Partizan boss Aleksandar Stanojevic after the game:
-To be honest, I`m pleased for us going through to the next round above all. Boys showed focus and character through all of the 120 minutes. We were disciplined, never allowing trademark dangerous counter-attacks to home side. We created quite a few opportunities early in the game but lost a spark once home team decided to play behind the ball. But, we controlled the proceedings and never seemed to panic.
