The Red Star, led from the bench by Barak Bahar, plays atomic football, and after a convincing victory over Fiorentina with a score of 5:0, the Israeli expert had plenty of reasons to be satisfied, as well as the star players who left the stadium smiling.

- I am happy that we played this game and because of how we looked on the field. We want the fans to be happy with the way we are playing, but this is just the beginning, because despite being happy with the results in the preparations, we only have an official game on Sunday. Of course, we try to continue in this rhythm - Bahar began.

However, Bahar believes that there is a lot of room for improvement.

- We want to progress, to make it even better, with greater intensity. We are still in preparation, the minutes are divided, nobody has played 90 minutes, and on Sunday, six players will play the entire match. We are chasing form and we have to continue like that.

Zvezda is decorated with a combination of youth and experience.

- I like the mix of experienced and young players we have in the team and I like to combine them. We work with young people, we want them to learn, not only from the older players, but also from the coaching staff and I am happy to see them improve. My job, and the job of my coaching staff, is to decide who will be on the field that day. There are still many games, there will be space.

Bahar does not want to talk about potential reinforcements.

- As far as reinforcements are concerned, I would not talk about it here, I will talk to the general director Zvezdan Terzić about it.

He also explained the decision to choose Bukari as the penalty taker.

- Bukari deserved to take the penalty. I saw how hard he works, he adapts to his new role and works hard. He deserved to shoot and score.

Bahar's philosophy is clear - 90 minutes of good play.

- I want to improve the team in the next matches. We won convincingly, I don't divide the game into segments, but look at it as a whole, like 90 minutes. I want us to be even stronger, for the intensity to be greater.

The focus is exclusively on the next game.

- Expectations exist, and we can't control that, but I'm not afraid. We have to continue working, to prepare for Vojvodina, for me that is the most important thing. We only watch the next game.

As a tennis fan, Bahar joked that by scoring the sixth goal, Zvezda would win the set, following the example of Novak Djokovic.

- We wanted six goals, the boys stopped, maybe in the next one.

He did not want to apostrophize the player of the match, although it is clear that there are many candidates.

- It is difficult to choose a player after a game like this. I can't choose just one, that's a journalist's job.

No doubt the fans went home smiling.

- I was excited when I went out on the field, I felt the support, the fans are satisfied and I believe that soon the Maracana will be filled to capacity. We play football that attracts the crowd, there will be more and more fans.

He also spoke about the Champions League and what awaits us there.

- Fiorentina is a good team, the plan is for Zvezda to look like this in the Champions League, but there is time for that. For now, we are focused on the start of the championship. I don't like to compare us with anyone, every game is a story for itself, we will analyze all this, we will see what is good and what we can improve - underlined Bahar.
