be on Modrić and his teammates as they aim to reclaim their dominance on the European stage!
