4 Croatian Clubs in UEFA Europa League Play Offs

There will be four Croatian clubs in the UEFA Europa League play-off draw in Lyon tomorrow…

All three Croatian clubs in action tonight have done the job and progressed through to the 4th qualifying round and are now just 180 minutes away from guaranteed European football in the autumn. Hajduk Split managed to turn around a 2-4 deficit from the first leg to beat Shakhter Karagandy at Poljud stadium 3-0, whilst RNK Split protected their 2-0 first leg advantage over Chornomorets Odessa and played out a goalless draw in Ukraine. NK Rijeka made light work of Vikingur, winning 4-0 at home. Dinamo Zagreb, eliminated in Champions League qualifying on Wednesday night, will join the three Croatian clubs in the draw on Friday.
