Slaven Belupo – Hibernians 3-0
Saturday, June 27 2004
NK Slaven Belupo ended Hibernians’ Intertoto Cup hopes in the first round with a fine win in the second leg in Croatia.
A 2-1 win in the first leg last week gave the Maltese side hope but VRUNICA’s goal after 15 minutes started the slide.
VISKOVIC doubled the lead after 76 minutes, converting a penalty kick. MIJATOVIC wrapped things up with one minute from time.
Hibernians had hoped to progress into the second round of the Intertoto Cup.
But they were left to rue the fact they failed to make the most of their chances in the first leg as their Croatian hosts stamped their authority in the return at the Koprivnica Stadium.
