Head coach Mamić at the press conference

After a national team break Modri are coming back to the games, and the first in line is a city derby with Zagreb. Dinamo's coach Zoran Mamić announced the game at the press conference.

- Zagreb is an opponent which has been giving us plenty of trouble lately, although we've played very well in the last game. We are aware of the situation in the national championship and we know that our opponents are getting better with time. That is the reason why we can't afford us any mistake. We have a lot of issues in the team - injuries, suspensions, and the fact that the pitch is flooded so it is really hard to train – said the coach adding – Pavičić played already for B team and he will also play this weekend, while Schildenfeld is still focused on the individual training session. Pinto has recovered and he will be ready for the game vs Zagreb.

Regarding Sigali, he has returned to Zagreb, but he has not yet started with training: - Considering the situation with the flooded pitch and tough training conditions, the risk of putting Sigali in the training process is too big risk for us. He has individual training sessions and his physical condition is very good, but we will think about the time when he will be ready. Knee injuries tend to be very complicated and we do not want to risk anything.

Dinamo can not count on Ademi while he is under UEFA investigation: - In five days, on October 20, Ademi needs to be in Switzerland for a doping control and B sample. I don't know when we will recieve the final report. In situation where we have lot of issues in the last line, it is clear that his absence is a problem for us. Unfortunately, we can't change this situation. This is not easy for him too, especially because he says that he didn't take any of prohibited substances. He is sad and disappointed because something like this is happening.

The coach also commented the next game - the Champions League match against Olympiacos: - I don't like to speak ahead and ''skip games'', but I would like to appeal the media to put the matchagainst Olympiacos in the focus because it is a great Champions league game. I would like to see lots of fans and a spectacle at Maksimir stadium. Olympiacos is a high-quality team and a really good opponent. I am fascinated with them, with their performance and discipline and I am fascinated with their games I am analyzing - concluded Dinamo's coach.

The game against Zagreb starts at 18:00, and the prices are: 10kn North stand, 20kn East stand and 30kn West stand.

See you at Maksimir!
