Hajduk beat Slaven Belupo 2:1 in Koprivnica thanks to two late goals. Slaven Belupo scored for a lead after a penalty kick and Hajduk's captain Josip Juranović was sent off. However, coach Siniša Oreščanin's team produced an incredible comeback in the last minutes to win this match.
Head coach Siniša Oreščanin commented the match at his post-match press conference and said:
"I think that it was a good match of very high spirits, the home team had clear intention to spoil our plans. At the beginning we tried to adapt to it and I think we managed to do so, we controlled the match. In the first half we had some chances but our final third was not technically and tactically at the right level. We wanted to stay patient but then there was that penalty kick and Juranović was sent off so we had to change our plans. We wanted to score an equalizer and in the last moments we scored the winning goal as well, thanks to a team spirit and the right character of my squad. We kept attacking and it paid back to us".
