Hajduk secured their first win of the new SHNL season in Velika Gorica, and coach Gonzalo Garcia didn't hold back in criticizing the slow pace of the domestic league compared to European competitions.

The Split side hosts Žalgiris at Poljud with a massive 5:2 lead from the first leg, and a place in the Conference League playoff would be their first since the 22/23 season and the clash with Villarreal.
