Dinamo fought for their first win of the season with a big 5-1 victory over NK Inter Zaprešić.
Inter also experienced their first loss in the Prva Liga after two previous draws as the newcomers in the top flight of Croatian football.
Dinamo’s shining star of the weekend was 21-year-old Bosnian, Armin Hodžić who scored a hat trick on Saturday as well as what will be labeled as the greatest goal of the season.
Hodžić’s first goal came in the seventh minute and started the match off with a thrilling overhead shot.
Marko Rog chipped a clever pass into the box and was met by Hodžić who struck the ball with a flying overhead kick, sending the ball over the goalkeeper.
Hodžić would go on to score two more goals, in the 58th and 61st minute.
Inter’s best scorer, Ilja Nestorovsky, would score a consolation goal for Inter, but Dinamo took all three points and easily and are on their way upwards towards the top.
Hajduk Split did not fair as well this weekend and suffered their first loss of the season at the hands of NK Istra 1961.
Two goals from Marcel Heister, one from Antonio Repić, and one from Dario Tomić was enough for the boys from Pula to beat Hajduk 4-1 at Aldo Drasino.
Tomislav Kiš scored one goal for Hajduk while trying to mount a comeback, but Heister scored his second goal only seconds later, thwarting any attempt to secure any points.
Hajduk currently sits in eighth place with two draws and a loss while Istra sit in second place with two wins and one loss.
Rumors are surrounding Hajduk standout, Tino-Sven Šusić and are saying that English club, Tottenham Hotspur is interested in his talent, according to The Sun.
The Bosnian international has been priced at three millions euros by Tottenham scouts and could find himself with the North London club by the next transfer window.
HNK Rijeka are also still in search of their first win of the season, having drawn all three games played thus far.
Rijeka drew NK Zagreb 3-3 in an incredibly close match where the teams nearly scored all three goals simultaneously.
Bekim Balaj scored first in the match in the 23rd minute, but his goal was quickly countered with a goal from Gabrijel Boban in the 25th minute.
Balaj found himself on the scoresheet a second time in the 32nd minute, but his goal was once again countered by Boban in the 34th minute.
Filip Krovinović scored what he hoped was the game winning goal in the 73rd minute, but Roman Bezjak scored another goal for Rijeka in the 75th minute, ending the match 3-3.
RNK Split was the only team out of Split to win this weekend, defeating Osijek 2-1.
Split is leading the league with two wins and one draw thanks to the win against Osijek over the weekend.
Slavko Blagojevicć and Dino Špehar scored in the 21st and 24th minute to go up by two goals.
Tomislav Šorsa scored for Osijek, but came up short in Split and Osijek experienced their first loss of the season.
Lokomotiva just faced a tough blow to their potential win thanks to a 87th minute goal by Stefan Savić.
The Austrian-born Savić knotted up the match after his team was trailed most of the game.
Mirko Marić gave Lokomotiva their first lead of the night in the 3rd minute. Marić masterfully scored on a rebound of a shot saved from Damir Sovšić.
Sandi Križman tied the match at one goal a piece in the 48th minute, but the Pharmascists could not hang on for long and the Lokosi scored again in the 55th minute off the foot of Ivan Fiolić.
Savić tied the match in the dying minutes to salvage a point for Ante Cačić and Slaven Belupo.
With the draw, Slaven move out of last place and into eighth, while Lokomotiva jump Osijek for fourth place on goal differential.
Can one of you in CA send me some In N Out burger? I haven’t been to CA – or as wacked out as it sounds – west of Chicago.
Get some dry ice, pack that shit nicely and send it my way in New England, overnight obviously.
Is that too much to ask for?!!? Are we not trying to unite each other here!?!?
BOG
Good one Toni.
How stupid is this Serb, the officer asks him if he needs medical treatment and the Serb answers that he should conclude on the basis of how he looks, because he was bleeding. Why didn’t the Serb just say yes to the officer’s question, so the officer could’ve replied, go to Serbia and get your medical treatment.
