Čop: I don't know why Rijeka didn't come to the game

Hat-trick scorer Duje Čop was the man everyone were waiting for after the game.

Duje scored a real hat-trick because he scored three goals in a row, one with each foot and the third one was a header: - This is my first hat-trick in career so it's only natural I'm very happy. As for the derby match as the press called it, I must admit I didn't see that today - said Čop and explained with a smile on his face: - We've completely crushed Rijeka and this was no derby. I simply haven't seen the Rijeka from the newspapers in the last few days; I don't know why they didn't come to the game. There is only one real derby in Croatia and that's the one that is played next week in Split.

- We are the defending champions and the current leaders so we intend to stay here - said Čop and then turned focus to the next game in Split: - The game when Dinamo plays away at Split is the only one in Croatia where the outcome is unknown; that is the real derby match. I hope there will be a lot of people on the match, great atmosphere and we will win.
