Pioneers of Hajduk celebrated their Croatian league title victory after defeating Rudeš 4-0 in the final match of the season at Poljud. The young Hajduk team, led by coach Roko Španjić, secured the title ahead of Dinamo. The game was watched by 19-year-old Luka Vušković, Croatia's most expensive player.
The victory was sealed in the first half. Mihovil Žilić opened the scoring in the fourth minute, followed by Toma Vukašin's goal in the 15th minute, putting Hajduk 2-0 up. Žilić doubled his tally in the 36th minute, extending the lead to 3-0, and Vjeran Mihanović added the fourth goal in the 61st minute.
Luka Vušković on the Sidelines
The decision on the league title was watched by Luka Vušković, who had played the full match for HSV against Bayer Leverkusen in the last round of the Bundesliga, which ended in a 1-1 draw. The Croatian international played in Germany on Saturday and was in Split for the celebration on Sunday.
This is likely Vušković's last appearance for the Hamburg club, as his contract is expiring. He will be returning to Tottenham in the summer, where he has yet to make an official appearance. Before that, he will play for Croatia at the FIFA World Cup in the USA, Canada, and Mexico.
Luka Vušković's journey is a rollercoaster, from being the most expensive player in Hajduk's history to potentially leaving the club. How will he perform at the World Cup with Croatia? This is a must-watch for all football fans!
