Shock in Leskovac
Pixi left after the defeat against Albania - the most difficult night of Serbian football
In the defeat against Albania, the hardest part is not the result itself, nor the almost lost chance to qualify for the World Cup, but the impression that the "eagles" had neither the will nor the plan on the field. After the resignation of Dragan Stojković Pixi, fans and sports workers are increasingly demanding changes in the Football Association of Serbia, warning that the problem is "much deeper than one coach".

Comment
Populist Pixie and forever the same
At major tournaments, Serbian football players are a walking example of the importance of "participating". More than that is completely impossible with a coach who was a great player and then became a coaching fraud

"Eagles" against England, Denmark and Slovenia: What Serbs expect from their footballers
The calculations are clear - we draw with England, we win against Denmark. England lose to Denmark and we beat the Slovenians and finish first in the group. We asked our fellow citizens what their expectations were from the Serbian national team at the World Cup, which begins today, and the answers varied from the above to "until Pixi is replaced, we will not get through the group stage."

WC in Qatar
Croatia - Japan 1:1 (penalties 3:1): Dear neighbors in the quarterfinals
While the Croats were celebrating their victory, our coach spoke in a general and strange way in the "House of Football" in Pazova. He's not afraid, he's not ashamed, he's proud, it's clear to him now that it couldn't have been more and better that we didn't go further because "we wouldn't have done anything there because we weren't ready". And our president doesn't even make a sound after Serbia's elimination from the World Cup, he fears failure more than anything, so he cunningly avoids meeting with those who do not bring him a medal

Stojković, be Osim
We achieved the last good result 32 years ago at the World Cup in Italy, when the coach was Ivica Osim. Then Dragan Stojković scored an untimely goal in the round of XNUMX match against Spain. He ran to celebrate his masterpiece in the arms of Osim, just as three decades later the Serbian national team members ran to hug him after the decisive goals

Pixie and 11 Stamped
"What, uh, eventual, uh... What, uh, eventual, uh... I have to go to Qatar!" - these are the words that Pixi addressed to Aca Stojanović at the press conference before the decisive match with Portugal, in which only victory directly led to the World Cup. It is also the key to understanding the success formula. We should stand behind these people, without big stories. Their talent or commitment should not be questioned
The World Cup - a culture of memory: France 1998.
The crossbar shook, a mouse was born
The championship in France was the last World Cup for all players except Dejan Stanković, and among them for the current coach Dragan Stojković. After 24 years, he is back at the World Cup and that is the only coincidence for now - unlike the national team that he led as a captain at the time, today's under his coaching does not calculate and plays for the goal anymore. We can be eliminated again in the round of XNUMX or earlier, but this time honorably and bravely
Portrait of a contemporary: Dragan Stojković Pixi
Mister Pixie and the beauty of football
As a coach, Dragan Stojković achieved great results, led the national team to the World Cup and introduced it to the elite division of the League of European Nations. And not only that - Pixi brought new optimism to our football and restored many people's faith in the national team, primarily because of the attacking football he imposed and which has been in his blood since his playing days, when he played for a goal more
