The article discusses a recent football match between Hajduk Split and Pafos, where Hajduk suffered a 4-0 defeat in the Europa League qualifiers, sending them to the Conference League. The former Hajduk goalkeeper and fan favorite, Vladimir Balić, criticizes the team's performance, particularly highlighting the lack of effort and poor decision-making by players under coach Gonzalo García. He specifically mentions Marko Livaja, the captain, who was substituted early in the game and questions why he was allowed to play at all. Balić suggests that internal conflicts within the club, especially between García and Livaja, have negatively impacted the team's performance and calls for resolution of these issues to improve both emotionally and results-wise.
