Silencing the famously hostile crowd at Belgrade's 'Marakana', Pafos delivered a shock inside the opening minute last Tuesday, as Joao Correia struck to give the visitors the lead. Pepe then doubled their advantage from the penalty spot shortly after the break, though Bruno Duarte quickly halved the deficit for Red Star six minutes later. That outcome leaves the tie delicately balanced ahead of this week's second leg in Cyprus, where Pafos have yet to begin their title defence.
