Hajduk coach Gonzalo Garcia was highly critical after his team's 2:1 loss to Varazdin in the first round of the SuperSport HNL. He acknowledged the poor performance in the first half, describing it as 'terrible,' and noted the team played much better in the second half but still lost due to defensive errors. Garcia explained that Nike Sigur wasn't in the lineup not because of injury but due to caution after feeling unwell during the match against Paphos. He highlighted issues with fatigue, creativity, and player availability, noting the demanding schedule forced players into unnatural positions. Garcia criticized the two goals conceded, calling them 'stupid' mistakes, and mentioned the club is seeking new players despite challenges like injuries and a tight schedule. He expressed confidence in young player Šotić and emphasized the need for improvement ahead of future matches.
