Watch: Real Madrid legends Ronaldo & Modrić reunite ahead of Nations League clash | OneFootball

Footage which is no doubt set to bring a collective smile to the faces of Real Madrid supporters the world over has come to the fore online.

This comes ahead of the upcoming showdown between Portugal and Croatia.

The two countries are primed to lock horns in short order, in a highly-anticipated Nations League Group A clash.

In the buildup to as much, the respective squads took their place on the pitch, to get a feel for the pitch at The Estádio da Luz.

And, as alluded to above, in the midst of this endeavour, two iconic figures at La Liga giants Real Madrid were reunited once more.

The pair in question? Cristiano Ronaldo, and Luka Modrić.

Ballon d’Or winners Ronaldo and Modrić spent six years lining out alongside one another in Spain’s capital, between 2012 and 2018.

Both expected to play prominent roles for their countries in Thursday’s matchup in Lisbon, too, they therefore came together for a warm embrace and chat on the pitch.

Footage of as much can be seen below, with further exchanges between two of Real Madrid’s greatest-ever players expected over the course of the 90 minutes tonight:
