Red Star (Crvena Zvezda) footballers were defeated (3-1) by Manchester City in the first game of this year's Champions League last night, despite making a very good impression at the Etihad Stadium.

Red Star even took the lead at the end of the first half with a goal scored by Osman Bukari, but then there was a big and to be fair, expected comeback by their opponents.

Part of the show was stolen by the supporters in the stands, especially the Red Star fans who cheered on their players the entire time. Before the game, they came to the stadium in a huge procession, they celebrated the first goal wildly, and attracted attention at one point when they started waving banknotes at Manchester City fans.

It is clear that they were alluding to the huge amount of money that the Arabs have poured into Manchester City during the last 15 years. The rivals had a very interesting, and somewhat strange response to that.

"We'll buy your club, we'll burn it down," Manchester City fans shouted.

In addition, the English club's supporters shouted at one point that their team was the champion of Europe, but the rivals did not remain silent either.

Red Star will play the second round match in two weeks at home against Young Boys. The "eternal derby" against Partizan awaits them in exactly seven days.
