AC Milan organized Bologna in the Serie A 2025-26 after a rocky start to the season. With the game locked on 0-0, Luka Modric broke the impasse and scored his first goal for the Rossoneri only a few days after his 40th birthday.
With Santiago Gimenez as the only natural attacking option on the field, Milan had difficulty creating clear opportunities in a competition that missed quality opportunities. In the second half, the home team stepped up, where the Croatian midfielder orchestrated the game of midfield and made an impact in the attacking third.
In the 61st minute, Modric played a key role in a fast structure. He received the ball back from Alexis Saelemaekers after a wide run and delivered a clinical finish in the box to lead Milan, with the calmness and vision of the Croatian veteran, even at 40.
The goal came only a few days after his birthday on September 9. “Age is just a number‘Written Modric that day on social media and he proved that statement on the field by scoring the decisive goal of securing Milan’s three points.
With the victory over Bologna, Milan climbed to fifth place in the Serie A with six points from three games. Il Rossonero will visit Udinese on Saturday 20 September, before being confronted with Lecce in the Coppa Italia round of 32 – a competition that has become an important objective after Milan had missed the European competition this season.
