Real Madrid 1-0 Sevilla: Luka Modric's late strike keeps LaLiga leaders eight points clear of Barcelona... as ex-Los Blancos star Sergio Ramos is beaten in first game back at the Bernabeu

Daily Mail  

Luka Modric rolled back the years to score the winner in Real Madrid’s narrow victory over Sergio Ramos’ Sevilla. It was the former Real Madrid captain’s first game back at the Bernabeu since he left the club two years ago and it looked for 85 minutes as if he was going to leave with a clean sheet and a point, but his old pal Modric had other ideas. The 38-year-old came on at minute 75 and when Ramos headed Fede Valverde’s cross clear the ball dropped to the Croatian and his first touch teed him up perfectly to curl and unstoppable shot from the edge of the area past Orjan Nyland to give Real Madrid the lead. Ex-Los Blancos captain Sergio Ramos was beaten in his first game back since leaving Madrid The game was now a scrappy ill-tempered affair but Fede Valverde brought some class to the chaos with a long-range missile of a shot that Nyland matched with a fine save.
