Sjajno predstavljanje: Bilić, Krovinović i Šunjić krenuli gostujućim pobjedama

Lijep početak sezone za Hrvate u Championshipu. I West Bromwich Albion i Birmingham bili su uspješni i prvom kolu i to u gostima.

Bilićev WBA slavio je kod Nottinghama s 2:1 u otvorenom susretu u kojem je bilo prilika na obje strane. Sva tri pogotka pala su u prvom poluvremenu.

That Krovinovic is some player. Can we buy him now? #wba #coyb— Ian Cotterill (@IanTheSolution) August 3, 2019

Nottingham je stigao do vodstva u osmoj minuti golom Mattyja Casha, međutim do odlaska na odmor West Brom napravio je potpuni preokret.

Prvo je u 15. minuti Kyle Edwards zabio za 1:1, a deset minuta kasnije WBA radi potpuni preokret i Matt Phillips zabija za 2:1.

Great game, bar the first 10 mins we totally bossed it.
Edwards ?? sawyers ?? Ferguson ???? Krovinovic ?? back line looked fantastic even stronger with Hegazi there and just need a striker light in that department for certain although I’m not gonna judge Zohore just yet #WBA— carl bowen (@carlbowen2) August 3, 2019

Do kraja promjena nije bilo, a Filip Krovinović odigrao je cijelu utakmicu.

Birmingham je u gostima slavio kod Brentforda uz teški bunker svih 90 minuta. No, cilj opravdava sredstvo, a pogodak Pedersena iz 18. minute bio je dovoljan za pobjedu. Za goste je debitirao Ivan Šunjić koji je ušao u igru u 72. minuti.
