AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti believes his team will be given a stern examination if they face Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League third qualifying round.Milan were drawn against the winners of Red Star´s second qualifying-round tie with Cork City, which the Serbian side lead 1-0 after the first leg. Ancelotti is well aware of Red Star´s pedigree having faced them as a player in the late 1980s/early 1990s, a period in which the two teams were among the best in Europe with Milan winning the European Cup in 1989 and 1990, and Red Star in 1991."It´s a demanding match, especially against a name like Red Star, because we haven´t had long to prepare," Ancelotti told acmilan.com. "They have a stadium which is like an inferno, 80-90,000 fans can make a difference. I have good memories of playing them but Red Star are one of the strongest sides to come up against."
