RB Leipzig was satisfied after winning 2-1 over Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League Group G match on Tuesday, November 7th. This German club confirmed their place in the round of 16.

Leipzig took a 1-0 lead after eight minutes when Xavi Simons found space in the penalty box and fired an incredible shot into the right corner to score his second goal in the Champions League. He also had time to score against the Red Star two weeks earlier.

The visitors dominated the game and could have doubled their lead before the first half ended, but Red Star goalkeeper Omri Glazer twice thwarted Lois Openda's attempt.

However, the Belgium international finally scored in the 77th minute, destroying the hosts' chances of appearing more aggressive in the second half.

The Red Star narrowed the gap through Benjamin Henrichs' own goal in the 81st minute, but they were unable to equalize and suffered a third defeat in four games in the Champions League this season.

The German team remains in second place with nine points, three points behind leaders Manchester City, who beat Young Boys 3-0. The Red Star and the Swiss team have one point, and they hope for the top 6 to be trapped.
