Ćiro Blažević once said that the worst scoreline in football is 2–0. Once again, the old master was right.
Sometimes a coach simply cannot manufacture what the squad doesn’t possess.
Hajduk throwing away a winning position is hardly a surprise anymore. The real surprise was that they managed to build a 2–0 lead in the first place.
Looking back, perhaps the first leg wasn’t a sign of strength. Maybe it was simply Pafos having an unusually generous evening.
The return leg restored the natural order of things.
Bilić. Graf. Garcia. Thank you… Four times ❤️
