Player ratings: Dinamo Zagreb v Hearts

Aug 21 2009 Gary Ralston

Marian Kello 5
Keeper was at fault for first goal, none too clever at second and poor distribution often put his team in trouble.

Eggert Jonsson 5
Dinamo made hay down either flank as full-backs forced time and again on to back foot with little forward outlets.

Ismael Bouzid 4
Too many rash tackles in and around the penalty box but almost impossible task trying to stem Croatian tide.

Marius Zaliukas 5
Tried so hard to bring organisation and order to defensive line, but they were under too much strain.

Lee Wallace 5
Not even Lee with his pop gun and William with his broadsword could not have stopped Dinamo.

Suso Santana 4
A defensive liability and offered little protection in front of Jonsson. Created little of note out wide on the right wing.

Ruben Palazuelos 5
Put his foot here and tried to plug a gap there but ultimately offered no assistance by those further forward.

Michael Stewart 5
Crowded out time and time again and whenever he looked to pick a pass the options simply were not available.

Jose Goncalves 4
Never looked comfortable in possession and rarely linked positively with Wallace before switch to defence.

David Obua 3
Admittedly played in unfamiliar role, but offered nothing as the big occasion left him shell-shocked.

Christian Nade 3
As mobile up front as a block of granite. Is he fit enough to plough lone furrow?

Substitutes:

Ian Black 3
Brought on at half-time but was unable to make any meaningful contribution as Jambos capitulated.

Gary Glen 3
Could do little as Nade replacement as Dinamo turned the screw.
