Modric not obsessed about winning FIFA best player award
Modric, winning FIFA award is not an obsession
The Croatian was speaking after his side was demolished and bamboozled by what was an exceptional performance from La Roja.
Just two months afterwards featuring in the finals of the world cup, Croatia were left in shambles after they were turn apart by a near-perfect display from Spain.
The 32-year-old said he wasn't obsessed with winning the prestigious title and that he just wants the best for the team.
Modric said Croatia had done well in the first 20 minutes of play but that they had become complacent afterwards. He said the team knew they were playing a country with very good played and that they had tried their best but towards the end of the game, they lost it especially after considering the second goal.
Modric would be hoping to put this game behind him and help Real Madrid at the weekend when they lock hands with Althetic Bilbao.
