FC Sheriff unsuccessfully started in the new European campaign. The match against the Georgian Saburtalo has developed so that no one could expect, even the guests.

In the first half, with an equal game, the teams created two moment each that could be called scoring. But the score was opened by the Saburtalo players, who took advantage of the only mistake of our defense.

The game of the wards of Zoran Zekic did not go well, which allowed guests to make dangerous attacks. It seemed the score was hardly logical. Having made two substitutions in the break, the mentor of our team gave proportion in the middle.

However, the second half, despite the improvements in the game, led to a sad result for us. In one of the counterattacks, the guests scored the ball with a kick from behind the penalty area. The ball got exactly to the upper 90. And at the end of the match, the score became major, after a draw of the corner.

Sheriff did not give up, but could not correct the situation. Ahead it is the second leg in Tbilisi, which will be played on July 16.
