Two days after a 9-2 beating by Bayern Munich in the Champions League Dinamo Zagreb has fired coach Sergej Jakirović.

If a team endures a terrible run of form, then sacking the coach is a viable option if that club wants to turn their fortunes around. In the case of Dinamo Zagreb coach Sergej Jakirović, that was his fate as he was given the sack by his club after a crushing 9-2 defeat to Bayern Munich on the first day of the Champions League: This is not the first time that Bayern handed out a defeat to another team which culminated in sacking their coach.

Dinamo Zagreb manager Sergej Jakirovic left the club by mutual agreement on Thursday, two days after his shell-shocked side's 9-2 defeat at Bayern Munich which set the record for the most goals scored by one team in a Champions League match.
