Dinamo head coach Ivaylo Petev decided to rotate first eleven and made five changes in comparison to last Wednesday's Champions League match versus Juventus. Benković and Sosa featured in defense, while Ivan Fiolić got the chance as laft winger ahead of Ante Ćorić. And 20-year old attacking midfielder shined throughtout the match against his former club.
