Elšnik: I fulfilled my boyhood dream, played for Zvezda in front of a full Maracana

- Full Maracana, I experienced that too... Those are dreams, that's why I came to Red Star, to fulfill everything I dreamed about and to play in the Champions League. Four more games with a full Maracana, and let any opponent come, I'm not thinking about that. I came out through the tunnel, full of Maracana, literally like I got wings. I also saw the Bode players - it was not easy for them. I think they were really surprised by the atmosphere created by the stars. The fans helped us a lot. Bode is a good team, but this is the Maracana, it's not the same as in Norway - began Elšnik.

A different game than in Norway...

- The atmosphere scared them, they were not comfortable. We came out high, the pitch didn't suit them either. They were really insecure in defense, the goalkeeper lost a couple of balls. It gave us confidence. They did not kick on goal for 60 minutes. On top of all that, it started to rain, after a month in Belgrade, just when we needed it. She refreshed us, we were able to run more - the Slovenian representative will say with a smile.
