Dinamo Zagreb v Atalanta Live Commentary, 9/18/19

After an end-to-end game of football, Zagreb take all three points from their opening Champions League fixture. The hosts took the lead 10 minutes into the first half when Stojanovic’s cross from the right was converted by Leovac at close range. Bjelica’s team continued to push and eventually doubled their lead through Orsic’s smart finish from the edge of the box after 31 minutes. Orsic then grabbed his second and Zagreb’s third seven minutes before half time when he nodded Ademi’s headed pass across goal into the top right corner. The Croatian would secure his hat-trick after latching onto a Theophile-Catherine pass on 68 minutes, before some resolute defending would seal the points in the closing stages of the game.
