The players of Red Star drew in the second round of the group stage of the Champions League in the meeting with Young Boys (2:2), and the impressions after the match were expressed by the head of the professional staff, Barak Bahar.

- I'm disappointed that we didn't win, even though we had the advantage of the home field and a good flywheel at the beginning, but in the end it wasn't enough. We're disappointed and I'm sorry we didn't win for the fans. We should have played better throughout the game. When we lead, then we try to play smarter, and in the second half we conceded goals quickly and had to run more, which was not good. The end of the game was good, the bench players did their job. They are expected to change the situation on the field when they enter, and Katai is especially capable of that, as he helped a lot with the equalizer. We had a lot of mistakes, but that's all football. We have to focus more, because the Champions League does not forgive mistakes, which we saw today. We need to be more efficient - Bahar began.

He also referred to the Young Boys team, which left a good impression.

- A flexible team, we were ready for their various variations, even though they played differently from the one before. We started well, we adapted and before the first goal we really stood up as we should. After that we went too far back and were punished. The idea at halftime was to attack even more, but we pulled back and were penalized with two goals. We were close to winning, but it wasn't enough, but that's football.

Bahar believes that everything is still open, we have four games ahead of us.

- This is only the second game. We wanted to win three points, but all is not lost, because we have two matches with Leipzig and anything can happen.

Once again, Bahar praised the contribution from the bench.

- Like everyone from the bench, Kraso did a good job. And he, and Olanjinka, and Katai and Lucic, who was crucial in the equalization.

Unlucky penalty when Dzigo was hit in the hand by the ball.

- I didn't hold anything against Gigi, because he played well.

He is satisfied with how the trio in the middle performed.

- I don't think we lost the game in the middle of the pitch. Hwang, Stamenić and Ivanić also played strongly. Maybe the first goal came from the middle, but the second one came from the left flank. We have to fix it - concluded Bahar.
