Quali performance means nothing I can tell you as a England fan who before euro 2016 saw us win all the qualifiers games and beat Germany and France in friendlies on the way. Only for us to play absolutely terribly in the actual tournament.
Fans simply pay more attention to attackers than defenders, so when Serbia was hyped up before the World Cup I was definitely intrigued, but skeptical. And it has to be said: their defense was woeful.
Maybe this team could do something at euro but tadic will be older and some of the younger prayers have to step up maybe Ilic and if they get the German/Serb samardzic would make the midfield alot better.
Serbia does not have bad luck nor a lack of quality. It’s the constant decline of a society which has already set the bar too high by (unironically) expecting them to win the World Cup. There’s a massive lack of mentality and discipline like in all other Balkan nations (except for the Croatian team) and it comes as no surprise that a team that looks as incredibly well as the Serbian one to have failed this badly
I dont think it's a lack of quality, cuz they have produced a lot of talented players. From what i have seen, i think maybe it seems that sometimes (such as in this case with Serbia) there are national teams that have good players in terms of individual talent. But then when they have to come together to play ad one cohesive unit, they don't seem to click as one unified group. Germany for example (putting aside these last two WCs where they have played bad) tend to be the oppositr, regardless hof the quality of their individual players (which most of the times is good anyways), they play as one cohesive unit. Serbia definitley has great players, they just need to learn to how play bettet as a team as opposed to just a compilation of individual players. I don't know what the fix would be to this, maybe the right coach? Im not sure. But i definitely do believe Serbia is a country with real potential, and i dont use that loosely or apply it to just any nation. I dont personally believe every nation has a "real" potential.
The title perfectly describes it, I'm still baffled how Serbia didn't make it out of the group in 2022, and when they choked the penalty shootout against Scotland I was speechless
Serbia's achievement in the FIFA World Cup. 2006 - Tournament's tallest team, eliminated in the first round. 2010 - Tournament's tallest team, eliminated in the first round. 2018 - Tournament's tallest team, eliminated in the first round. 2022 - Tournament's tallest team (in fact the tallest team to have ever participated in the World Cup), eliminated in the first round. Now that is consistency. Oh yes, this pattern is also occuring in at least 90% of other sporting tournaments Serbia has participated, proving that The Dutch don't deserve to keep their world's tallest nation title.

As a Serb I think the main difference between Yugoslavia and Serbia in football is that the players play in different clubs and leagues which leads them to having worse chemistry and team work compared to Yugoslavia which had great chemistry in the team due to the fact players had better knowledge of eachother and each other's play style. This is only my opinion though.
You are right, especially in 1930, in 1930 only serbs played for yugoslavia and they knew eachother. And for people who dont know serbia could win 1930 wc but uruguay robbed everyone
For me its just irritating that Serbia isn't good enough to qualify for Euros and advance to the knockout stage at the world cup since they became an Independent country. They could have afforded more since Euro 2008 Qualifiers. Edit: I also hope that they will qualify for Euro 2024

Albania being awarded that win in the Euro 2016 qualifiers was absolutely ridiculous. Guess I'll start making some Greater Argentina banners for our next Copa América run.

