A 3–0 start in Belgrade
Red Star beat Viktoria Plzeň 3–0 at home on 20 August. The return on 27 August finished Plzeň 5–1 Red Star after extra time, producing a 5–4 aggregate win for the Czech club.
A stoppage-time penalty removed Red Star's cushion
Red Star's 3–0 first-leg lead survived until the closing moments of normal time in Plzeň. Kabongo's penalty in the fifth minute of added time made the return 4–1, levelling the aggregate score at 4–4.
Krčík then scored in the 96th minute. The 5–1 extra-time result sent Plzeň through 5–4 overall. This was settled by goals during play, including a penalty in normal time, rather than by a post-match shootout.
Crvena Zvezda in UEFA's archive
UEFA lists the club as FK Crvena Zvezda. Its Europa League record includes the round of 16 in 2021/22 and knockout play-offs in 2025/26, while the 2026/27 entry is the qualifying play-off.
Red Star Belgrade and Crvena Zvezda are English and Serbian names for the same club.
