Dinamo Zagreb has gone through a thorny path to the group stage of the Champions League, knocking out three teams already. Matches with Shkupi (2:2 and 1:0) and Ludogorets (2:1 and 4:2) ended in class, but the confrontation with Bodo-Glimt turned out to be much more interesting. After the away defeat 0:1, they managed to brace themselves and score four times at home (4:1). In the domestic championship, only eight rounds have passed, but the gap is already significant and amounts to eight points. The Croatian giant concedes in almost every match, but has exorbitant performance in attack. 27 goals were scored in eight fights and Orsic took part in nine of them. In this transfer window, the Zagreb team has traditionally made good money. Franjic went to Wolfsburg and Jakic to Eintracht, bringing in more than ten million euros. An experienced Josip Drmic was signed to the attacking line, which can be useful in the main European Cup tournament.
Chelsea failed to enter the title race in the last season of the English Premier League and be content with only a small amount of space. But even this was enough for a direct hit in the group stage of the Champions League. Nevertheless, the season for the Londoners is not very pleasant, because in six rounds to zero they met only with Everton (1:0). Of course, the results also declined and the team was relegated to the sixth outlet. Of course, at home the piggy bank is fulfilled, but here on the road there are two exits in a row. Even with the modest Southampton (1:2), Sterling quickly opened the scoring, but the opponents took the lead in the first half. The problem is that it was not possible to arrange the final assault on the gates of the “saints”. In the summer market, the “aristocrats” worked very productively. Quite reliable Fofana and Koulibaly came to replace Ruediger and Christensen. We would also like to note the arrival of Cucurella and Aubameyang, who signed a contract in the last days of August.