One "small" detail you missed was that the Serbian FA before the game had banned any albanians from attending barring VIP guests and journalists and they had also banned any albanian flag, shirt or any sort of merchandising from entering in the stadium. The Serbian fans were chanting racists chants agaisnt Kosova, Albania and their people and also burning our respective flags and that of NATO. They called for the slaughter of Albanians amongst other heinous things and our anthem was booed to oblivion. This is why we were awarded the win amongst other reasons and this is why a fan decided to fly a drone in. It's incredibly unfair to play in such conditions and to allow the disrespect to our nation as if it isn't actively happening. Either play on neutral turf with no fans or allow both teams to have their supporters there. Simple. In the return game Serbian fans and symbolism were allowed and none faced any issues with Albanians in the stadium or city. Good times nonetheless thankfully no one was seriously hurt barring some serb feelings :p
@@eliopetro6048 Politics have no place in sports. UEFA had no right to award anybody a score of 3-0, to anybody, ever. Albania seems to survive by having friends in high places.
As an Irishman who has not seen his team make it to a World Cup since 2002 and who has only seen his team at two European Cups, my instinct is to think you're being ungrateful. But at the same time, we've had no expectations to do well, so my heart does go out to the Serbs going forward.
Amazing video, would love to see more of these history-based videos on different nations. Maybe do one on Croatia, especially interesting because they are like the opposite of Serbia in terms of success but share a similar history before the Yugoslavia break-up.
Thank god we qualified for the Euros. I wouldve genuinely jumped outta my window if we lost to Bulgaria and Montenegro won. Thank god that didnt happen
2016 was just blatant bullying against serbia, they knew everything that would happen. And instead of punishing Albania for starting the fight, they punished serbia. Thats what coke lobbying can achieve guys.
Ill be honest, I don't watch your channel too much, so when I (as a proud serb) saw a video pop up in my recommended about Serbia's "legacy of failure", made by a croat, I was quite pissed. I thought it'd just be a bit of clowning on Serbia's inferior football team from Croatia, as the croats love to do so much. Upon watching, I'm very impressed. One of the best football videos I've seen recently. You've earned a sub. Idemo Hrvatska i Srbija! Drugacije zemlje, al bratski narod!!
Serbia has the same issue as a lot of African teams. Quality players in specific areas but a terrible goalkeeper and too many squad menbers who are at a very low level.
you guys do not understand i am someone from Serbia and the team isn't bad the big problem is out of the field and people that are behind the national team have other things more important that winning
Yeah, this Serbian generation was great on paper. But they didn't have any that good coach in my opinion. So this can be one of the reasons why this generation failed. But still making it to World Cups is an achievement.
I think we always had unbalanced team...team with Radomir Antic, beast defensivley on paper but no capable goal scorer in attack, Antic was best coach we ever had, one of biggest mistakes ever was firing him...this world cup, again same story unbalanced team, big hype, average coach, great attack (Mitrovic, Vlahovic, Tosic...), but horrible defence made of average players, team without true leader...I really dont know from were is such big hype starting, we are average team at best.
Well it depends how you see the situation ,YES, Serbia is not a global force, nor a European one ,but I think only Hungary is better from Eastern Europe. than Serbia.
Well I gotta admit that judge decision to not even regulate a goal in Portugal vs Serbia was surprising considering how much obvious goal was,but then again if we look entire qualifications and wc 2022 we can say that it was meant to be that way with seeing suspicious decisions from the judges
