"The reins now belong to Luka Modric, and he's firmly in control. The Croatian will play his 11th start in 11 matches: he has never relinquished the sceptre. Luka directs with authority, imposing his play. He leads Serie A among his counterparts in terms of number of balls played, number of passes completed, and number of passes in the final third of the pitch. He also ranks second in defensive duels won."
"It was 2 October 2010 when Massimiliano Allegri earned his first away win as Milan coach, in a season that would end with the title. Andrea Pirlo got the crucial goal, with a strike from no less than 40 yards. Now, on 8 November 2025, Allegri is back at Milan, back in Parma and in search of his 100th victory. The keys to the team are entrusted to another midfield champion: Modric."
