Modric: We will have to see if another team can ever repeat Real Madrid's results Real Madrid Unprecedented run in Champions League era

Doubt has been cast on whether a team can replicate Real Madrid's Champions League success in the future by midfielder Luka Modric.

Since the competition rebranded under its current format, no team had ever managed to defend the trophy after winning it, until Los Blancos not only did that but won three-in-a-row with their triumph over Liverpool in Kiev.

"I don't know what else I can say about it really other than that I'm very happy, more than happy," he stated in an interview with Croatian newspaper Jutarnji list.

"Every moment I've had at Real has been one of great pleasure.

"We have achieved historic results, something incredible, and now we will just have to see if any other team succeeds in repeating our results in the future."

One of the main topics of conversation in the wake of Real's success was, surprisingly, the future of Cristiano Ronaldo, who hinted that he could leave the club, although it wasn't something that Modric wanted to focus on.

"The Spanish [media] asked me about it too but I don't want to talk about it, if I'm honest," he said.

"We'll see what happens but it is too important a win to talk about that kind of thing."

One teammate he was happy to discuss was Gareth Bale, who came off the bench to steal the show with two goals which secured a 13th Champions League title.

"It is definitely one of the top three most beautiful goals I've ever seen in the Champions League, maybe even the most beautiful of all time!" he said.
