Luka Modric, who will leave Casa Blanca at the end of the season, scored the winning goal in the clash against Sevilla (1-0), Sunday evening at the Bernabéu.

Modric becomes the second top scorer in the history of Casa Blanca, at 38 years and 5 months, behind Ferenc Puskas and ahead of Alfredo Di Stefano. Two of Real Madrid’s greatest legends.
