Re: Croatian Football Season 2023/24

In the last 5 rounds (25 games) there have been 3 home wins, 3 draws and 19 away wins! Where's the home advantage when you need it?

Re: Croatian Football Season 2023/24

After the NT break the final quarter of our league begins. We have two running battles, the title race and 4th place which might provide access to Europe. The relegated team, although still not 100% secure, will be Rudeš. There is still one game to be played, the postponed 5th round clash between Di...

Re: 2023/2024 Conference League Round of 16

I'm not even joking, anyone who might consider a Croatian team eliminating a Greek team should really go and get their head checked, it might be serious.

Re: Croatian Football Season 2023/24

Congratulations on the new president, an icon of Dinamo, who is expected to lead the club into new heights and triumphs. Also, congratulations to Patrik Kolarić, a very "perspective" referee with a "bright future" ahead of him, who gets all the highest marks for today's "fla...

Re: 2023/2024 Conference League Round of 16

Greece is the absolute winner of this draw. Not only does PAOK have a free pass into the quarterfinals, Olympiakos has a very good chance against MTA.

Plzeň, on the other hand, can remain the sole contributor to the Czech fairytale.

Also, there's Ajax-Aston Villa, one for the true romantics!

Re: Croatian Football Season 2023/24

Hajduk-Rijeka 1:2 Karoglan's run came to an end, Hajduk is finally defeated under his helm, and deservedly so. Hajduk took the lead early on, and spent the rest of the game doing what Hajduk does best - looking pathetic and uninspired. This game also served as an clear indicator of why our teams in ...

Re: 2023/2024 Conference League Knockout Round PO

Dinamo will need some luck on Monday, it's 50/50 for a decent draw.

Ajax, Betis and Union are the ones to avoid.

Olympiakos can field their U17 team and comfortably advance as per tradition.

All others are OK, maybe Sturm is the best option.

Re: Croatian Football Season 2023/24

Closing time! It's Dinamo-Hajduk on Sunday to put an end on the first half of the season. Hajduk is already in panic mode, because they dropped 2 points against Lokomotiva, and if they lose to Dinamo, those poor euphoria balloons will be even closer to bursting. Luckily winter break is on so it's so...

Re: Croatian Football Season 2023/24

A little break from chasing the ball on the fields and putting the focus onto the surrounding infrastructure. It is well known that Croatia is by a several thousand light miles behind developed Europe and its stadium infrastructure, so any news promising upcoming changes and developments in that are...

Re: Croatian Football Season 2023/24

After a routine victory in Split, Osijek seems to finally have caught some fresh air, and now we have 5 teams inside 5 points. The hunt for the title is open, and even though it for now seems that no one wants it that badly, we might be seeing a lot of drama until the end. But it will most probably ...

Re: UEFA Euro 2024 Qualifiers

Being a "top-tier team" and managing to miss out on a 24 team EURO, now that's an achievement.

Dinamo lacks a number of standard/key players here. They would have issues with a 4th division side in a cup game, let alone Ballkani.
