Outstanding performance
Dinamo Zagreb•DefenderDinamo Zagreb controlled proceedings from the outset, racking up 67% possession and 85 dangerous attacks compared to Gorica's 42, and it was that sustained pressure that told when Dion Beljo struck in the 28th minute. Gorica, however, were far from passive bystanders, generating three big chances of their own but missing all of them, a wasteful finishing display that ultimately cost them any chance of a point. The hosts made it count from just one big chance created, a clinical contrast that summed up the difference between the sides. With the win, Dinamo continue to press their title credentials while Gorica will be left to rue their profligacy in front of goal against one of the league's top sides.
