Željezničar played very defensively in the first half, and Milošević says his team intentionally played a bit more reserved in the first half. This was done because of the quality of the opposing team.

"I can be satisfied because the guys gave their all. We knew we were playing against a phenomenal team with the best individual quality in the league. That's why we played a bit more reserved in the first part. We had a bit more courage in the second half. It remains a pity because we missed the chance to take all three points for various reasons, but overall we can be satisfied," said Milošević.

The Željezničar coach particularly praised the young players who came on later in the match, namely Admir Gojak, Jonathan Freeman, and Ajdin Rašćić. They are all beardless boys who are at the very beginning of their careers.

"Tactically, everyone gave their maximum effort. And those who came on—we had three 18-year-old kids in the second part—they had no problems on the field. They showed in the derby that they have quality and that they can do it. Overall, 90 minutes of maximum concentration against a strong team. We managed to match them and threaten them. If these kids can perform in such an atmosphere and in a derby, they can do it in other matches as well," concluded the Željezničar coach.
