According to several reports, Slovan had a successful start to the match. The home side created pressure and pushed the opponent into their half, but changed their approach after taking the lead. Coach Yaya Touré and the players themselves spoke about the team withdrawing too much and giving Celje more space. Čerepkai, who arrived at Slovan shortly before the match and managed two training sessions, scored already on his debut in the starting lineup. sport.sk ↗
A prominent topic after the match was the performance of German referee Felix Zwayer. Touré criticized especially the situation in the penalty area, where Andraž Šporar got to a shot and according to Slovan it could have been a foul. The coach stated that the referee knows the rules, but he considered his performance weak. SITA ↗