We need some emoji’s on this site. I got the popcorn going right now, love the bitch fest that is going on. Pure gold for entertainment thank u Slavonic and ante bbb
someone hasnt seen napoleon dynamite?
the vote for pedro shirts used to be EVERYWHERE when that movie came out !
funny film tho
That’s fine too if you want. Not my first rodeo. I won’t hide or be scared. Obviously you don’t care. I mean who would keep responding if they didn’t?
…people talk about those they don’t necessarily care to associate themselves with, in this case, your so-called buddies reached out and told me not to take offense of your ongoing attacks and constant barrages…
regardless Ante, I could care less about who you are but the one thing I’m certain of is you have big mouth and it would make me happy to meet up with you one day…THEN we’d see how much you’d be insulting me?!?!
If that’s the case, I’m sure it was lovely. Nothing more respectful than talking behind ones back after being supposedly reached out to. Funny though as your writing is enough evidence for me to come to my own conclusions without having to find a man behind the moniker.
Over a year ago people that know you personally, reached out to me to tell me what I’m dealing with…I only then understood more about you so I left you alone…
“That means you talk about me”
when a person comes to me to tell me about you…and describe you as the village idiot and some things I just won’t get into on this site…I think we can safely say they wanted me to know I should just let the ugly comments go because of who you are and how you behave in real life!
Wonderful. That means you talk about me. Now who has the man crush?
hahaha…and again, he tries hard to prove he belongs somewhere and is accepted.
sad sad case!
belittle someone thats achieved while putting attention on a name that identifies himself as part of something…what an awesome achievement Mr fanboy…pa you’re special!
someone from this site once told me about you and I thought it was an exaggeration…well, I now see they were right!
You’re right. I’m totally jealous I didn’t get to play in Bosna back in the day where I became a master technician of the game, know it better than anybody here and come onto a website using a moniker to attempt to prove it. The nickname Ante BBB was given to me by my friends to differentiate between the dozens of Ante’s in the community. I can live with that.
like I said…jealousy is a disease and the only way for you to stay relevant is to try and be-little somebody else’s achievements…little person in a big world…claim to fame is being BBB fanboy…then attempting to belittle me…nice one!
long live the Uncle Rico of CSR who thinks laughing it off makes it true and all better. Notice not one retort or answer. Keep laughing. This one is for you whenever your brilliant soccer technical skills and knowing the game better than anyone here comes into play
http://youtu.be/nOwPr6kGHRE
Hilarious!
so lets compare…part of a professional organization vs part of a hooligan base…hmmmmm???
jealousy is a dangerous thing, lies are worse…I’ll let Mr BBB fanboy keep spewing his BS…I made my comments and backed them up. Mr fanboy is obviously desperate!
I pissed my pants laughing yesterday when I saw him continuously looking for Ziva’s acceptance…as he often does with othesr…like that dog Chester…a direct quote from him to Ziva:
“Ziva, Get used to it and thank you for seeing that…”
hahahahaha…Ziva…thank you for seeing that? hahahaha….
Here’s another depiction of Ante looking to Ziva for solace, acceptance and friendship….
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24-zvMyxNAo
I’ve never in my life met anyone so desperate to be perceived as relevant!
his new nickname should be Chester BBB
Mamic and Rico wouldn’t work out, would end up in one of these
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bkRGH4sJDE
Uncle Rico would make a great coach at Dinamo.
Imagine him and Mamic doing post game interviews at the podium? The stuff of dreams…
ante bbb wins again last comment was legendary
http://inserbia.info/today/2015/07/croatia-hooligans-beat-a-young-man-because-he-is-serb/
@Bobby V
felt that same way when those fans in Split painted on the field, that was not a f.off to the HNS but rather one to all of croatia and it’s fans
I just found out this is an old movie, gonna be cheap and cult classic too boot. I can’t wait to find out the question he was asked when he answered, “how much you want to make a bet I can throw a football over them mountains.”
The solution to the Mamic problem at Dinamo is simple, vote for Pedro!
This should be the Croatiansports.com offical web page anthem.

Thanks Melb Cro, gonna go buy this.
The movie is Napoleon Dynamite
What’s this movie? How about the comment the guy made on you tube. That’s gonna be Tony Romo in ten years. Funny stuff.
