Outstanding performance
Lokomotiva Zagreb•DefenderLokomotiva Zagreb produced a stunning four-minute turnaround to secure a crucial victory after falling behind to an early penalty. Mirko Susak epitomized the fighting spirit with his equalizer just two minutes after Ljuban Crepulja's spot-kick, though his celebration earned him a booking for what appeared to be an overzealous foul. The hosts dominated proceedings with 55% possession and 16 shots to Slaven's five, creating three big chances compared to their opponents' solitary opportunity. Blaz Boskovic proved the match-winner six minutes from time, capitalizing on Lokomotiva's sustained pressure and clinical finishing that saw them convert six of their efforts on target while forcing four saves from the visiting goalkeeper.
