What. A. Pass.

With Real Madrid trailing 3-0 in the match and on the verge of exiting the Champions League at the hands of a stunning Chelsea comeback, Luka Modric produced a moment of class to help send the exhilarating tie to extra time.

The Croatian midfielder picked out substitute Rodrygo with a sublime outside-of-the-foot ball, and the Brazilian slotted it home on the volley. The goal knotted the encounter at four apiece on aggregate.