Ask him a question and this is his response because he doesn’t know the answer.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjXZvcgHIXY
I’m glad Slavonac from Canada put up his clip, if he didn’t we wouldn’t of got to see Ante B’s funny clip. Great work by both you guys. The guy asks the ball what do you think you’re doing. Haha haha
First off, I’d like to see you try. Good luck.
This all comes from a person who is a glorified chest bumping AYSO soccer coach who played back in the 80’s and now thinks he’s the alpha-omega soccer master technician of Croatiansports.com. If anything, he reminds me of Uncle Rico from Napolean Dynamite. Here he was coaching the other day:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7b8uE1kza-0
He admittedly has claimed that he didn’t know about Mamic until only a couple of years ago, hasn’t been to a Dinamo or a Croatia game since AOL became popular, never has been to Sjever at either Poljud, Maksimir, Gradski Vrt, Kantrida, etc. (watch, he’s going to look up what those places are), didn’t know anything about Prosinecki’s allegiances before the war and his coaching decision, wants foreigners to play for Croatian teams while they haven’t done fuck all for any team, shits on others for going to church and Croatian events, says that Hajduk is nobody and means nothing as a quasi-dinamovac yet still refuses to offer an answer, shits on people who have gone to games and have actually experienced things in real life and don’t get every single piece of information from the Internets. Then when presented with actual facts, makes no attempt to answer anything. It just happens to be coincidence that most of the guys he gets his answers from happen to be the two whom he attempts to trash the most. The list continues to grow each day.
Yeah…you can have that type of guy in your corner. I’ll pass.
And my comment is awaiting moderation. Lovely.

Check it out – Machado being substituted, flipping the fans off twice and then being shown the red card.
No way he’s playing for Dinamo again.
For me, I take it as Machado giving to finger to all of Croatia. If you really think about it – I mean, who the fuck does he think he is.
Some of my Hajduk fan friends agree – none of them laughed at the Dinamo fans for being on the receiving end of that. Funny that we all had the same reaction.
LMFAO
bravo Slavonac from Canada
it isnt playstation?
wait WHATTTTT
are u suggesting playstation isnt an accurate reflection of football? well, i never.. !!
Note to self, don’t get into an argument with Slavonac from Canada. I’m still laughing after watching that cartoon.
wow, that’s beef in my hood right there…
Always looking for Ziva’s approval!
“Like Ziva says, never change.”
“Really? Ziva just did and I have many times so…”
“See Ziva. There he goes again….”
“Ziva,
Get used to it and thank you for seeing that. He also puts words in your mouth, shifts the topic to meet his agenda and then gets loud saying he’s right….”
Somebody’s got a man crush on Ziva…here they are in their way to a Dinamo game with the BBB:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UVNHcob3oJg
Can anyone guess which one is Ante?
drum roll……….and the winner is Slavonac over Ante B, Ziva and Sudi Mi
Nice goal. I hope they have some Monaco games this year on beIN sports.
Here’s an article from a year and a half ago. It explains how imports are ruling all over Europe but our BBB fanboy Ante thinks that somehow Dinamo should only play players from Croatia:
http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/jan/21/premier-league-second-expat-europe-cyprus
It’s always interesting to see guys that have “been around soccer” since they were 9 take offence to those that have lived in the culture of the game. The difference in opinion is huge but of course, the guy that has mostly been a spectator will tell us he’s the real fan cause he hears info from his buddies at BBB and of course, they’re all experts!
Most players understand the level of competition is incredibly high and that it takes an incredibly well coached team along with talented players all combined with the correct system to achieve the goal of playing in Europe! This isn’t Playstation, the lower ranked teams aren’t as easy at it looks, at least not to those that get it…the margin is not huge in the lower tiers but then again…Ante knows best what’s right for his team that he cheers for…he’s been there first hand and even fought for his BBB…they know best!
Hahaha….hilarious!
Dalmatinac Sam*
sorry to all my Torcide and Cico
SHAME! BOG!
