Croatian champions Dinamo Zagreb completed another domestic double defeating Slaven Belupo in the Cup final.

Dinamo Zagreb recently secured 11th consecutive league title, and on Tuesday Zoran Mamić's men beat Slaven Belupo 2:1 in Cup final in Osijek.

Pjaca scored from the penalty spot after half an hour to give Dinamo the lead, while Ejupi equalized for the Koprivnica team in 61st minute.

With 15 minutes left, Rog's long-range effort found its way past Slaven's goalie Rozman and ended up in the back of the net to decide the outcome.

"This wasn't easy, but our victory is well deserved. Slaven Belupo is to be complimented, they were organized, compact and waiting for our mistake. I am extremely happy and proud to be a part of the tenth Dinamo's double, just as I was the part of the first one. Congratulations to my team and our fans", said Dinamo head coach Mamić.

"It was a good match. I don't want to celebrate defeats, but I'm proud of my players and the entire season. Congratulations to Dinamo, and thank you to everyone who supported us. Dinamo did not panic after our equalizer, despite the fact that thing were going our was. I am not mad, just sad, but these things happen. I demand of my players to give their all, and we were not dominated, proving that we do some quality work in Koprivnica", added Slaven Belupo head coach Željko Kopić.
