V. Dambrauskas's "Hajduk" defeats champions and preserves theoretical chances to fight for the title © JumpStory

Valdo Dambrauskas led Split's "Hajduk" team to a great result on Wednesday evening, defeating the current Croatian champions, Zagreb's "Dinamo" team, 1-0 at home. The winning goal was scored by Nikola Kalinic, who has had a successful career abroad, in the 63rd minute after a pass from Dino Mikanovic.

Following this victory, the battle for the Croatian champions title is far from over. The top three teams are separated by 4 points with 5 rounds left until the end of the championship. "Hajduk", in any case, should already achieve its best result in the past 4 years - at least third place in the Croatian "HNL" championship.

Hajduk Split, by beating league leaders D. Zagreb 1-0 with Kalinic's goal at Poljud yesterday, kept their claim to the championship very alive with 5 weeks remaining in the season. In the last week of the season, these two arch-rivals will once again face each other, this time at Maksimir.🔥