@ Ante
In terms of himne, my top 3 were always:
Dinamo Ja Volim
Dalmacijo (over Dalmatinac San – in my book at least)
and while not a banger, per se…
Najdraza Rijeko (over 60 minuta, Nacin Zivota, Plavo Bijela … and anything by Gane Rimatore)
Pašalić goal:
http://sportske.jutarnji.hr/video–kakav-sjajan-debi-za-pasalica-zabio-krasan-gol-i-dokazao-se-navijacima-monaca-/1390334/
^^^ that was me, the anonymous guy
@ Ante B
They spent alotta money on those mercanaries, they are better off spending it on some Croatian talent.
With today’s draw, Dinamo has certainly dug itself into a hole. Because you see a cat has so many lives, and I get the funny feeling this ain’t gonna be Fola, where they can just easily win on the road.
And the fallout of a Dinamo loss will be far greater than what we saw in Luxembourg, that’ll be just a family picnic compared to what’s gonna happen!
For sure Pasalic finds himself on the roster. Saw a few of his games at Elche last year, got better as the year went on. Scored a few late in the season and Ziva says he scored again today for Monaco. This kids going places.
Only 3 Hrvati? It’s a normal occurrence. Dinamo is trying to improve their situation and performance. It’s part of the game.
So Dinamo played with only 3 hrvati, the rest were foriegn mercenaries–who are a’buncha schmucks if ask me! Especially Machado, who stuck his middle finger at the fans. A disgrace.
So, Dinamo played today…
i think we can all agree I am the voice of reason………..or the voice half of you hate.
All good either way.
Hahaha…you don’t see yourself Ante!
See what I mean. Twisting words. Never said Ziva was the voice of reason. Just didn’t want to steal his line. There’s a microcosm of what you consistently do. Its about time you got called on it. Go ahead and take the last word on this one because I know you want it.
Armada,
As a non Dinamo and non Hajduk guy, is Dinamo Ja Volim a fist pumper? What other himna can hold up to that one?
popevvvvvvvvvvvke, sam slagal i rozicceeeeeeee braaaaaaaal
Oh boy, so now Ziva is the voice of reason?
Ante…you’ve gotta try and stop using others to back you or discredit others! I’ve never once used that but I’ve seen many hammer you!
Hahaha of course you were. People can buy it, I won’t. Nice smokescreen. Like Ziva says, never change.
…Ante, you count as one…Ziva’s first ever time and most likely the last…I was making a point by being dramatic just as you often do.
nothing to nobody…they have done shit and look like they won’t be doing any better this season.
PS…I hope Machado gets heavily fined!
@ slavonac
Not new here, what is the answer? Just askin’
Really? Ziva just did and I have many times so there goes that argument. No backpeddling, you said Hajduk is nothing to nobody anymore and your statement above has nothing to do with what you said earlier. Come on now.
I’m known for that?
NOBODY, ever…not one single time has ever said I put words in their mouth.
…and just to prove a point to you…you said “the NHL would catch them”…so why is it different when I use the system in Croatia?
Hajduk is and has been irrelevant on the soccer stage…they’ve been terrible financially, with management and by performance!
See Ziva. There he goes again. Dude you are known for that because you do it all the time. Now to answer your question since you won’t answer mine. If the Sharks were doing anything dishonest, the NHL would catch them and if I needed to, I would do my due diligence. Also, all of their financials are transparent, disclosed and easily available to the public. I’m still waiting to hear how Hajduk doesn’t mean anything to anyone anymore.
Peter north, all Chicago teams brother. Say hi to Tom Byron for me. I always wondered if Christy Canyon was a proper shag.
About Pasalic: he didn’t only play the 90 minutes today. He even scored.
I saw the Dinamo game: another shameful performance. No system, no organization, no ideas. This is probably the worst Dinamo in years. Another coach would be nice but I doubt Mamic will fire his brother.
the King of “putting words in a persons mouth” (Ante) got taste of his own medicine and is now whining about it? and talk about shifting conversations…all you talk about is for someone to show you where the money goes…as if I can do that for you?
have you ever asked the Sharks to disclose their bank account to you? the’ve been underachievers for years (not that I watch hockey anymore)…
@Ante, I feel sorry for you that you watch the Sharts.
Hope your still a Hawks fan.
