⚽ Modric stays. Croatia breathe again.

Luka Modric turns 41 on Wednesday. He's not retiring from Croatia. Slaven Bilic back as manager helped keep him around. 202 caps and counting. Nations League games coming up against Czech Republic, Spain, England -5-13.

He's still running AC Milan's midfield. Now he's dragging Croatia through another campaign. Some people thought Portugal knocked him out for good at the World Cup. They were wrong -13. Man's made of something else.

Watch the price on Croatia's over 0.5 goals against Spain. If it's above 1.70, take it. Modric on the pitch changes the whole line.