What ive seen is Serbian players playing like they are physically possesed when playing for their European clubs then when playing for their country they play with no heart or passion And who can forget the Vidic intentional handball vs Germany in 2010 they are full off it I feel sorry for the supporters who pay good money too travel too watch them
Serbia cannot handle pressure .. in qatar swiss knew all they had to do is start a little drama with xaka or shequiri serbia would lose their mind and lose focus lol
The problem with Serbia is that they dont have a team. They have talents, but they dont play as a whole team. Also, the pressure of major tournaments eats them . We saw that in the World Cup, but also in this year’s Euros. And when you have so many talents there, it’s not impossible to have internal conflicts between players that create a toxic environment in the squad. This is something serious.
I'm afraid it may be the same thing at EURO 2024. Playing England first in the group won't help matters. Denmark and Slovenia are also tricky matches. I wish them all the best this time around and tnx maqwell for the detailed and comprehensive analyses.
I haven't watched the video yet but I'm gonna say it I'm from Serbia and half of our team was injured but I think the main problem was our defence I'm still so disappointed how we did in the world cup:(
I would say that big diffrence betwen Croatia and Serbia in football is also that Croatia have Dinamo Zagreb which is one of bigest clubs of Europe in meaning of producting young talents into world class players like: Modric,Kovacic,Brozovic, Gvardiol,Lovren,Livakovic,Eduardo,Majer.. They don't have that in Crvena Zvezda and Partizan...
@Skawei No they don't buddy, they have a european cup title. And also, that tournament had 16 teams only. And also, Dinamo has played much much more European football, than all the clubs in Serbia combined, with both shit results and amazing results. Dinamo also has a euro title from 67'. Noone has UCL.
@@Xof_D-Dawg_Fox Dinamo fans would give their left nut to able to say that their team was once the best in the world... also red star was much more successful in Yugoslavia.
@@savicserb31 best in the world? In what? European cup, not UCL. There was only 16 teams in that tournament and it's ancient. And also, Dinamo played more European football than all your league combined. Trust me, no one misses anything. That's something you would say just to find comfort ☮️
@@Xof_D-Dawg_Fox haha you sound like you have insecurity over this topic. So I will clarify for you. It was the most prestigious title for a football club at the time. and at that time it was red star belgrade that earned the title of being the best in the world. Not Real Madrid, not Milan, not Bayern, and certainly not Dinamo. And As I stated, dinamo was good in Yugoslavia, but never reached the amount of titles that Zvezda did. As the saying goes, neko nekad, neko nikad 😊
@@savicserb31 Great achievement, no one is taking that away from you. Just the guy up wrote they won UCL and they didn't. I personally love those stories, and if red star went to final again now, I'd cheer for them, always for the underdogs! But to spin that untill today is living on old fame. What happened after that in the next 35 years? Nothing, for both countries. Croatia is playing much more european football. So some will say, I'd trade that title for all these years of no european football, but some will say I'd trade that title just to watch the team play all this time! 50/50 benefits, both good. Would you want you team to be in european football almost every year? And doesn't that take big effort? Same as winning it once? It's both big effort. My dad would care about a european cup title, half of us wouldn't care. We want it now when it's hard and biggest ever! But fuck the war axes! It's not a race, I hope we all make it there. War or no war, I'd cheer for my neighbours any day before I would for any of the big clubs!

