Carlo Ancelotti praised Luka Modric as an "extraordinary professional" after the midfielder celebrated becoming Real Madrid's oldest-ever player by providing an assist in their 2-1 win at Celta Vigo.
A stunning strike from Kylian Mbappé put Madrid ahead in the first half at Balaidos on Saturday, and Williot Swedberg levelled for Celta.
Modric then came off the bench -- breaking Ferenc Puskas' record as Madrid's oldest player to feature in a competitive match, at 39 years and 40 days -- before playing in Vinícius Júnior for the winning goal three minutes later.
