The red and whites opened this game attractively, with an attempt by Jovanović from 30 meters away after a great "double" pass with Krstic, but his powerful shot with the tips of his fingers was turned into a corner by Bogdanović. Papović on the right flank caused big problems for the defenders of the visiting team, they could not match his speed, which constantly gave Zvezda an advantage in attack. We saw exactly such an attack in the 14th minute of the match, when the right back of Zvezda "rumbled" on the flank, and then threw the ball into the box, but the defenders of Vojvodina reacted well.
Aleksandar Linta's players took advantage of the opening field initiative, and with a great combination of Krstić and the scorer of the leading goal - Dušan Jovanović, they took the lead in the 19th minute of the match. Krstić was played by Mrvaljević, and Zvezda's forward saw fantastically from the right flank and then played Dusan Jovanović, who remained calm enough to accurately pass the ball into the undefended part of the net.
In the 27th minute, the red and whites got another chance with a counterattack through Zarić. The fast-footed winger played past Jovanovic, who passed the pass to Krstic, and then with a phenomenal defense, Bogdanovic prevented the red and whites from reaching the second goal of the game.
Papović had the first opportunity in the second half for Crvena zvezda, who used his quickness and escaped the "keepers" once again. However, Bogdanović reacted perfectly in the 100% chance, and Zvezda's right back made a phenomenal save with his shin. Mrvaljević threatened with a shot in the 57th minute on a great cross from Strike, but the midfielder of our team was almost inaccurate.
Immediately after entering the field, forward Damjanović was a threat to the opponent's net, but his shot from the edge of the penalty area lacked a little more power. The red and whites controlled the game in both directions until the end, and they calmly brought the game to an end for another three points.