They have always been overrated yet their fans think they are so freaking awesome and powerful even though they're not. Even teams like Ghana, the USA and Australia have done more at World Cups than Serbia.

As a Bosnian, making a video on our failures of qualifying would be nice too, 2014 I feel like we were screwed over in that game against Nigeria and we didn’t do too bad against Argentina, but we had many chances to qualify for euros like in euro 2020 when we lost on penalties to Northern Ireland, or in the Euro 2012 qualifiers where nearly beat France to top the group similar to how Serbia did, but yeah I hope a bunch of the ex Yugoslavia nations qualify for the next Euros, that would be a history in the making
Only if Serbs and the rest would leave for Croatians to lead everything. It's no coincidence Croatia alone is by far more successful than rest of the neighbors together.
Hi HRVizak, will you be covering the women's world cup? It's a very exciting tournament given it'll be the first to have 32 teams and the Euros last year were very entertaining. Love your channel and if you don't it's cool but I think it could make for some interesting videos.
Serbia is the Balkan Scotland. Always do well in qualifying (and Scotland were good until 1998) but do nothing in tournaments. Scotland have been to 11 tournaments and have still yet to progress beyond Round 1.
To be fair, UEFA decided to remove two games between Armenia and Azerbaijan because Nagorno-Karabakh was an indisputed country for Armenia and Azerbaijan, which was left unoccupied after the civil war. Since then, they weren't being placed on the same groups for the subsequent major tournaments. The same prohibitions applies for Russia with Ukraine, though this was not happened since the great war happened the last year, and Serbia with Kosovo and Bosnia.
Most money is in football so there's lots of corruption in our country. We are good in other sports because there's not much money in those,so people do it because they love it. In our football,we also have few egotistical narcissist players,who think they are above everyone else , and they bring a lot of unrest. Bit of this,bit of that and it adds up. Our football representation is everything but a team.
Sergej Milinkovic Savic is a player who is very inconsistent for the National team and Muslin had every right not to select him. But as usual the loud Serbian ultras who don't know what they are thinking get in the way and Muslin is fired. We would be so much better right now if we had kept Muslin because whatever he was doing was working. Krstajic was not good enough of a successor on such short notice and after that Tumbakovic was too old and even now Piksi is clearly cut out for club management not national team management. Muslin was probably our best coach post Antic and we get rid of him for what? Not letting an inconsistent player who doesn't try for Serbia not play? Wow this is why Serbia won't do anything for a long time Edit @HRVizak how come you didn't mention the robbery when Brych refused to check VAR for a clear foul on Mitrovic, should Serbia have scored that penalty Serbia would have advanced to the RO16 based off other results.
As a Frenchman, I really like Serbia. But I must admit that the Serbs' mentality is sometimes faltering, especially when they lose control of the match. They start to get angry and do stupid things. Quite the opposite of Croatia, which, even when dominated, manages not to succumb. This also explains why Croatians perform well in international tournaments.
Football rankings of ex-YU nations (by me) Croatia - Best! Fights to get trophy for all Yugoslavia! Serbia - Not good but tryhard Bosnia - Do they know what a world cup is? Slovenia, N. Macedonia, Kosovo, Montenegro - Meh
Mate of course Kosovo is meh rn I mean they were allowed to play international only in 2016 also the players are getting better a few years ago rashica was kind of a one season wonder (hope he gets his form back) but vedat muriqi rn is on fire in la Liga so yeah don't sleep on Kosovo i hope they can have a good 2023
I was joking about how the last time they scored more than twice in a world cup finals was still known as FR Yugoslavia in 1998 before World cup 2022 started. At least they managed more than that this time but their defence got exposed quite badly.
Let's be real during the days of the former Yugoslavia, it was 🇭🇷 players that carried that team. If you notice, 🇭🇷 is the most successful sporting nation of all the former Yugoslav nations!!
@ESI - GAMING Yeah, the 🇵🇱 teams of the 70s and early 80s, the USSR team of Euro '88, and the 🇧🇬 and 🇷🇴 teams of the '94 WC. I remember seeing that 🇧🇬 🇩🇪 game, and wow, that 🇧🇬 team was 🔥!! Unfortunately Eastern Europe today don't have the financial resources compared to their Western European counterparts. Very sad yo
I’ve been shocked by their performance in the wc considering how good they played during the qualification especially against Portugal
Look at 2002 Argentina they got 42 points an South America qualfying all that just for them to not make out the group stage

The Serbian fans were chanting racists chants agaisnt Kosova, Albania and their people and also burning our respective flags and that of NATO. They called for the slaughter of Albanians amongst other heinous things and our anthem was booed to oblivion. This is why we were awarded the win amongst other reasons and this is why a fan decided to fly a drone in. It's incredibly unfair to play in such conditions and to allow the disrespect to our nation as if it isn't actively happening. Either play on neutral turf with no fans or allow both teams to have their supporters there. Simple. In the return game Serbian fans and symbolism were allowed and none faced any issues with Albanians in the stadium or city. Good times nonetheless thankfully no one was seriously hurt barring some serb feelings :p

Hey fun fact… if my history is correct, Messi scored his first World Cup goal against Serbia Montenegro
As an Irishman who has not seen his team make it to a World Cup since 2002 and who has only seen his team at two European Cups, my instinct is to think you're being ungrateful. But at the same time, we've had no expectations to do well, so my heart does go out to the Serbs going forward.
You guys should of qualfied but France robbed ireland
no, but the thing is we beat Portugal. finished top of the group UNBEATEN just to play 3-3 with fucking Cameroon and dropping a 3-1 lead

