Red Star footballers will take to the field against Young Boys tonight at 21:00 in the second round of the group stage of the Champions League, and we have several interesting anniversaries ahead of us.
This will be Zvezda's 100th game in the Champions League, not counting the qualification for the elite club competition. However, the potential triumph would be the 49th for the red and whites, so we will still have to wait for the anniversary of 50 triumphs in the Champions League. In any case, we are four goals away from the jubilee and 200 goals scored by Zvezda in the Champions League, not counting the qualifiers.
If we also count the qualifications, then it will be the 153rd match for Zvezda in the Champions League, but in case of victory, our team would reach the 71st triumph in total. This would lead to the Champions League being the European competition in which Zvezda has the most victories, considering that it is currently tied with the Europa League and that the ratio is 70-70.
Someone who could individually come close to the record is Milan Rodić, for whom tomorrow's match could be his 38th in the Zvezda jersey when it comes to the Champions League, which would put him just one match behind Borjan, whom he would play by the end of the group stage could even overtake.
An interesting fact is that this will be the 90th game for Zvezda in all European competitions in the new, modern era of the club led by the current administration, where we are recording fantastic results.
See you at Maracana!
