#SuperSport HNL

Arnel Jakupović, Osijek's latest million-euro signing, came off the bench to score in the 90th minute and sink Lokomotiva, with coach Bessone revealing he's considering starting two strikers.

Barcelona is considering signing the Croatian goalkeeper from Fenerbahçe and immediately loaning him to Dinamo for one season. A final answer is expected within seven days.

Jan-Henrik Børslid, a journalist for Norwegian TV2, criticized Zagreb's stadium and then sunbathed shirtless on Ban Jelačić Square, earning a warning from two police officers.

The Croatian goalkeeper wants to leave Fenerbahçe, and Turkish insiders claim Barcelona has shown concrete interest. Dinamo is still waiting, but the fee is too high for the Blues.

Bertrand Layec and his team analyzed five disputed situations, including three red cards and two penalty kicks, and backed the referees' calls.

Michele Šego scored in just the third minute following an assist from Rokas Pukštas, with VAR checking for a potential offside in the early goal for the Split side.

Dinamo's coach announced squad rotations for the clash with Rudeš, confirmed Luka Stojković's absence due to injury, and gave full support to goalkeepers Nevistić and Zagorac following Filipović's suspension.

The disciplinary judge of the SuperSport HNL has announced sanctions for Round 2: Hajduk was ordered to pay a total of €10,000 for racism, discrimination, and pyrotechnics in the match against Istra 1961, while Lokomotiva was fined €700 for unsportsmanlike conduct.

Zagreb police will use audio-video devices at the stadium and on approach routes before, during, and after Sunday's SuperSport HNL clash.

Nail Omerović leads the scoring charts with four goals in two matches, and Osijek has already scored nearly a third of last season's total after just 180 minutes.

Hajduk defends a 5-2 lead from Vilnius against Žalgiris at Poljud on Wednesday. Coach Gonzalo Garcia and captain Toni Silić have announced a fight for victory despite the heat and fatigue.

Istra 1961 striker speaks out about the refereeing controversy at Poljud: 'Silić grabbed Maurić's leg, it was a clear penalty. It's unbelievable that VAR didn't intervene in either situation.'

The returnee from Lokomotiva has become one of the standout players at the start of the SuperSport HNL season, particularly shining against Hajduk.

Armando León arrived at Opus Arena as an unknown from the Andorran league, but after two goals in his first start, he has become the headline story of the season's start. Interest from other clubs already exists, and Osijek could lose him in the winter.

The Referee Commission has released an analysis of three situations from the matches Lokomotiva - Gorica and Hajduk - Istra 1961, highlighting VAR lapses and the need for stricter sanctions.

After the dispute with Varaždin over ticket prices, the new season brings a new potential controversy. Hajduk visits Velika Gorica on Sunday, and the away fan ticket price is higher than the usual agreement.