Born and raised a Blackhawks fan but follow the Sharks because the stadium is a five minute walk from my place.
Ziva,
Get used to it and thank you for seeing that. He also puts words in your mouth, shifts the topic to meet his agenda and then gets loud saying he’s right. That’s the formula. I’ve been so accustomed to it over time that I’ve become numb. I too didn’t say the same thing but he makes it out to be that we did. Here’s a nice Machado welcome.
are you a Shark fan as well? this is sport Ante…I agree with that comment there, which is a lot healthier than all the other you’ve made and its a lot easier to discuss…100%…but to say play the youth and lets not try to give ourselves the best chance possible is nuts.
we can say their scouting system is bad, their coaching is bad, their player selection is bad, their management is bad….I would agree with all that!
wow, wait a minute, don’t put words in my mouth. I never said the team that spends the most money should win. Not even close.
My argument is that dinamo should have had better results in europe when you look at all the players they have had in the last 10 years.
The foriegners don’t give a shit about the club they play……..which can be examplified by this dinamo idiot who just gave his own fans the finger. That should go over well.
I’m selective because I’m a dinamovac and Dinamo is my team! Tell me what Dinamo as a club has produced for their own sake. You have yet to offer one iota of an answer. Dinamo hasn’t improved. In fact they’ve gotten worse. Answer the question. Also answer the other questions for once!
When you play soccer in Canada, you never play at a high level.
You only can go so far.
Slavonac knows this.
Sude Mi…you new here?
“You’re a supposed Dinamo fan (a term I will use very lightly). Tko si ti?”
hahaha….you’re a BBB fan Ante…not a Dinamo fan!
here’s the best comment you made…EVER!
you agree with me…because you just admitted : “That’s what you’re praising? Congrats you develop talent, lose in Europe and then don’t make any money selling those players ………..because those funds mysteriously disappear”
and again, I’m not talking about Mamic, I’m talking about the production of a club…you’re worried about Mamic filling his pockets, which is fair…but for the love of God…could someone please charge him of some crime already?
“Beautiful business model for making Dinamo better”….who is doing better in Croatia? why don’t you complain how Hajduk’s uprava screwed their team? didn’t 3 of them end up in jail?
why aren’t to calling out Osijek, Zadar, Istra….look at where Zadar ended up…ako ces bit pravac, onda budi za svakoga…in this case, you are soo selective.
@Slavonac
I ask the question again since you like to leverage off it, where did you paly pro and for how long?
Accusing others of having no clue because you played at a high level is disingenuine at best if you aren’t going to come clean about your “expert soccer knowledge.”
P.S. Many world class coaches played little to no professional soccer.
…and according to Ziva and Ante…the team that spends the most money should win, otherwise you want to send in a forensic accountant to make sure they are spending the money wisely!
what does Zenit have to say about their record…or Bayern…Liverpool…
you guys have a hard on for Mamic and anything Dinamo does, you want an investigation.
Dude the same applies to you. Nobody is afraid of you. Get that through your head. Getting back to your point chest bumper. If anyone is intimated by a fat dude, that’s their problem but that’s not the case.
Dinamo has been forcing strano for a long time yielding zero results. Well, excluding the fact they’re the laughing stock. You are praising Dinamo for being the club that most players come from?! That’s what you’re praising? Congrats you develop talent, lose in Europe and then don’t make any money selling those players because those funds mysteriously disappear. Then some of those players go on and make great careers. Beautiful business model for making Dinamo better. You must’ve gone to Yale with Bush.
Now let me press rewind. Where do you get off saying nobody cares about Hajduk? You’re a supposed Dinamo fan (a term I will use very lightly). Tko si ti?
HAHAHAHA Machado
thanks for replying Ante B.
my dream job…watching soccer for a living!
we were discussing playing Croatian youth vs imports Ante, lets rewind the tape. the fact is, any team that has the ability will take the opportunity to TRY and make it…not sure why you guys don’t see that?
also…I challenge you while some of these kids on here are intimidated by you…I’m not…you obviously claim I pound my chest while all I am doing is telling you…and not taking your BS…its like taking about a topic from a bystanders perspective over a person that has some experience…you lose.
