Club career[edit]

He played as a centre back and central defensive midfielder but he was mostly deployed at left back. With Dinamo Zagreb he won 1966–67 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup. Brnčić was hailed as a player that could be put in any position in defense.[1]

International career[edit]

Brnčić made his debut for Yugoslavia in a September 1962 friendly match against Ethiopia, coming on as a 75th-minute substitute for Vlatko Marković, and earned a total of 10 caps scoring no goals. His final international was an October 1967 European Championship qualification match against West Germany.[2]

He competed for Yugoslavia at the 1964 Summer Olympics.[3]
