Luka Modric could potentially be playing his final international tournament with Croatia at the Euro 2024 and as things stand, things don't look favourable for his team. After their 3-0 defeat against Spain, it was important for Croatia to seal the victory against Albania. 

It started in calamitous fashion for Croatia as they were 1-0 behind inside the first 11 minutes. Chances came and went begging for Croatia but a late surge meant that they equalised through Andrej Kramaric in the 74th minute and went ahead in the 76th minute through a Gjasula own goal. 

However, Gjasula's 95th minute equaliser meant that Croatia are now on the brink of an exit. As soon as the final whistle went Luka Modric was stunned and he went down on the ground absolutely heartbroken with the result.
