Real Madrid Fans Bid Emotional Farewell to Ancelotti and Modric at the Bernabeu

Real Madrid hosted their last La Liga home match on May 24, 2025, at the Santiago Bernabéu against Real Sociedad, honoring coach Carlo Ancelotti and midfielder Luka Modrić.
The farewell followed the club securing second place in La Liga and was prompted by Ancelotti's departure to coach Brazil and Modrić's planned exit after the Club World Cup in the USA.
Before kickoff, Real Madrid showcased all 15 trophies won under Ancelotti’s leadership during his two spells from 2013 to 2015 and 2021 to 2025, while fans chanted Modrić’s name as he started the match and gave him a guard of honour upon his departure from the field in the 87th minute.
The match ended 2-0 with Kylian Mbappé scoring twice, and Modrić leaves having played 590 matches with 28 titles, including six Champions League wins and a 2018 Ballon d’Or.
The event marked a sentimental farewell to the club's most decorated coach and a key player, suggesting a new era as Ancelotti begins coaching Brazil and Modrić completes his last match at the upcoming Club World Cup.
