Breakthrough of the Student List in the north of Banat

Great victory in Veliko Selo

The precondition for the convincing victory of the Student List was that the monopoly of Vučić's party in the villages would fall. This happened thanks to last year's self-organization of people and the establishment of congregations, which later turned into village election headquarters. In Banatski Veliko Selo, the choir worked for a long time and devotedly and followed the instructions of the students in the blockade, so in the end, on Sunday, the Student List won the victory in that village as well.

A shift at the top of the football world

Spanish soccer lessons

For more than 20 years, the Spaniards have been working dedicatedly and systematically in football, but also in other sports, so that at the moment they are the leaders in terms of the results of representative selections and clubs, and in addition to footballers, their experts also dominate the world stage. At one time, Cruyff's ideas about positional play and possession of the ball were elaborated, the experiences of Barcelona's football academy "La Masia" were adopted, new academies were opened and a unique training system was introduced for all ages - from small football schools to the aforementioned academies.

The World Cup and us

Serbia is "caught" on the football sidelines

Serbian football, despite all the bad that surrounds it, is deeply rooted, so numerous talents are still emerging and promising generations are being formed. The broken system, however, is not able to properly direct, gather and protect them, so we have become a kind of champions in wasting and trivializing gifted youth.

World Cup outcome

Playing in the shadow of FIFA scandal

For the first time in FIFA World Cup history, the top eight will not include any of the three most trophy-winning countries – Brazil (five titles), Germany (4) and Italy (4); however, the game, the results, the rise of Norway, the goals of Messi, Mbappe and Kane, and even the new shipwrecks of the former world powers, are overshadowed by the disputed decisions and oversights of the referees, those on the field and those in the VAR room, and then by the shameless decision of FIFA to annul the red card to the USA footballer under the pressure of Donald Trump.

World Cup final

"I am from Bosnia, take me to America"

By expanding the elimination stage to 32 teams, FIFA gave the underdogs more opportunities to surprise the favourites, as was shown in the opening round of 16 matches - Germany's penalty defeats to Paraguay and the Netherlands' defeat to Morocco. After the victory over Qatar (3:1) and the historic placement in the elimination phase, the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team got a seven-day opportunity to celebrate and prepare well for the match with the host - the United States of America

2026 FIFA World Cup

Awakening of the favorite

It is likely that some outsiders will reach the second round - the closest to that are the representatives of the Cape Verde Islands, Congo and Iran. They managed to resist the strongest teams and deserved to crown their sacrifice and courage by placing among the 32 best teams

Football World Cup 2026

Controversy in the shadow of a good game

In the exploits of the outsiders, the goalkeepers stood out the most - from Qatar's Mahmoud Abounad, through Australia's Patrick Beach and Saudi El Owais, to Vozinja - the goalkeeper of the Cape Verde Islands. Overnight, they became national heroes, but also global stars: Vozinja gained seven million new followers on Instagram after the match with Spain, and until the other day he had 50.000. More importantly, all of them have at least doubled their value on the football market

World Cup in football

Steam generator

On Thursday (May 23), the World Cup began. All those who really love football, the International Federation of Football Associations (FIFA) presents 104 games in 39 days. Whoever survives will talk about the first World Cup with 48 teams and the first on the soil of three countries - the United States of America, Mexico and Canada

In memoriam: Predrag Koraksić Corax (1933–2026)

A thousand words in a wordless picture

Until his last day, Predrag Koraksić Corax worked and created caricatures that spoke about society and the state more clearly and reliably than thousands of words. Day after day, he drew us the naked and often bitter truth, exposing and ridiculing the powerful and usurpers of power. Last Saturday, the heart stopped and ended the long and fruitful life odyssey of one of the most famous cartoonists of the Balkans and a unique tribune for freedom and justice.

Football: New coach

The best solution at the worst time

Veljko Paunović (pictured) has a really difficult and thankless task ahead of him, and the many who asked: "What did he need?" will be right. and they told him that he accepted a "bad job", but, just as hundreds of thousands of citizens have been taking to the streets for a year now in the belief that "Ćaciland" will prevail in peace and in the elections, so we should also look at Paunović's belief that he and his team will overcome "football Ćaciland"

Election of members of the Council of the Regulatory Body for Electronic Media

REM, lies and videotapes

While the roar of the rebellious people was heard from the street, the arrogance and insolence of the progressive representatives disappeared, and when the noise passed - they continued as before. Our threats to withdraw from the process, nor our appeals to the domestic public and international observers, do not have much influence on the progressive machinery to falter in lies and fraud, and that is why the solution to return the repeated process to the legal framework is self-imposed: for students and rebellious citizens to return to where they will be heard by the government and Europe

In memoriam

Nadežda Gaće (1950–2025)

A volcano, a rock, a dragon woman, a born leader, a great journalist and editor, a great and unwavering Yugoslav woman... With these words, among others, friends and colleagues say goodbye to Nadežda Gaća, the founder and editor of the weekly "Novi Magazin" and the former president of Nuns.

