As part of the 34th round, the last derby of the season between Dinamo and Hajduk awaits us at Maksimir tomorrow from 4 p.m. The match was announced by the guest coach Gonzalo Garcia.
The Uruguayan expert answered questions from journalists before the clash with a fierce rival that Hajduk has not beaten yet this season. The Blues celebrated twice, with one draw.
Garcia believes that his team can win and provide a better game than rivals.
I hope so. That’s our idea. We want to win. We didn’t deserve it before. In the first game, we were “okay”, but they punished us. In the second, they scored in stoppage time, but we didn’t deserve to win. In the last one, they were much better than us. This time we want to show a better game as we have proven we cansaid Garcia and continued, reports HRT.hr.
It will be difficult like every time. The energy must be on the level. It doesn’t matter that they have already secured the title. They are still going full force. We want to take points from them. We are safe in second place, but we want to win for us, for the fans. This is an important game for everyonehe added.
Journalists asked Garcia if this is the last derby for Marko Livaja and Anto Rebić.
I don’t know if it’s the last derby for them. I can’t see into the future.
It is necessary for Hajduk to turn to the new season and the European qualifications as soon as possible, and the Uruguayan believes that if they can play against Dinamo, then they can also play in Europe.
If you are a champion you have two chances in Europe. We must prepare as best we can. It’s difficult to start from the Conference League qualifiers because you have no right to make a mistake. if you get closer to Dinamo, you are closer to Europe. They play regularly in those competitions and if we can play against them, we can play in Europesaid the coach of Hajduk.
Garcia also addressed the journalists’ questions about whether he would support Dinamo in the cup, given that Dinamo’s victory would bring the club under Marjan qualification for the European League instead of the Conference League, but he also touched on the topic of the champion’s goal.
I can’t say that. If they win we will have a little more time, but I’m not rooting for anyone.
The club would make a decision about the fence. I hadn’t thought about it before, but it doesn’t matter. You surprised me, Garcia said shortly.
