Steady rain fell over HNK Rijeka stadium as the team prepared for training, highlighting the intensity of their efforts to refine their tactics. Rijeka has promoted a more offensive approach in recent matches. Their new system, which includes Dominik Thaqi and S. Vignato in more attacking roles, creates increased goal-scoring opportunities. For instance, in the last match against Hajduk, they combined quick passing and pressing, resulting in two scored goals.
