Crvena zvezda was defeated by Milan 2-1 in the sixth round of the Champions League group stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The impression is that Zvezda did not look bad on the pitch, but despite the fight and desire, they failed to get any new points in the elite competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Zvezda entered the match quite calmly, and in the fourth minute, we saw the first minor excitement, when \u0110iga corrected Mimovi\u0107’s mistake, thereby preventing Leao from passing towards Zvezda’s goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just three minutes later, Davide Calabria created an excess, and then shot poorly after a return pass. Uro\u0161 Spaji\u0107 responded in the next minute, when he positioned himself and fired from a distance, but was not accurate enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The home team had their first serious chance in the 14th minute when Leao broke down the right flank past \u0110iga and shot from an angle, but Gute\u0161a was focused on the goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then, in the 18th minute, Zvezda almost took the lead. Milson passed well, played in \u0160erif, who lowered the ball in front of Maksimovi\u0107, and the popular Messi hit only the crossbar.
In the middle of the first half, there were problems for the hosts, as Fonseca had to make two changes. First, in the 28th minute, Loftus Cheek left the game, to be replaced by Chukwueze, and two minutes later, Morata also had to leave, and was replaced by Tammy Abraham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then, at the end of the first half, the home side took the lead. In the 43rd minute, Rafael Leao received the ball over the defense, managed to escape Spaji\u0107 and \u0110iga, to receive the ball and exploit Gute\u0161a’s weaker judgment, and hammer the ball into the net on the run, for Milan’s lead at halftime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vladan Milojevi\u0107’s chosen ones entered the second half well, which was also started by Mirko Ivani\u0107, who replaced Milson. So, in the 47th minute, Mimovi\u0107 entered from an angle, and had a good situation, when he shot after a cross, but Menion closed the near corner well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
