Elvis Scoria has taken over from Ivan Katalinic as coach of Croatian side HNK Rijeka.

Cup final
The 33-year-old has stepped in following Katalinic's departure to take charge of Croatian giants HNK Hajduk Split. Scoria guided second division side NK Uljanik Pula to the 2003 Croatian Cup final, where they lost 5-0 on aggregate to Hajduk.

European prospects
Scoria has signed a one-year contract and will lead his side in Europe in his first season in the top flight. A third-placed finish in the league means Rijeka will be in the UEFA Cup in 2004/05. "There's lots of work ahead," said Scoria. "After an excellent season and reaching UEFA Cup, we want to show that we can continue to play successfully."
