  Stadion "Kolubara", Lazarevac

att: 500

Lazarevac is one of Belgrade municipalities, and it is located in the middle course of the river Kolubara, 55 km southwest of Belgrade. The city is best known for the mining basin in the surrounding area. It is located near the main road called Ibarska magistrala, but city is not on the main road so it can be reached only with commuter public transportation.

FK Kolubara is football club based in Lazarevac. The club is founded in 1919. During the last two decades mainly plays in the second or third rank of the competition. Currently competes in the "Prva liga Srbija", but is struggling to stay in it. They play their home matches at stadium Kolubara. In this place the stadium is located since 1925, but after reconstruction in 2009 curerently have capacity of 900 seats. That makes this stadium with one stand, all seated.

 Gradski stadion, Sombor

att: 300

Sombor is situated in the far northwest of Serbia. The distance from the border crossing is 25 km to the Croatian border and 28 km to the Hungary. The city is located between the Pan European Corridors 7 and 10. Seven kilometers from the city itself is located a military airport, which is intended for future civilian traffic. The city is connected with good bus routes to major cities, like Novi Sad and Subotica. 

On this day come to the stadium and the city of Sombor was the right skill. The entire region was blocked, because dissatisfied farmers set up their tractors on roads, in a strike against some government decisions. 

Gradski stadion or city stadium is located next to bus station on the southern edge of town. This of course is not the first visit to this stadium, as you can see earlier, and frankly I was expecting that might be finished the new east stand, but it is raised the roof structure only, and nothing more. The old west stand is in a disastrous state. Nevertheless, about 300 people gathered to watch the match, which means the survival in the league. Radnički is with goal in the 47th minutes got one of the most important matches of the season. Admission was 150din (1,5€) how is writing on the posters for the game but on ticket write 100din. The explanation is that these old tickets?! Anything is possible in Serbia. Again the people managed in different ways to watch the match and not pay a ticket. In the end, is only important  love to football. We leave Sombor and go away on some new places...

OFK Beograd 5-0 FK Kolubara

Kup Srbije 2011/12, 1/8 finals
Omladinski stadion, Beograd
att: 350

Omladinski stadion (Youth stadium) is located on Belgrade's urban neighborhood Karaburma. From large stadiums is closest to the center of Belgrade. It was built in 1957 and almost from the very beginning of existence of the stadium, its official users is OFK Beograd. Omladinski stadium is multi use object. When it opened, the stadium had a capacity of around 28,000 spectators. Today, that number was reduced to 11,500 seats. Behind the east stand, as part of the stadium are auxiliary field, which is covered with artificial grass and a small pitch, also with artificial grass. The smallest east stand and lower part of the west stand is covered. Since the construction of stadium, there were no serious reconstruction. So the stadium itself is in very poor condition.
The name OFK Beograd, means Youth Football Club Belgrade. It was founded in 1911 as BSK. Since 1945 was named Metalac, and then again BSK. The club had changed its name once again in 1957 into today's OFK Beograd. The club has won five titles and four cups, nearly all that, long ago under the name of BSK.
Since I was still in Belgrade, this was an opportunity to look at the first match at this stadium. OFK Beograd easily jump over an obstacle in the Cup of Serbia called Kolubara. What to say about the game where the hosts won with five goals differences? Already in the seventh minute the first goal and the rest was all routine. Besides loyal local fans on the south stand,who are commonly known as Plava unija (Blue union), there were about sixty of visiting supporters, located on the northern stand. I was on the west stand where the admission was 400 rsd. Tickets are not specially printed for this match, but they used the same as for league matches. It is interesting that the entrance to the west stand is located at the crossroads and the other entrances are between houses and smaller streets. This is a beautifully designed stadium but he needed a total reconstruction. Urgently!