Amazing video, would love to see more of these history-based videos on different nations. Maybe do one on Croatia, especially interesting because they are like the opposite of Serbia in terms of success but share a similar history before the Yugoslavia break-up.
Thank god we qualified for the Euros. I wouldve genuinely jumped outta my window if we lost to Bulgaria and Montenegro won. Thank god that didnt happen
2016 was just blatant bullying against serbia, they knew everything that would happen. And instead of punishing Albania for starting the fight, they punished serbia. Thats what coke lobbying can achieve guys.
Starting the fight ? Did you see fans entering the pitch and beating the players. Prior to that, they’re chanting to kill albanians.
Great video bro. I run a fan video which focuses on the Serb team.
Geat video
Ill be honest, I don't watch your channel too much, so when I (as a proud serb) saw a video pop up in my recommended about Serbia's "legacy of failure", made by a croat, I was quite pissed. I thought it'd just be a bit of clowning on Serbia's inferior football team from Croatia, as the croats love to do so much. Upon watching, I'm very impressed. One of the best football videos I've seen recently. You've earned a sub. Idemo Hrvatska i Srbija! Drugacije zemlje, al bratski narod!!
Bratski narod da kajn i avelj
Nice video man! Svaka Ti Čast
Hvala HRVizak much love from a serb 🇷🇸 ❤ 🇭🇷
Serbia has the same issue as a lot of African teams. Quality players in specific areas but a terrible goalkeeper and too many squad menbers who are at a very low level.
Goalkeeper is fine. Biggest issue of current team is almost non existent defence.
you guys do not understand i am someone from Serbia and the team isn't bad the big problem is out of the field and people that are behind the national team have other things more important that winning
Too much physicality
Everyone be rooting for them in the World Cup but for me, i had no faith in them
Lol they called them the dark horse and I was dying of laughter. Ik they would be shit
@@lilkurva180 SO TRUE
Yeah, this Serbian generation was great on paper. But they didn't have any that good coach in my opinion. So this can be one of the reasons why this generation failed. But still making it to World Cups is an achievement.
Well half of our team was injured and we played with our B team but I think the main problem was our defense
Yeah, the Coach is bad, all players are playing with passion and love, but the Coach doesn't know what he's doing
amazing vid, keep doing these type of vids
Great Video my Friend 😊
really good quality video from hrvizak, cant wait to see u reach 100k subs
This looks fun can you do this with other countires
Like Belgium lol . (coming from a Belgian guy)
@@laurentsem6691 Maqwell is making one if ur interested
I almost thought this was a Maqwell video 🙃
Great video, thanks
I think we always had unbalanced team...team with Radomir Antic, beast defensivley on paper but no capable goal scorer in attack, Antic was best coach we ever had, one of biggest mistakes ever was firing him...this world cup, again same story unbalanced team, big hype, average coach, great attack (Mitrovic, Vlahovic, Tosic...), but horrible defence made of average players, team without true leader...I really dont know from were is such big hype starting, we are average team at best.
As a Serbian I totally agree, I really don’t know why football is the only ball sport we aren’t successful
Well it depends how you see the situation ,YES, Serbia is not a global force, nor a European one ,but I think only Hungary is better from Eastern Europe. than Serbia.
Interesting to relive this. I also noticed the Mario Strikers Charged Football music
Good video
Well I gotta admit that judge decision to not even regulate a goal in Portugal vs Serbia was surprising considering how much obvious goal was,but then again if we look entire qualifications and wc 2022 we can say that it was meant to be that way with seeing suspicious decisions from the judges
I just want serbia qualify for euros we don't need to pass the group stage i just want to qualify
What ive seen is Serbian players playing like they are physically possesed when playing for their European clubs then when playing for their country they play with no heart or passion And who can forget the Vidic intentional handball vs Germany in 2010 they are full off it
