This is how Crvena Ziesda coach responded when asked if they were provoked by Albanian fans

Crvena Zvezdes coach Dejan Stankovic spoke from the press conference prior to the match with Tirana. The former player Inter has acknowledged that so far he has had a very good time in Albania and has had no problems. He puts aside politics and thinks only of green football.

Fighting and Risking I've come to play soccer and nothing else. I don't care about other things. If I think I have to stop the fight, I stop it. Football has been played before this game, and it will be played after the match. We'll see how the meeting will go”.

Fans “In the first place, you regret that there are no fans, as they are a very important part of football. It's a very important match, we've prepared before fully, studied the opponent. We're prepared for all scenarios. ”

PreferredI think Tirana is a new and highly organised team, with speed and a very good block, also shown in the match against Dinamo Tbilisi. As far as I understand, Tirana coach has taken on the role of favourite. If you think we're the favourite, then I agree with you (laugh)”

Group What's up with the footballers that have gathered, is my choice. Who hasn't come, I've decided for the benefit of the team. The guys who are here, they're highly experienced and technical players, the playing field will tell this thing. I make my selection to the current position of the team, not the names. There's nothing else”.

Try. No. We haven't had any problems, I don't know what it says in the media. I don't know the Albanian National, I just know De Biasi and Panucci. Albanian football itself, I don't know it very well”, he said.
