Maksimović: With a full Maracana and fans, anything is possible

- I'm not nervous, I knew this was waiting for me one day. The Champions League at our stadium in front of full stands is something that every player dreams of, so I can't wait to get on the field against Barcelona - Maksimović pointed out.

The midfielder of our team touched a well-known nickname.

- I was nicknamed "little" because of my hair, but as I said recently - I want everyone to know and remember me by my first and last name. I'm Andrija Maksimović, I'm not Messi, but I have to point out that he is my idol and I enjoy watching him and following his games.

Maksimović has played two games in the Champions League so far, and tomorrow he will play for the first time in the most prestigious European competition at the Maracana.

- Against Inter, it was my debut in the Champions League and that's when I realized that I can play high-intensity matches, while in Monaco it was a specific game, but I gave my best even there. Tomorrow is still a special day, because I will play in the Champions League against Barcelona in front of a full Maracana, and I think that everything is possible in front of our fans .

Maksimović also spoke about his acquaintance with Jamal.

- We met last year at the Cadet European Championship, Barcelona's stopper - Kubarsi played alongside him. They are great players. I'm ready to show tomorrow that I'm better than Jamal, and at the end of the match I was planning to ask him to switch jerseys.

The young and talented footballer scored the first goal in the domestic championship against Vojvodina in a phenomenal way, and revealed how much that goal means to him for the continuation of the season.

- The goal against Vojvodina means a lot for my confidence, because it is my first goal in the Super League. I was aiming for a goal and I managed to score - concluded Maksimović.
