Ante Rebić is absolutely on fire! After a fantastic goal last weekend, Rebić did it again Sunday in a 2-1 victory over Genoa. In the 13th minute, Rebić sent a left-footed rocket from 18 yards out as his momentum was taking him away from goal. He looks as hungry as ever; and this is all without Zlatan due to a red card suspension.
However, Rebić did miss a sitter in the second half; crushing the ball over the crossbar. He should have easily had two goals in this match – but with Euro 2021 two months away – he is in absolute perfect form. There’s only seven matches remaining in the Serie A season and AC Milan trail Inter Milan by nine points. Mario Mandžukić came on with 30 minutes to play.
Rebić Rocket
Luka Modrić and Real Madrid missed a golden opportunity to keep pressure on leaders Atletico as they played out a scoreless draw with Getafe on Sunday. Modrić was given a 7/10 grade as “he suffered in the midfield and often couldn’t find a way to move the ball forward (a bit uncharacteristic). Had to drop into defence to help the backline multiple times which limited his influence. Finished with one shot, two dribbles, one aerial won and one tackle.” Real Madrid now travel Atletico by three points.
Mateo Kovačić is still out with a hamstring injury but Chelsea got the job done without him; defeating Manchester City 1-0 in the FA Cup semifinal match Saturday. Chelsea will now play Leicester City May 15th for the FA Cup title.
Andrej Kramarić has been cold. He played 90 minutes in Hoffenheim’s 0-0 draw vs. RB Leipzig.
Zidane took a big chance by resting many of his starters, and it backfired.
Modric didn’t do much at all, Marca is full of shit.
Marca on Modric yesterday:
Real Madrid ratings vs Getafe: Modric keeps dancing

Luka Modric provided the quality in Real Madrid’s display against Getafe during their 0-0 draw together at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez.
The veteran midfielder played on without Casemiro and Toni Kroos, putting in another fine display in the middle of the park.

1. In the absence of Casemiro, the Croatian had more defensive duties than usual. That didn’t stop him showing his class in the centre of midfield with some lovely turns, touches and passes to his teammates.
Sosa didn’t play because of a slight muscle injury, nothing to worry about
So FIFA and UEFA is threatening to bar
Players that participate in this Super rich league.
We lose Rebic, Luka, Mateo, Perisic and Bronzo.
If they go through bye bye Eurocup
Great goal by Rebic but he also phucks up so many other chances.
P.S.
RIP Football
Kramaric and Vlasic have both cooled off significantly… also wonder why Sosa didn’t play over the weekend
What the heck is happening with this stupid super league???
What a miss by Rebic
Pjacas presence must have rubbed off
Thought Modric might get a rest. Nope. Starting.

I pray my MANdzukic gets a goal soon.
Rebić has been improving his finishing year after year.
At 27 he is just reaching his nogometaš prime as we are late bloomers.
Modrić at 35 is still at his peak.
Rebić provides dynamic power and explosive play.
He is prime for a breakout tournament.
We go as Rebić – Perišić go.
Modrić is Modrić.
Can Kovačić get to the next level?
Brekalo next step?
Any young players?
….And now at the start of the second half, he missed the net from in close.
Rebic makes it 1-0 !
