Kroos and Modric are driving Real Madrid forward

It has been all smiles at Real Madrid since Zinedine Zidane took up his position in the dugout. The team are unstoppable in attack, having netted 17 goals in their last four games since the Frenchman took charge. More impressive still, they have only conceded twice. Luka Modric and Toni Kroos are two of the players who have contributed most to the Madrid outfit's recent improvement. Their statistics do the talking.

Toni Kroos and Luka Modric have forged an impressive partnership in midfield. The German takes care of things on the left side and the Croat is in charge on the right. From their respective flanks, they are providing the necessary balance to transform Los Blancos into an offensive juggernaut.

After playing their 22nd Liga BBVA fixture, Real Madrid now stand on a total of 64 goals. Kroos and Modric were involved in 11 of them. The German has provided seven assists and the Croat four. Despite the fact that neither of the two players has managed to find the back of the net of their own account, their vision and quality are making a significant contribution to the side's ability to score goals.

However, this does not mean that Toni Kroos and Luka Modric are shirking their defensive responsibilities. They are the two players in the squad who have won back the most balls for their team. Kroos has regained possession on 119 occasions and Modric on 118. They represent the perfect harmony between defence and attack.

They are the epitome of balance and power, and the driving force behind this Madrid side. Their accuracy is also enviable. They both boast a pass completion rate of over 90%. The German has successfully completed 93% of the passes which he has attempted. Meanwhile, the Croatian has found his intended recipient 91% of the time. Modric and Kroos, Kroos and Modric, the perfect partnership, and the driving force behind Real Madrid.
