Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric: How you beat Juventus

Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric has taken a swipe at Juventus.

Real outclassed Juve in the Champions League final.

“[Coach Zinedine] Zidane found the weak point of the Bianconeri defence, and we prepared for the final all week with that in mind," Modric explained to Sportske Novosti.

“The Juve defenders are fantastic when they're in position, but not if you can catch them on the counter-attack.

“We worked on that, and it's how we managed to score three of our four goals in the final. I congratulate Zidane for discovering that, it was key to the game."
