That pass from Luka Modric for Rodrygo's goal is one of the best I've ever seen. And I've seen a lot of passes.
The 36-year-old midfielder, who continues to age like a fine wine, was quiet for large spells during Tuesday night's Champions League clash against Chelsea but he sparked into life with one of the most outrageous 'outside of the boot' passes in recent memory.
Sit back and just admire greatness. This should be exhibited in the Louvre.
That ball from Modric! 😱

That might be the single greatest assist I’ve ever seen, Modric is something else

That Modric is assist is an absolute disgrace by the way. Stupidly good technique.

It has been a quite remarkable second leg at the Bernabeu.
Thomas Tuchel's side managed to claw it back to 3-3 on aggregate thanks to goals from Mason Mount and Antonio Rudiger before Timo Werner sat down the Madrid defence to put the Blues ahead.
But it was that moment of brilliance from Modric and a great finish from Rodrygo that sent the game to extra-time.
Here are all the goals if you need catch up.
That's the perfect start for Chelsea! 🔥

A fortunate way through for Mason Mount, but there was nothing fortunate about the finish... 🎯