I feel sorry for the supporters who pay good money too travel too watch them
If we qualify for the euro 2024 and have luck with our opponents in our group we could have a solid run…
I thought this was Maqwell's video
I was confused as well 😕
Serbia cannot handle pressure .. in qatar swiss knew all they had to do is start a little drama with xaka or shequiri serbia would lose their mind and lose focus lol
The problem with Serbia is that they dont have a team. They have talents, but they dont play as a whole team. Also, the pressure of major tournaments eats them . We saw that in the World Cup, but also in this year’s Euros.
And when you have so many talents there, it’s not impossible to have internal conflicts between players that create a toxic environment in the squad. This is something serious.
The whole 2022 World Cup people were saying that Croatia would be crap and go out in the groups and Serbia would be dark horses.
That’s because they had a very disappointing euros
I'm afraid it may be the same thing at EURO 2024. Playing England first in the group won't help matters. Denmark and Slovenia are also tricky matches. I wish them all the best this time around and tnx maqwell for the detailed and comprehensive analyses.
I didn't thought that Serbia will qualify to the round of 16 in fact it stayed in group stage
I haven't watched the video yet but I'm gonna say it I'm from Serbia and half of our team was injured but I think the main problem was our defence I'm still so disappointed how we did in the world cup:(
Please, you tell yourself that.. tsss
Kostić was injured, that's it lmao.
I have to say it, I thought that Serbia will stay in group stage
@@maxxfaxx5408 did u even watch the fuull video,HRViz literally said that most of our players were hurt💀
@@isogdl didn't ask
I would say that big diffrence betwen Croatia and Serbia in football is also that Croatia have Dinamo Zagreb which is one of bigest clubs of Europe in meaning of producting young talents into world class players like:
Modric,Kovacic,Brozovic, Gvardiol,Lovren,Livakovic,Eduardo,Majer..
They don't have that in Crvena Zvezda and Partizan...
@Skawei No they don't buddy, they have a european cup title. And also, that tournament had 16 teams only. And also, Dinamo has played much much more European football, than all the clubs in Serbia combined, with both shit results and amazing results. Dinamo also has a euro title from 67'. Noone has UCL.
@@Xof_D-Dawg_Fox Dinamo fans would give their left nut to able to say that their team was once the best in the world... also red star was much more successful in Yugoslavia.
@@savicserb31 best in the world? In what? European cup, not UCL. There was only 16 teams in that tournament and it's ancient. And also, Dinamo played more European football than all your league combined.
Trust me, no one misses anything. That's something you would say just to find comfort ☮️
@@Xof_D-Dawg_Fox haha you sound like you have insecurity over this topic. So I will clarify for you. It was the most prestigious title for a football club at the time. and at that time it was red star belgrade that earned the title of being the best in the world. Not Real Madrid, not Milan, not Bayern, and certainly not Dinamo. And As I stated, dinamo was good in Yugoslavia, but never reached the amount of titles that Zvezda did. As the saying goes, neko nekad, neko nikad 😊
@@savicserb31 Great achievement, no one is taking that away from you. Just the guy up wrote they won UCL and they didn't.
I personally love those stories, and if red star went to final again now, I'd cheer for them, always for the underdogs!
But to spin that untill today is living on old fame. What happened after that in the next 35 years? Nothing, for both countries. Croatia is playing much more european football. So some will say, I'd trade that title for all these years of no european football, but some will say I'd trade that title just to watch the team play all this time! 50/50 benefits, both good.
Would you want you team to be in european football almost every year? And doesn't that take big effort? Same as winning it once? It's both big effort. My dad would care about a european cup title, half of us wouldn't care. We want it now when it's hard and biggest ever!
But fuck the war axes! It's not a race, I hope we all make it there. War or no war, I'd cheer for my neighbours any day before I would for any of the big clubs!
❌ Qualify for the completion
✅ Insult Albania

