The Real Madrid and Luka Modric have agreed to the extension of the contract for the Croatian midfielder until 30 June 2022, the club said in a statement.

 


Modric, whose contract ended on June 30, signed the renewal in the Valdebebas sports city accompanied by the president, Florentino Pérez, who gave him a shirt with his name and the number 2022. The 35-year-old Zadar player came to Real Madrid from Tottenham England in the 2012-13 seasons, for which he will complete ten campaigns as a white player.

 

Runner-up in the world with Croatia at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, in these years he has become one of the most valuable players of the team and the most outstanding internationally, so much so that he received The Best FIFA award of that year ahead of the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo and the French Antoine Griezmann.

With Neymar and Mbappe, PSG will play its first Champions League final

PSG reached the final of the Champions League for the first time in its fifty years of history, after beating German RB Leipzig 3-0 this Tuesday in Lisbon, in the first semifinal of the top European tournament.

 

The Brazilian Marquinhos (minute 13), the Argentine Ángel Di María (42), and the Spanish Juan Bernat (56) signed the many Parisians. Di María was also the author of the assistance in the goals of his teammates.

 

Paris Saint-Germain will meet in Sunday's final at the Estadio da Luz in the Portuguese capital with the winner of the second semi-final, another Franco-German duel, which will take place on Wednesday between Lyon and Bayern Munich.

 

It had been twenty-five years since PSG had played a semifinal of the highest European tournament and then Milan blocked their way to the final. This time he broke the limit of the penultimate round and is already one step away from lifting the 'Orejona', the great obsession of its Qatari owners.

 

After suffering the quarterfinals against Atalanta (2-1), in which PSG had to come back with two goals in injury time, the semifinal match was much calmer.

 

Striker Kylian Mbappé, who played the last half-hour against the Italians, started for the first time after his ankle injury at the end of last month and Di María, absent in the quarterfinals due to suspension, returned to the team in the best way with his goal and his two assists.

 

For its part, RB Leipzig, the executioner in the round of 16 of the current European runner-up Tottenham and the quarterfinals of Atlético de Madrid, awakens from his dream. He will be left with the consolation of having lived the best European season of his barely eleven years of life.

Ligue 1 Footballers Don't Want to Play Again

A survey by the Footballers Union, which represents 94% of First and Second players, reveals that they do not want to take risks. This is bad news for French football. The Ligue 1 and Ligue 2 players made it clear what their point of view is with regard to returning to the field of play: not returning.

La Gazzetta dello Sport reported that the National Union of Professional Footballers (UNFP), a French union of 94% of First and Second players, surveyed the possibility of playing again, with results that reflect the fear of the reluctant squads to resume activity for fear of the coronavirus.

The reason is that the footballers are not willing to return without the adequate conditions of sanitary security that prevents infections. In addition, the fact of having to play behind closed doors is also not a dish of good taste for the players, something that will have to be given yes or yes for security measures. 80% of respondents prefer that the current leaderboard be taken as a reference and that everything stay that way, before the season is ‘null’.

For now, the Ligue 1 plan to return to the competition will be linked to the end of confinement in France, which theoretically has to be on May 11, as Emmanuel Macron said.

Today's Football Matches and Other Sports

There have running many football tournament at this time. English Premier League is one of them. This English Premier League is very popular in worldwide. Man City, Arsenal, Man Utd, Liverpool, Chelsea team are especially popular in EPL.

Spanish Primera Division is another popular tournament at this time. Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Malaga, Valencia, Real Sociedad etc are most favorite team in Spanish Primera Division. This football tournament is also known as La Liga.

Now, every day a different championship game is played. When we see a light in the impenetrable jungle is because there is a football field. My experience so far shows that it is true. Playing football here is another story, because physically there is no competition. The importance of the sport is reflected in the clothes. In a rural area in the middle of the jungle takes the shirt is more of a football team.

Italian Serie A is also top tournament at this time. In Serie A there have many popular team faces each other. Inter Milan, Juventus, Roma, Atalanta, Bologna, AC Milan, Napoli, Sampdoria etc is very attractive in this Italian Serie A.

French Ligue 1 is the football tournament for French people. PSG, Marseille, Lille, Sochaux, Lyon, Montpellier atc is the best team in French Ligue 1.

Champions League matches are critical events during the year. I do not know the figures for worldwide audience of the Olympics, but I think nothing generates more global expectation that a World Cup football. I've been enjoying a credit of Real Madrid for a few seasons.

For this match Leonardo Jardim is deprived of some players. Thus, Radamel Falcao, Thomas Lemar, Kylian Mbappe and Wagner Love are injured and will be in the stands for this first big Ligue 1.

It was already one of the first posters of last season. The meeting took place from the 4th day and coincided with the first appearance of Di Maria in the Paris jersey. She also had already sealed the fate of the 2015-2016 championship with a 3-0 landslide victory for the capital club on one of the principality.

Monaco-PSG opens again the ball of shock Ligue 1 this season, the two teams meeting starting this 3rd day of Ligue 1. Last year, the Monegasques were demolished at the Stade Louis-II leg, but then they were the last to win at Parc des princes on 20 March 2016.

A beautiful contrast of styles awaits us tonight. On one side, AS Monaco has already played six games and showed strength in defense. On the other, Paris proves attractive in the collective entertainment, even if it still unrealistic to conclude.
