This is not good! Partizan suffered a big debacle in the derby, the fans served the coach and destroyed their team’s cabin
This is a really brutal failure. Partizan Belgrade lost 0:4 to Crvena Zvezda in the ninth round of the Serbian Super League, still on home soil. Fans couldn’t stomach the loss against their old rival and subsequently vandalised their team’s cabin.

- Partizan Belgrade lost 0:4 to Crvena Zvezda in the ninth round of the Serbian Super League
- Fans couldn’t swallow the loss against their old rivals and then demolished their team’s booth
- Partizan’s coach Aleksandar Stanojevic arrived in front of journalists cut
Partizan Belgrade are experiencing a truly horrific start to the new competition year. It has played seven games in the Serbian Super League so far, but is only ninth in the table with 11 points.
The Belgrade club’s form in the last few games has been downright dismal. In July, they crashed out of the Champions League qualifiers against Dynamo Kiev, and a month later they fell short against Lugano in the Europa League qualifiers.
He could at least have saved his European Cup appearance at the end of August, but in the Conference League qualification Partizan lost to Ghent in the next double-header.
After that came a league draw with Vojvodina, a loss to OFK Belgrade and an explosion in the derby with Crvena Zvezda. And that was the last straw for Partizan fans. They made their dissatisfaction really hard after the derby.
As already described by the well-known site The Athletic, the fans destroyed their team’s cabin and the coach Aleksandar Stanojevic also took it.
Let’s not make a spectacle of it, said Stanojevic at the press conference
Stanojevic then came to the press conference among the journalists cut up, with plasters on his face. He has reportedly resigned as Partizan’s head coach, but the club has not yet officially confirmed anything.
“I came to the press conference with plasters, but there is no reason to make a spectacle of it. There was nothing more, no fight, no physical conflict. Let’s not make unnecessary drama, the disgruntled fans only broke the glass,” Stanojevic said after the game.
“I apologize to all Partizan fans, I apologize for the way we lost the game. I take responsibility and it’s mine, the worst defeat in my career. It’s my fault how we lost the match. It’s a shame for all of us. And for me the biggest one,” added the Partizan coach.
