As Rijeka continues its search for the title, the tactical evolution under the new coach is becoming evident. The coach has taken over the current team and is currently applying his vision of the game in a way that empowers all players. By implementing a 4-3-3 formation, Rijeka focuses on quick breakthroughs and high pressing to take control of matches. This change has given players the freedom to experiment and express their individual talents, as long as they align with the collective strategy.

One of the key elements of this change is the role of midfielder, where A. Barco is showing incredible progress. His ability to spread the ball and open spaces is crucial to the success of the new coach's pilot projects. Besides Barco, Dominik Thaqi as the main forward plays a vital role, using his skills to break through to the opposing goal.

During the latest match, Rijeka faced two quick goals but reacted with the right mentality. The high pressing led to mistakes in the opposition's defense, allowing Rijeka to get back in the game. The coach emphasized their team spirit: "All players showed character and determination, which is crucial for our trophy fight." This tactic may help Rijeka not only equalize but also surpass current rivals.