Dinamo is making deals with Europe’s biggest clubs and is well known for developing talent…are you denying that?
the radar comment…my point is they are trying to get up the ladder both financially and within the sport…thats what I was trying to say. most teams at this day and age know of Dinamo…its where almost every great Croatian player came from…
my dream job would an inspector at a stadium. Any adult wearing a jersey with another man’s name on the back would be barred entrance into the stadium.
That would be my dream job. A forensic accountant auditing Dinamo.
No that’s what I’m going to talk about because you too come here beating your chest claiming to be the alpha omega of all things soccer related. Congratulations, you know what to do when a team plays 4-4-2. Klanjam ti se. As soon as we deservedly trash Mamic and the way Dinamo has run itself to the ground, here you come horns a blazing. What Mamic has done with the money is another story? No it’s not. I’d be the first to say ok ajde but They literally watered down the competition so teams like Dinamo can make it. Dinamo is on nobody’s radar and hasn’t done shit in Europe since the late 90’s. None of these foreign players haven’t done shit and if that’s the case, let me lose with my own players.
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it today, again! I could give two shits about Mamic…jail him for all I care, but regardless of who is in charge, they all want group stage…thats a 100% fact and if you think for a second its not true, you are wrong.
why they haven’t done as well as Romanian or Cyprus teams…I have no clue and I don’t care to find out but one thing is corruption and another is playing to get into Europe, regardless of if you win a game or lose them all…its a business, they have to set goals.
honestly…you guys are frustrating…now Sude Mi is in on the bandwagon.
what are you saying here. on one side, Dinamo has tons of imports and sells more domestic players than any other club…or actually…makes more money on their players than all Croatian clubs combined…
then the next stupid comment is “If Dinamo channelled those CL funds back into their feeder system”…WTF man…I can’t believe I just read that?!?!
you want a forensic accountant to tell you that Dinamo spends money of buying players and developing players…do you not see the team, read the headlines….come on man!
@slavonac…….but there have been other clubs from other countries with less talent than Dinamo (Cypress, Romania are two examples) that have had more success in europe in recent years than Dinamo has with a better roster. I have no diea what their roster breakdown was or is, but it makes sense having a foreigners when you have european success; you can justify it. Plus, are we sure that the money made by dinamo is going back to the club. Some of it sure is, but not all of it. And I think that is the issue many fans have. They would sacrafice croatian league success for the chance to have their club back and more transparancy.
From a hajduk perspective, the fans finally got their club (to an extent) back with the new rules and how the board is elected. Still a long, long way to go and hajduk needs leadership, which is not easy to find in the Balkans. Now, will it work?
@Slavonac from Canada
Where did you play pro and for how long?
P.S. I’m a fan of Croatian soccer, full stop.
P.S. If Dinamo channelled those CL funds back into their feeder system and the stadium and the fan soccer experience I would not have a problem with the model as it is today. You and I both know that is not the case though….
Ante…its not easy man…the group stage is incredibly tough and to just qualify is a win…especially for a country of less than 4.5 million.
in 2012/2013 Dinamo got $10,500,000…what Mamic does with it is another story that I agree with you on but I cannot agree with you about buying imports and trying to get into the group stage…thats what they all dream of.
Damn, Pasalic with a goal.
Ziva, Hajduk isn’t alone…or are you insinuating most other clubs are healthy financially? how many are healthy…one?
my point has nothing to do with Mamic and everything to do with understanding what the goal is. if they qualify to the group stage, which is hard to do, they make a lot of money…I think thats their goal…to get there, make the money…and hopefully re-invest to make the team stronger.
you can’t argue they aren’t the strongest in Croatia…the hard step is to be competitive in Europe!
How are you improving your team when you can squeeze into the group stages and consistently lose?! Qualifying into each stage is around 8mil, no? Now show me that that money goes back to the actual club.
you cannot win without improving your team…PERIOD! if Dinamo didn’t have their imports, they’d never make it to Europe and if they never made it to Europe, they’d never have made the group stage money…and if they never got that money, they never have been able to afford to buy…its a vicious circle, but its a reality!
