Zvezda's break is an important weapon in big games

The biggest indicator was surely the two-leg match against Boda Glimt in the Champions League play-offs. In the first game, with the score 2:0 for the home team, In Bom Hwang took a free kick, and Ognjen Mimović was the most skillful and passed the ball into the net. In the second leg, Uroš Spajić's sky jump, after the corner taken by Timi Max Elšnik, will be recounted for a long time. In the end, it turned out that it was our captain's goal that was decisive for Zvezda's placement in the most elite European club competition.

The red and whites reminded us again how dangerous they are from the break, and they did that in yesterday's game against Železničar from Pancevo. In the middle of the first half, the Slovenian connection worked, and again the accomplice in scoring the goal was Elšnik, while the main executor was Vanja Drkušić.

Once again, Zvezda's play from the break came to the fore against Čukaricki in the fifth round of the domestic championship. After a safe lead of 2:0, Hwang took a free kick from a long distance, and the awkward flight of the ball confused one of the local footballers, who scored an own goal.

It is known that the red and whites have often used stoppages as their main weapon in important matches in Europe and domestic championships. That's how Spajić scored after a corner in the eternal derby last season, and Milan Rodić was also accurate after a corner kick against Braga in the Europa League. However, surely everyone remembers Milan Mavkov's jump against Liverpool, in Red Star's biggest triumph in the 21st century.

This season, our defenders are extremely motivated, and in addition to the aforementioned Mimović, Spajić and Drkušić, Seol and Leković also hit the net. The Korean scored a fantastic goal against Novi Pazar, while the young Serbian stopper was the scorer against Zenit in the preparatory period.
