With Real Madrid’s 2-0 victory over Borussia Dortmund, the team Merengue won the 15th Champions League Cup in its history, but in addition to that they also managed to make history on an individual level.

And for Luka Modric, Nacho Fernández, Toni Kroos and Dani Carvajal, the victory against Borussia Dortmund also meant reaching Paco Gento, a Real Madrid legend who defended the colors of the White House club in the 1950s and 1960s. This is undoubtedly a top-level and impressive achievement. Real Madrid has managed to lift ‘La orejona’ 6 times since achieving the long-awaited tenth in the 2014 season. Many more would later arrive in the years 2016, 2017, 2018, 2021 and 2023, with which they have been able to reach this figure It seemed impossible but today it is a reality.

A meaning beyond sports

This fact has been very special for the 4 players who achieved it, but much more for the German Toni Kroos who in this way has a much more special and unique retirement from the world of professional foot ball, in addition to being a living legend for all of Real Madrid.

A more uncertain future is that of Luka Modric and Nacho Fernández. The Croatian, 38 years old, has been losing prominence in Ancelotti’s team and has not felt comfortable with it. In the case of the 34-year-old Spaniard, also captain of the team, not long ago he left open the possibility that this would be his last season in Madrid, a team where he has lived for 11 years, but which could possibly be coming to an end. the journey in the White House.

Dani Carvajal’s continuity seems more secure. The right back remains established in the starting eleven and continues to demonstrate a very good level of play, being an important player, with character and who inspires his teammates to continue fighting every minute on the field of play. Also enshrined on the right wing of the Spanish national team, Carvajal can once again be seen defending the red team for what will be the current year’s Euro Cup that will take place in Germany.

Real Madrid is the club:
