The overall defensive discipline and determination displayed by both teams were admirable, with no red cards shown during the game.

Although drawing the game, both teams showed disciplined performances, manifested in the low number of fouls committed. Nonetheless, NK Lokomotiva Zagreb ought to revisit their set-piece efficiency and discipline as these were crucial factors that may have transformed the draw into a win.
