22:15 IST: Good morning and welcome to the live commentary of the match between Croatia and Denmark.

The three victories of Croatia have led many people to claim that Croatia could win the 2018 World Cup, especially in a tournament where there does not seem to be a favorite

. Andres Iniesta

Four years with Iniesta in Barcelona and 11 alongside Modric for Croatia leaves Rakitic in a privileged position to judge two of the best playmakers of the modern era.

Iniesta is regularly ranked among the greats of the game and As a decisive influence on the success of Spain, Modric's talents remain relatively unknown.

It's perhaps because Iniesta's talent was supported by successes on the world stage – he scored the winning goal of the 2010 World Cup finals – while Modric n & # 39; 39 has not reached the same highs with Croatia.

Modric has four Champions League titles since his six years at Real Madrid, and has also won a La Liga and Copa del Rey. [19659082] [ad_2]
