Pjaca makes an immediate impact after coming off the bench as he gets past Elabdellaoui down the left for a brief second, before the Olympiacos full-back recovers in the nick of time.

Dinamo Zagreb get us under way here at the Stadion Maksimir in the capital of Croatia. The man in charge of the cards for tonight's encounter is Paolo Tagliavento from Italy.
Good evening and welcome to our LIVE text commentary of tonight's UEFA Champions League clash between Dinamo Zagreb and Olympiacos from the Stadion Maksimir. I'm Matthew Judge and I will be your host for the match, which kicks off at 7:45pm.
Tonight's fixture in the Croatian capital is massive for both teams' hopes of reaching the knockout stage. With Group F strugglers Arsenal facing Bayern Munich in their next two Champions League games, whoever can take control of this match - and the reverse fixture - will stand in good stead on paper to reach the last 16.
TEAM NEWS: Marco Silva has made three alterations to the side which started Olympiacos' last match against AEK Athens. Elabdellaoui, Fortounis and Pardo all get the chance to impress from the first whistle tonight.
Dinamo Zagreb have tasted defeat just once in their last 48 games and are therefore coming into tonight's contest with huge confidence under their belt. Olympiacos aren't doing too badly either, winning their last five games in all competitions including an away win against Arsenal.
TEAM NEWS: Zoran Mamic has made five changes to the side which started Dinamo Zagreb's last match against Zagreb in the Croatian top flight. Matel, Antolic, Pivaric, Rog and Soudani all come into the first eleven for tonight's affair on home soil.
Both sets of players are stripped and raring to go as they leave the tunnel and enter onto the field here in Croatia. We are just moments away from seeing the action start to unfold.
HALF TIME: DINAMO ZAGREB 0-0 OLYMPIACOS
It's honours even here in Croatia as both sides head down the tunnel for the half time interval, with the scoreline 0-0. Zagreb started the better of the two teams but Olympiacos were on top before the referee called time on the first half.
Soudani was a real bright spark in the first 15 to 20 minutes for Zagreb, particularly with his cross-field passing to try and exploit Olympiacos' narrow backline, but Olympiacos' Masuaku was the standout performer in the latter stages of the opening 45 minutes.
FULL TIME: DINAMO ZAGREB 0-1 OLYMPIACOS
In a very even game in Croatia, Ideye steals the points for Olympiacos as he strikes late on in the second half to hand the Greek side a crucial three points. Back-to-back wins from them in Group F.
That's all from me, Matthew Judge, and it has been a great pleasure talking you through all of tonight's action. We hope you can join us again very soon. Take care!
