Only three teams have been crowned as Serbian champions since the breakup of Yugoslavia in 1992; Partizan Belgrade, Red Star Belgrade, and FK Obilić.
Whilst Partizan and Red Star have long been two of the biggest and most successful teams in the region, Obilić came out of nowhere in the 1990s, bankrolled by a notorious warlord who was wanted by Interpol.
In this documentary, HITC Sevens takes a look at one of the most controversial football clubs, and one of the most contentious league titles, of all time, along with Željko Ražnatović – better known as Arkan – who was the man behind that success.

I read about him in Franklin Foer's book years ago. The story of Arkan and Obilic was always surreal almost mythical…
This title also applies to Newcastle United.
Fun fact: Football’s run by scumbags and criminals.
"My father is a war criminal"
Great as usual, Alfie. I'm starting to think you play a 6 degrees of Hull City game to figure out your next topic. Keep those references coming in the form of such great content.
Real war criminals are Cheney Bush Blair Obama but the West are hypocrite
To ad some honesty to former Obilic players, many of them had succesful European carriers afterwards. For example midfilders Vukomanovic, Juskic, Grozdic and Sarac played for 1st Belgian league-Standard Liege, Bundesliga side-Nurnberg, 1st dutch divison-Vitesse and Ligue 1-Lens and Austria's Sturm Graz respectively. That somewhat proves that these were good players, lifted from Serbian 2nd division and proved themselves with Obilic giving them a shot when no other club wanted so.
J in Delije is not spoken like G or J in English but like Y in York (city).
What a bunch of poorly wrapped intro… Noone told you that wars were masterminded by Britain and US? Ahhh not at Wikipedia or US books ofc…
We still have club lead by criminal,maybe not war criminal but….
I remember playing against obilic in fifa

Great video, nice to see someone making videos on Serbian football
i thought this was going to be about newcastle united. my bad.
Got to say these owners are quite interesting people, better than the boring owners of the UK clubs
D-e-l-i-y-eh, that it is how you pronounce Delijje the Red Start supporters.
The "3 different national teams" Savo Milosevic represented are actually one same national team that simply changed name 3 times just as his country did.
In 1991, Red Star and Partizan had the best YUGOSLAV players (not only Serbian as you said) and in 1993 they suffered from UN sanctions that made all FR Yugoslav clubs and national team to be unable to participate in all international competitions until 1995. Why you dont read about FR Yugoslavia and the sanctions it suffered from being unable to play in EURO92 and Denmark played insted and won, until Yugoslavia playing the 1998 WC finally.
Hot takes win the battle, but useful information win the war. Well done Alfie, always been a fan of your content.
Hmm Yugoslavia couldn't stay together even after being so smol, India on the other hand still stronger than ever.
The left unites.
The right divides.
Remember you’re only a war criminal if you lose
Geez I love these videos when Alfie digs deep to research on info we don't even know about other dark side of our beautiful game.Did not know about this Club,now I do coz of this great football channel.
let's reunite YUGOSLAVIA!!!!
yugoslavian under tito was never a regime
Good guy Alfie, not forcing anyone to like Hull City at gunpoint.
I immediately knew it would be a Serbian club just by reading the video title
As we say in the Czech Republic "It's no fun watching a football game if you don't know the final result beforehand".
