Milson entered this duel visibly motivated, with a great desire to continue with great games in the Red Star jersey. Already after 180 seconds from the referee's first whistle, he shot obliquely from the left flank with an "inside shot", and the ball "roared" a few centimeters over the goal, which was being defended by Popović. The first shot into the home team's goal was sent from the edge of the penalty area by Dalsio, who shot hard and on the ground, but the goalkeeper of the team from Karaburma managed to save his attempt. In the 22nd minute of the match, Elšnik cleverly entered the middle from the side, and then surprised the home team's defense with a shot from distance, but the result did not change.

The young goalkeeper of our team - Guteša, reacted phenomenally on several occasions in the first quarter of the game, and once again confirmed the great quality he possesses. In transition, in a way only he knows how, Katai outplayed Silas, who was unstoppable in a full run towards the goal of OFK Belgrade, and in front of the penalty area he "broke" the keeper by dribbling directly, but his final shot was blocked. The red and white could take the lead in the 39th minute after a great collaboration between Kanga and Milson, after which the Angolan sent Katai on the edge of the box, but Zvezda's Magico was unable to "set" his foot well enough in the crowd, and the ball ended up near the home team's goal. .

The coach of our team changed at halftime, and introduced Endiaje, Djiga and Prutsev into the game, wouldn't that bring additional freshness and quickness to the game of Red Star. In the continuation of this derby meeting, reserve player Endiaje creatively combined with Milson, and then shot, but his attempt ended up over the home team's goal. Dalsio threatened with a shot from distance in the 58th minute, after a pass from Katai, but it was almost inaccurate. Endiaye was an unsolvable enigma for the defenders of the team from Karaburma, and only a minute later he sent a shot from the penalty area to a sharp pass from Milson from the sideline, which flew just past the post. Zvezda reached the desired advantage in the 66th minute of the game, and the scorer was our team's stopper - Stefan Leković. After a huge crowd in the home team's penalty area, the ball reached Kanga, who sent a "parallel" to the other side of the penalty area, and Leković found himself there, who had no difficulty checking Popović with his head.

After a nice move by Red Star, Endiaje put the ball away for Zvezda Magic, who was on the run, and then shot inertly with a "full", but his shot from distance ended up over the crossbar of Popović's goal. Vladan Milojević continued to make changes, and introduced the young Maksimović to the field, who entered instead of Katai in the 79th minute of the match. Two minutes later, after a pass from Luka Ilic, Milson managed to shake the OFK Belgrade net, but it was ruled offside. Until the end of the match, Red Star controlled the game and managed to get the important three points on a difficult visit.
