Dinamo B footballers have secured their first victory in pre-season preparations for the new season in the Croatian First League. The young Maksimir players in their third friendly appearance, the first away from Maksimir, defeated Zagorec in Krapina 4-1.

The hosts led 1-0 at half-time after Filip Jagartec found the net practically at the opening of the match, already in the 6th minute. Coach Jerko Leko's team turned the result around in the second half.

Two consecutive goals were scored by Mislav Ćutuk, first he ran clear of the goalkeeper in the 64th minute and equalised without difficulty, while six minutes later he reacted cleverly in the scramble in front of goal after Ayoub Abdallah Makhfaoui and Tomas Baković had combined. The third goal was scored in the 84th minute by Makhfaoui with a skilful move, while three minutes later Ćutuk curled in from the right, and Jona Benkotić deflected the ball into the goal for Dinamo's fourth strike.
