New team mix boss Djukic introduced against mighty CSKA didn`t look good in the first half. Partizan defence had a lots of problems and Russians did their best to impose punishment.

CSKA took the lead on 16 when Fernandes sent a pinpoint left side ball for Kuchayev who scored from close range.

Djilas had a fine opportunity to equalize but he headed it wide after nice Partizan build-up and cross from Tawamba.

On half hour mark, keeper Kljajic made a poor clearance straight for Vitinho who had an easy job to do and double CSKA lead.

Partizan missed another great opportunity when Tawamba did well to creat a shooting chance but his attempt was stopped by foot touch from CSKA keeper.

Just before the break, youngster Markovic sent a long ball forward, Pantic got a head touch but keeper Pomazin was alerted again.

Early in the second half, Djurickovic shot wide and Leonardo`s turning shot was saved by the keeper. Later on, left-back Miletic crossed for Djurdjevic who didn`t find shooting opportunity on the far post.

All Partizan attacks seemed in vain and CSKA made it 3-0 on 84 after blunder from keeper Stevanovic who kind of assisted to Chalov.

Miroslav Djukic on CSKA defeat:

– We can`t be pleased as we lacked courage but this is all part of training and learning process. We looked better after the break, created lots of attacks and had some opportunities. In the first half we didn`t manage to pressurize CSKA. Goals will come, it`s normal to waste opportunities now and we had three or four clear cut ones.