Wow, once again Slavonac educating everyone on this site, well done brother but now you have all of them after you. Be careful 🙂
How dare you question Hajduk leadership. LOL
@Slavonac……..Hajduk’s problem has been the leadership over the years and that has infected everything.
Does hajduk wish they had their own Mamic? Sure, to an extent.
But, if you are a fan of dinamo (i have no idea if you are), what has Mamic been able to do with the talent that he has sold in the last 10 years. He has sold players to elite, top-tier clubs. And what did any of those players do for dinamo? What kind of results did they achieve. Not even a fluke run in the group stage. Nothing, unless you consider success winning the Cro league. I don’t. One Yugo league title means more than 10 HNL titles. And now we are beginning to find out all the money made from those moves did not go back to the club.
Even more evidence how your grasp of the game is still when bush was popular…
I’d rather win and at least be on the radar in Europe? You have literally lost your mind. When has Dinamo ever won in Europe? 1967…oh yeah, when it was the Kup Velesajmakih Gradova and you were playing? When was Dinamo on anybody’s radar?! Oh yeah when they were literally the WORST in Europe. For someone claiming to know soccer, that’s pretty scary.
Also I forgot to put quotes around the nobody caring for Hajduk except for the dijaspora and some in Cro. I don’t want people to think I actually wrote something so incredibly stupid and ignorant.
Ante…Dinamo made it to the “Group Stage” of “Champions League” twice in the last five years…here’s a question for you:
do you know how much money they make when they qualify for that stage?
Now…how many times has Hajduk made it to the group stage in the last five years? do the fans make up for the money lost…or for the money their uprava lost for them?
Soccer is a sport and a business, you can talk all you want but you know only about the fan clubs and nothing more.
Hajduk is nothing to nobody except for those in Croatia and diaspora that hang on to the old tradition.
of “Hajduk Zivi Vjecno”!
Clearly you don’t know the game, the history, or how people feel either yet you talk like you know everything because you played 47 years ago and coach. The above statement proves that. Pokrij se usima
Ante…you don’t know a thing about soccer…so stick to politics and your fan club!
please don’t tell me you’ve been around it since you were 9…thats a lame comment!
hahaha…here we go again with the who’s better connected BS! Ante, I follow the sport, you follow the sport of BBB and how they go…you said it yourself that you enjoy being in the stands with them and if need be, get into a brawl.
I come from the other side of the sport…I love the game and understand what it means to be a player, something you have no clue about. I watch a game and see several details you cannot identify with because you don’t have the experience to understand it…so for you…the enjoyment is the fan club and being part of the cheering, booing,singing, screaming and fighting…I enjoy the game!
we obviously see things differently!
any team that is trying to compete and build has to take these chances, whether they win or lose!
Sude me, let me guess…a Hajduk fan discussing a Dinamo topic?
Sude Mi,
Stop using that thing we’re not accustomed to here: logic. Remember it’s the system and how things are always done in soccer.

If you speak Croatian (not an insult), they are doing a live feed on HRT2. Hope this helps
If you mean get your ass handed to you on a silver platter in group stages when you suggest “be on the radar in Europe” then that is exactly what will happen again this year, like every year….
You know what they say about those who think the outcome will be different when doing the same thing over and over right?
I say play the Croatian youth, bloody them and see what they can develop into…..
anybody have a link to the dinamo game? thanks
You’re right. Then again I can take your approach and only find it out on the Internet.
to each his own…you’d rather lose and not make money playing in Europe, I’d rather win and at the very least…be on the radar in Europe….Hajduk is nothing to nobody except for those in Croatia and diaspora that hang on to the old tradition.
of “Hajduk Zivi Vjecno”!
I find it very funny how you are being selective. its you that always says, remover emotions…this is a business…and yet now you’d rather be moral and play knowing you’ll lose over playing to win with the best you can afford….
so explain this. when you’d bankrupt the club because you can’t pay anyone, you can’t sell anyone and you can’t win anything…will you blame Mamic for that too?
Ante…you are your usual self…you accuse people by saying “Let’s continue to praise the current leadership”…when in fact we are talking about a very normal occurrence in soccer…but I guess you’d know more about it if someone from BBB said it!
