The experienced defender has lavished praise upon the Real Madrid and Barcelona stars following his side's 3-0 win over Argentina
Luka Modric and Ivan Rakitic are the best central midfield pairing at the 2018 World Cup according to experienced Croatia defender Vedran Corluka.
Real Madrid playmaker Modric and his Barcelona counterpart Rakitic have resumed their alliance for the national team to fine effect in Russia, with both scoring second-half goals as Argentina were thumped 3-0 on Thursday.
On the back of a 2-0 win over Nigeria that the duo controlled effortlessly, it meant Croatia's progress to the knockouts stages for their first time since their famous run to the 1998 semi-finals was secured with a game to spare.
