Hapoel Be'er Sheva Outplays Dinamo Zagreb in Europa League Draw
Hapoel Be'er Sheva began their Europa League campaign with a 0-0 draw against Dinamo Zagreb in Romania, a result that left the Israeli club feeling disappointed due to their superior performance. Croatian media outlets acknowledged that Hapoel Be'er Sheva displayed more effective football than Dinamo Zagreb, despite the Croatian champions starting the match stronger.
According to reports, Dinamo Zagreb struggled to create significant scoring opportunities, allowing Hapoel Be'er Sheva to control possession and seek chances on the counter-attack. The Israeli team hit the woodwork once and forced Dinamo's goalkeeper, Dominik Livaković, into making several crucial saves. In contrast, Dinamo Zagreb had very few clear chances throughout the game.
Croatian media described Dinamo Zagreb's performance as another weak showing, noting that the team was fortunate to avoid a loss. They spent much of the match defending and managed to secure a clean sheet, earning their first point in the competition. Reports highlighted that Dinamo Zagreb, considered the favorite on paper, did not live up to expectations on the field, with the crossbar and their goalkeeper ultimately saving them from defeat.