Serbia are the biggest chokers in world football. All the talent in the world but can't handle the pressure like Croatia can. They always do so well in qualifiers but they crumble every time
Kosovo is not recognized by more than half of the world, so Kosovo is Serbia!
And yes we suck in football..
Ta qifsha Serbien
Serbia is Russia
Kosovo was not part of Yugoslavia, it was even then part of Serbia.
Maqwell: This is new.

As a Bosnian, making a video on our failures of qualifying would be nice too, 2014 I feel like we were screwed over in that game against Nigeria and we didn’t do too bad against Argentina, but we had many chances to qualify for euros like in euro 2020 when we lost on penalties to Northern Ireland, or in the Euro 2012 qualifiers where nearly beat France to top the group similar to how Serbia did, but yeah I hope a bunch of the ex Yugoslavia nations qualify for the next Euros, that would be a history in the making

If Yugoslavia still existed today, they should be a footballing superpower.

Only if Serbs and the rest would leave for Croatians to lead everything. It's no coincidence Croatia alone is by far more successful than rest of the neighbors together.

Serbia is never spared in the group stages. They faced two big teams ( Brazil and Switzerland ) 2 consequetive world cups.
bro think he maqwell 💀💀
Seriously tho great video man izak
4:04 hold on a second, Armenia and Azerbaijan in the same group? That's illegal
To be fair, UEFA decided to remove two games between Armenia and Azerbaijan because Nagorno-Karabakh was an indisputed country for Armenia and Azerbaijan, which was left unoccupied after the civil war. Since then, they weren't being placed on the same groups for the subsequent major tournaments. The same prohibitions applies for Russia with Ukraine, though this was not happened since the great war happened the last year, and Serbia with Kosovo and Bosnia.
Most money is in football so there's lots of corruption in our country.
We are good in other sports because there's not much money in those,so people do it because they love it.
In our football,we also have few egotistical narcissist players,who think they are above everyone else , and they bring a lot of unrest.
Bit of this,bit of that and it adds up. Our football representation is everything but a team.
As a Serb, big respect for you♥️
Sergej Milinkovic Savic is a player who is very inconsistent for the National team and Muslin had every right not to select him. But as usual the loud Serbian ultras who don't know what they are thinking get in the way and Muslin is fired. We would be so much better right now if we had kept Muslin because whatever he was doing was working. Krstajic was not good enough of a successor on such short notice and after that Tumbakovic was too old and even now Piksi is clearly cut out for club management not national team management. Muslin was probably our best coach post Antic and we get rid of him for what? Not letting an inconsistent player who doesn't try for Serbia not play? Wow this is why Serbia won't do anything for a long time
Edit @HRVizak how come you didn't mention the robbery when Brych refused to check VAR for a clear foul on Mitrovic, should Serbia have scored that penalty Serbia would have advanced to the RO16 based off other results.
HRVizak brat moj, great video!!!
Hvala!!
As a Frenchman, I really like Serbia. But I must admit that the Serbs' mentality is sometimes faltering, especially when they lose control of the match. They start to get angry and do stupid things. Quite the opposite of Croatia, which, even when dominated, manages not to succumb. This also explains why Croatians perform well in international tournaments.
Croatia 100% european team.France 90% african team
They fought hard, but jebiga. They just didn't pull it off.
Serbia's defence let them down at world cup. They scored a lot of goals.
Football rankings of ex-YU nations (by me)
Croatia - Best! Fights to get trophy for all Yugoslavia!
Serbia - Not good but tryhard
Bosnia - Do they know what a world cup is?
Slovenia, N. Macedonia, Kosovo, Montenegro - Meh
Bosnia was in the world cup in 2014
Slovenia is Underrated
Slovenia and Bosnia are underrated imo
@@mttm4555 And their humiliating defeat? An offside goal against Nigeria. They only won 3-0 against Iran.
Mate of course Kosovo is meh rn I mean they were allowed to play international only in 2016 also the players are getting better a few years ago rashica was kind of a one season wonder (hope he gets his form back) but vedat muriqi rn is on fire in la Liga so yeah don't sleep on Kosovo i hope they can have a good 2023
I was joking about how the last time they scored more than twice in a world cup finals was still known as FR Yugoslavia in 1998 before World cup 2022 started. At least they managed more than that this time but their defence got exposed quite badly.
I agree with you even tho im serbian😢
I see your jusing maxwell type videos love it👍
22:25 turn on the auto generated captions
Everybody predicted Serbia will go threw to the world cup knockout stages but somehow they bottled it against Cameroon

Let's be real during the days of the former Yugoslavia, it was 🇭🇷 players that carried that team. If you notice, 🇭🇷 is the most successful sporting nation of all the former Yugoslav nations!!
As a neutral, I agree. Look how Yugoslavia became weak at football without Croatia.
not only Yugoslavia, whole Eastern europe imo🤷
@ESI - GAMING Yeah, the 🇵🇱 teams of the 70s and early 80s, the USSR team of Euro '88, and the 🇧🇬 and 🇷🇴 teams of the '94 WC. I remember seeing that 🇧🇬 🇩🇪 game, and wow, that 🇧🇬 team was 🔥!! Unfortunately Eastern Europe today don't have the financial resources compared to their Western European counterparts. Very sad yo
