An impressive gallery of around 3,000 Olympiakos supporters made the trip to Bucharest to see their favorites in action in Europe.
The supporters of Red Star Belgrade, who are twinned with Olympiakos, also came to the match. They came to support the Greeks after they also went to the UCL match.
The Greeks and Serbians put on a show in the opening match, but there were also tense moments. The away supporters chanted in unison “Kosovo e Serbia!”a message that caused tension in the stands and brought to mind the incident from the Romanian national team's match with Kosovo (3-0 at the “green table”).
40,000 spectators at the National Arena, at the match between FCSB and Olympiacos, the holder of the Conference League.
