November 14, 2022: The two meet again for the first semi-final of the Qatar World Cup at Lusail Stadium. 16 years of football have passed in this period. The captain’s armband shines on the left hand of both. 2 stars who went from being poster boys to rock cameo roles to the top of a nation. If Messi is the soul of Argentina, Modric is the lifeblood of Croatia. For football fans in the small country of Croatia with a population of just 4 million, it’s about as big as Messi. 2 names that played in the same era, in El Clásico star wars with Barcelona and Real Madrid; Messi and Modric. Lucky who was able to see the handshake and embrace of the two before the kick-off of the World Cup semi-finals. Because there may never be another moment like this in world football.
Only one Modric; What came up to Messi for Croatia!