Football Serbia

Course work

That in our football "students beat the experts" is nothing new, but it is breaking news when the general secretary of the Football Association of Serbia, until recently, the chief operative for the last eight years, a man from the system who served one of the most famous (and today's richest) progressive coursers - Slaviš Kokeza

EURO 2024

Why a Spain win is a game win

Before the championship, the Spanish national team was not in the first row of favorites, regardless of the good games and results in the last two years and the victory in the League of Nations last summer, and, according to the estimates of bookmakers and experts, it was behind England, France, Germany and Portugal in terms of chances. and slightly ahead of Italy and Belgium. In the end, she won the title in an impressive way: she won all seven games, which no European champion has managed to do so far, and she defeated all the main and secret favorites - Croatia, Italy, Germany, France and England - in direct duels.

Comment

I don't give Pixie

He agreed to be the regime's mascot, to emphasize the contribution of the president of the state at every opportunity, to be at his side for pictures, to be on his support lists... And he was more and more similar to progressive officials, so that after the poor results in Germany in completely turned into an arrogant and self-loving progressive, who does not tolerate criticism, nor does he think of self-criticism

THE MOST PLEASANT SURPRISE AT THE CHAMPIONSHIP: Spain National Team (Dani Olmo)

EURO 2024

Game without goals

It's a real pity, and one might even say an injustice, that the two most efficient and concrete teams - the Spanish and German national teams - already met in the quarter-finals.

EURO 2024

Opening of the season of hunting for a selector

Of the 24 teams at the European Championship, Serbia was 13th in terms of player value (a total of 313 million euros) and 14th in terms of chances to reach the finals, but did not even make it into the top 16. She scored only one goal, had the fewest shots on goal and the most back passes. In short, it was a pale shadow of a team that until recently played with more goals

European Football Championship

End of agony and misery for Serbia

At the first participation in the European Championship after 24 years, our national team did not celebrate and ended the participation after the first round in the last place in the group, with two draws and one defeat. And what is especially disappointing, with the idealess and boring game, which few provided during the first stage of the tournament in Germany

Fan outbursts and UEFA fines

Balkan blackness in European color

It was known, unfortunately, that the fans of several Balkan countries would cause the most problems for the organizers and the police. It doesn't surprise anyone anymore that, apart from the pitch, we also brawl in the stands and on the streets of German cities. It has been confirmed once again in front of the whole world that many "in these areas" are still poisoned and blinded by hatred, and thanks to them, it seems that numerous football fans throughout Europe, as well as the organizers themselves, can't wait to "see the back" of all of us.

Serbia at the European Football Championship

Defeat, sterile game and encouragement

After 24 years, the national team performed at the European Championship and at the premiere in Germany experienced a minimal defeat against the favored England. This was interpreted by many as a kind of success considering the reputation of the rivals, even though the team coached by Stojković seemed timid, slow and idealess for the most part of the meeting and practically did not even try to take advantage of the obvious fatigue of the English players and the restraint of their coach Southgate.

Local elections: The case of Kikind

You asked - look

In the elections for councilors of the City Assembly of Kikinda, almost all the committees of the opposition parties except the New DSS, but in two columns. Kikinda's progressives gathered on the list with Vučić's name all the previous satellites from the government and added, for the first time, SPS and SRS. In addition, they "pushed" the list of a group of citizens called "Kikinda against violence" led by their until recently well-known official - Miki Aleksić.

Club basketball

War of "state projects"

The good results of Zvezda and Partizan rest on foreign players, and at the same time, only a few players from the youth teams of both clubs entered the first team. It turns out that with a greater interest in basketball and full stands of the Arena, we got even greater hatred between the fans of the two clubs, and a continuous series of mutual insults, name-calling and fights. Also, large state investments have not yet led to Zvezda and Partizan becoming self-sustainable, which is a prerequisite for obtaining a permanent Euroleague license and thus earnings from television and other rights.

President of the country and basketball clubs

Racket, budget and parquet

Since Vučić has announced that he does not have the strength to carry out privatization, and it is, in his opinion, the only solution, there is every chance that the practice of non-transparent, unplanned and wanton state and parastate aid will more or less continue, and that the administration will use that money without public excuses to spend on necessary and unnecessary reinforcements. At the same time, not only will it be difficult for Zvezda and Partizan to reach the end of the Euroleague, but there is also the question of whether, due to finances that depend on the goodwill of politicians, they will stay in the competition at all.

Case study: TV Kikinda in the election campaign

Propaganda at the expense of citizens

During the election campaign, the only Kikinda television reported only on the activities of progressives in public and party roles, while it did not dedicate a single second of its program to the presentation of opposition candidates from Kikinda. That same television, as expected, survives thanks to money from the public budget, primarily the city budget

Football year 2023

A weak league and a slightly better national team

Today's football scene is in many ways reminiscent of that time of doom and gloom in the nineties. Megalomaniacal and overpriced new stadiums, nor millions of investments in arrogant projects by Zvezda's and Partizan's administrations, and least of all bribing hooligan groups, do not help here.
