“Six states, five nations, four languages, three religions, two alphabets and only one Tito”, said the nursery rhyme. And then the genius of Galic, the dribbling of Dzajic, Stojkovic, Savicevic, Boban… The story of an anarchic football, but never bad
When the Yugoslavs were the Brazilians of Europe, Yugoslavia was one, a single large country that brought together many identities – Croats, Bosnians, Serbs, Montenegrins, Macedonians, Slovenians – and managed to make them come together, giving life to an almost perfect chemistry . Almost because more than victories, in the look from the rear view mirror of life today it’s the regrets that weigh. The balance was fragile, but so much beauty was sown. And from the mix a certain way of playing football was born. A naive football, sometimes anarchic, always marked by the search for the applause-winning shot.
