00:07Now we do get the farewell to Luka Modric and listen to the noise inside this stadium.
00:16It is adios to one of the greats in the history of Real Madrid.
00:23Six league titles, Champions League titles, Spanish Super Cup up, Copa del Rey, 28 majors and regarded as the best in the world when he led Croatia to the World Cup final.
00:44And still going strong as he approaches his 40th birthday.
00:49You don't see that for anybody, do you? A guard of honour embraces Luka Modric as he says farewell to the Bernabeu.
01:01And he deserves it. What a player he's been for Real Madrid, for Croatia.
01:08Before that, Tottenham Hotspur.
01:12He's the daddy, as those kids would say.
01:14His ability to receive the ball, his ability to find a pass, the way he can control a game, the way he can open up defences.
01:28He's been the perfect midfielder and he played alongside that man for many a season.
01:33Well, Tony Kroos retired early, didn't he?
01:39Part of the Royal Trident with Casemiro.
01:43Of course, he's still playing for Manchester United.
01:46And how fitting to see Tony Kroos down there to embrace Luka Modric.
01:51There is still a farewell tour.
01:57Hope to see him in Miami, Charlotte, Philadelphia.
02:04And maybe in the games, if, when, Real Madrid progress in the Club World Cup in June and July.
02:13But it's goodbye to Madrid for one of the greats.
02:16And he's put in a shift this season, you know.
02:24He's played in 58 of the 62 games.
02:29Well, I think he's had more of an impact this season than he did last.
02:33You know, last season he just came on for the odd game.
02:35He played a lot towards the end when they'd already won the title.
02:39But Ancelotti's shown a lot of faith in him this year.
02:42His fitness levels have been good.
02:43You keep expecting him to be exposed with a lack of pace or people to run off the back of him.
