A tight, tactical affair at Stadion Poljud saw Hajduk Split and Dinamo Zagreb locked in a goalless draw. Both teams played well, exhibiting strong defensive discipline, but lacked the cutting edge in the final third.
Hajduk Split, despite having a lower possession percentage (47% compared to Dinamo Zagreb's 53%), demonstrated a tenacious approach, creating several chances, especially through shots outside the box (2 vs. 7 from Dinamo Zagreb). They pressed relentlessly and caused Dinamo Zagreb discomfort, earning eight fouls, though none were converted into clear-cut scoring opportunities.
Dinamo Zagreb, while holding possession for a large portion of the game and registering significantly more shots (9 vs. 5), struggled to penetrate Hajduk's compact defense. Their offensive strategy, focused largely on shots outside the box, wasn't particularly effective.
The most exciting moments came in the second half, as substitutions stirred up the play. The substitutions, however, did not result in any goals.
Ultimately, both sides were worthy of credit for a hard-fought and engaging contest, but a lack of finishing proved crucial, ending in a 0-0 score.