Dinamo isn’t Man U or Real Madrid. It’s much more than that. Ziva you said it perfectly…I’d rather lose with my own than foreign players. Then again, we are the minority here. Let’s continue to praise the current leadership for the success in Europe.
You make a valid argument.
But, I’ve watched dinamo do nothing in Europe over the years, so if I was a dinamo fan I would prefer to give more croats a chance, assuming they deserve the opportuntiy. I’m not saying the entire roster has to be croatian, but you might get more fans by playing the kids. The public doesn’t show up for the current version along with other known factors.
I prefer to have my beloved jadan, mali i nemocan hajduk lose 4-1 with a bunch of kids from Cro than tie Istra 1-1 with a bunch of former HNL has beens returning home or foreign players that nobody wants. I can live with bad results if it means playing the kids and the chance they may develop and grow into something. That way I have vested interest. If I’m a dinamo fan, I have no vested interest in this current club other than to see how Rog and Pjaca develop.
yeah man but thats a tough balancing act to do. one one hand, they’re trying to buy the best for the money that they spend…which is tough considering the fact this is the HNL, not the Bundesliga and who wants to play there? secondly, regardless of how we feel about Mamic, the goal is to advance…regardless of if they do, they have to do their best with what they have…we, have the luxury of criticizing because we have 20/20 vision and make comments after they lose….imagine choosing a starting line-up and trying to win, utilizing only Croatian players?
so are you suggesting they don’t buy these players Ziva? if so, you’re automatically out of any consideration to play in Europe and you most likely lose the HNL title as well.
if you think they should buy foreigners…should they put them on the bench to watch the domestic players have a go at it?
I think you guys are singling out Mamic, anytime you can…while at the same time we see Hajduk lose on the weekend…what was it…4-1?
WOULD YOU PREFER THAT?
@slavonac…….I don’t think that is his point. If europski dinamo was successful and actually had results in Europe, then I don’t think dinamo fans would have an issue with the large number of non-hrvati. But, it causes an issue when the foreigners don’t produce. When it comes to countries like Croatia, I rather lose with my own kids than lose with outside talent.
so Manchester United, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich …should all start players from their country?
hahaha…
I love it when people make these comments…its part of the game!
Since you broght up over/under………..
Over/under on the following:
Number of STDs currently being carried by STD Corluka?
Percentage of Modric’s salary that he has to pay Mamic?
Big mistakes by Lovren in the first two EPL games of the season?
The number of diaspora hrvati at this very moment – as your read this – who are in Cro and butchering a drink order?
Pjaca and Simunovic for sure. Rog? Who else???? Is Schildenfeld healthy? Pivaric?
I say 3, possibly 4 for europski dinamo.
Over under on Hrvati starting for Dinamo today. Go.
True, but he was not going to sit at Hajduk and he wasn’t going to sit in Spain coming over on loan from Chelsea. I’m sure Chelsea had a firm understanding with the Spanish club when they sent him on loan.
He is an example of a kid you taken advantage of playing time and earned it. Nothing was handed to him. If he keeps this up, he might find himself on the roster for Euro 2016.
Pašalić starting today for Monaco.
It’s remarkable how young this kid is, yet continues to find himself in the starting lineup on every team he plays for.
That is not anything new.
Our women will marry a cow if it means they we will have money to buy expense shoes and purses, unlike the fake stuff they walk around back in Cro right now.
Old Rich Russian Businessmen are coming over to Croatia and marrying young Croatian women.
Goal of the year. Give him the award.
Just when you think they’ve turned a corner, our Hajduk continues to find new and innovative ways to disappoint.
It’s like a Dalmatian version of the film Groundhog Day, but without the ultimate happy ending.
whats with all the croatian newspapers and portals? they all look more like us weekly and people magazine, more shit american celeb and nigger crap than even in america, fluff galore, I’m ready to join the Russians for civilization, and they have hotter chicks than croatia, way hotter.
That goal was sick, absolutely incredible.
Nice goal by another bosandzero.
By the way, if you are going to use a photo from the Istra-jadan, mali i nemocan hajduk game, use a photo from the actual game and not some file photo.
Omg. Amazing goal.
