Head coach Miroslav Tanjga addressed the defeat, noting that the early ejection effectively determined the match's direction.
"Iznenađen sam tokom utakmice, za nas je meč završen već u devetom minutu, crveni karton posle greške cele poslednje linije," said Tanjga.
Tanjga acknowledged the superior performance of their opponent while reflecting on the tactical lesson learned from the result as the team shifts focus to upcoming fixtures.
"Posle toga su usledile individuelne greške za primljene golove. Na kraju, nemamo za čim da žalimo, ispali smo od bolje ekipe.

"Imamo roster od 24 igrača, idemo dalje. Prvo OFK Beograd, sve su ovo profesionalci, pobeda ili poraz, mora se dalje," added Tanjga.
