Before that match, there was a defeat against Hajduk, and Dinamo’s management decided to sack Dinamo. He talked about the experience from that match in the show “The Other Side of the Medal” on the MAXSport channel.
– The biggest joke was when the GPS report after Bayern arrived after the game. People were rockets, they were three times better in everything. Realistically, when you look at the game, we could have conceded fifteen goals. It’s funny to me when I listen to my colleagues explaining in studios or privately… Guys, are you normal? Well, I can’t explain it to you when you weren’t at that level – Jakirović said, then continued:
– I see from the bench some space that is not defended, but Thomas Muller also sees it and drops the ball there. But even today, I shudder when I remember the feeling when we reduced the score to 3-1, then to 3-2, get your hopes up, Pjaca has a chance to make it 3-3… On the other hand, it’s as if we pissed them off.

After that, he told what the conversation with Bayern coach Vincent Kompany was like after the game:
– Kompany told me after the game: ‘Congratulations on the great success and entering the Champions League.’ When he walked towards me, I told him: ‘I don’t know if the difference is really that big’, and pointed to the traffic light. He congratulated me once again and added that three months ago he was relegated with Burnley to the Championship. I’m getting goosebumps just saying that. He cheered me up a little as hard as I was. It’s hard, it’s a lot of 9:2, what are we talking about? It’s my fault, I’ll take it all on myself, but I’m not playing. I don’t know how to explain it to you. We think to ourselves that we can change something, but you can’t – said Jakirović.
After Dinamo, Jakirović went to Kayserispor, where he stayed for five months and left the club in the most elite level of the competition. Then came the invitation of Hull City from the English Championship, which the former coach of Gorica, Rijeka and Dinamo accepted and is in 15th place with 12 points.
