Rijeka got the toughest possible group this season and they were really very good, above expectations.
In another group they would probably pass.
I was also surprised by the very good result of Dinamo this season.
After the departure of coach Bjelica and the best player Olmo, and all the problems and scandals with the Mamic brothers, I did not expect them to be so good.
However, due to the poor results of other Croatian clubs, Croatia will not have representatives in this competition next season, except maybe Dinamo.
Yeah, Rijeka really did fight bravely and they can still take some more points, which I hope they do as a revenge for 4-1 defeat. Dinamo is something weird this season, they really don't look that good to me, yet somehow they are wining and not conceding a single goal is almost like a mistery lol
As long as they manage to continue like that I won't mind honestly. Don't like Mamic, but I like Dinamo more, something along those lines.
I agree with you.
Even in Croatian national league Dinamo is not so good as last a few years but in the Europa league they are perfect.
Any way, if I can forget about their coach and his brother, I may even enjoy because of their results in Europe 😀
