Simic scored a penalty goal, made an assist, had four shots (two on target) and was shown a yellow card during Wednesday's 2-0 win over Benfica.

ANALYSIS
Simic was key for his side to get an important away win to start group stage. The youngster converted a penalty to open the scoring in the 15th minute and then assisted Oscar Gloukh for the goal that sealed the 2-0 win in the 51st. An alternative off the bench for UCL games over the last two campaigns, Simic profiles as a central piece on this RB Salzburg squad that wants to make noise one more time this year.
