“Dila” Gori arrived in Croatia from Aalborg and is preparing for the match against “Hajduk” Split. The match will take place on “Poljud” stadium (35000 spectators) on August 1. The Croatian press wrote about “Dila” and cited the words of Gia Isiani, manager of the club.

“It is good that we did not return to Georgia from Denmark. It is very hot in Croatia and we need time for adaptation. Giorgi Devdariani told me before the match in Denmark that it would be better to depart for Croatia straight ahead. We chose hotel on internet. Ivo Susak helped us. Conditions are good here but field is not good” – states Isiani.

Coaches and players of “Dila” and Isiani met two famous Croatians – Susak and Katusic.

Isiani has played for “Dinamo” Tbilisi for 14 years. Susak was a coach of “Dinamo” in 2002-2004.

Susak: “I am a great friend of Georgians. I have worked in Georgia for 3 years. Georgians are very hospitable people, like all other people living on seaside. The Black Sea is also a warm sea”.

Isiani said the Georgians can beat “Hajduk”. The match will start at 23:00 Tbilisi time on “Poljud” stadium on Thursday.
