Partizan ‘s babies – the beginning european concluding ( 1958–1966 ) [edit ]
By the mid-1950s, the first big Partizan generation was well over its extremum. only two titles and four cups in its first 15 years of being were not enough for a baseball club of Partizan ‘s stature, ambition and popularity. In 1958, the clubhouse left room behind 13 years of playing in blue-red kits and adopted the nowadays celebrated black and white colors. The deepen in the clubhouse ‘s double and appearance was followed by radical changes in the dally police squad. The total of young players, offspring of Partizan ‘s own young person ranks known as Partizanove bebe ( The Partizan ‘s babies ), soon emerged into one of the best generations Europe ‘s ever seen. The arise of the genesis began with Milutin Šoškić, Fahrudin Jusufi, Jovan Miladinović, Velibor Vasović, Milan Galić, Ilija Mitić, Zvezdan Čebinac and Vladica Kovačević. very soon, they were joined by Lazar Radović, Velimir Sombolac, Ljubomir Mihajlović and Mustafa Hasanagić, and last Ivan Ćurković, Josip Pirmajer, Branko Rašović and Radoslav Bečejac.

After eliminating french Nantes ( 2–0, 2–2 ) and german champion Werder Bremen ( 3–0, 1–0 ) in the first two rounds, Partizan were drawn against Sparta Prague in the quarter-finals. In the inaugural peg, held in Prague, Partizan suffered a hard 4–1 kill. Although they were not given any chances in the reappearance leg in Belgrade, Partizan pulled off a convert 5–0 win in front man of 50,000 spectators, [ 27 ] and with aggregate score 6–4 qualified for the semifinals.

[ 31 ]
The brief reelect – the first european trophy ( 1976–1982 ) [edit ]

The new crisis was serious, which reflected in the results next season, when Partizan finished 13th. It took a two more seasons, but Partizan finally recovered .
memorable years ( 1982–1991 ) [edit ]
The ill-timed death of star musician Dragan Mance in a 1985 dealings collision made him into a cabaret legend. When Momčilo Vukotić, Nenad Stojković and Nikica Klinčarski were joined by Ljubomir Radanović, Zvonko Živković, Zoran Dimitrijević and Dragan Mance, another bang-up generation was formed.

In his honor, the street next to the golf club ‘s stadium in Belgrade has carried his name since 2011. [ 38 ] In 1985–86, Partizan won the entitle with a 4–0 win over Željezničar ascribable to better goal remainder than second-placed Red Star. [ 39 ] however, Yugoslav FA President Slavko Šajber decided that the entire last orotund of fixtures had to be replayed after accusations that certain results had been fixed. Partizan refused to replay its match, after which the bet on was awarded 3–0 to Željezničar, and the title was given to Red Star, who frankincense got to play in 1986–87 european Cup. Because of these events, 12 clubs started the next 1986–87 season with a deduction of six points, Partizan among them. Vardar, who had not been deducted six points, won the title and subsequently participated in 1987–88 european Cup. however, after a succession of appeals and lawsuits which finally led to Yugoslav Constitutional Court, the original final examination table of 1985–86, with Partizan as champions, was formally recognized in mid-1987. besides, the points deduction from 1986–87 season was annulled and the title was given to Partizan, who headed the table without the deduction. These controversial events prevented the genesis of Milko Đurovski, Fahrudin Omerović, Zvonko Varga, Vladimir Vermezović, Admir Smajić, Goran Stevanović, Nebojša Vučićević, Miloš Đelmaš, Srečko Katanec, Fadil Vokrri and Bajro Župić from showing their full electric potential in Europe. Partizan spent the final examination years in Yugoslavia undergoing significant organizational changes.

Most significant, Partizan players in these concluding years were Predrag Mijatović, Slaviša Jokanović, Predrag Spasić, Dragoljub and Branko Brnović, Budimir Vujačić, Vujadin Stanojković, Darko Milanič and Džoni Novak. however, this capital generation was overshadowed by their crosstown rival Red Star and its rampage through domestic league, Europe and the world. Partizan only won the 1989 national cup, 32 years after the end victory in that contest. The last trophy won before the separation of Yugoslavia was the 1989 Yugoslav Super Cup, the first and the only one organized. besides in the same season 1988/89, Partizan won the prestigious international tournament Uhrencup, which is played every year in Switzerland and to this sidereal day.

[ 40 ]
Dark ten and domestic achiever ( 1990s ) [edit ]
After the death of President Josip Broz Tito in 1980, ethnic latent hostility grew in Yugoslavia, with the follow, that in the early 1990s the Yugoslav state began to fall apart, and the civil war broke out. At the end of May in 1992, the United Nations Security Council imposed sanctions against the state, which led to political isolation, economic decline and hyperinflation of the Yugoslav iraqi dinar, and finally dislodged Yugoslav football from the international scene. The annihilation of Yugoslavia, the Yugoslav wars from 1991 to 1995, the resulting difficulties, equally well as the sanctions had hit all Yugoslav clubs intemperate. After the dissolution of SFR Yugoslavia in 1991, a newly Yugoslavia was formed out from Serbia and Montenegro and was named FR Yugoslavia. Notwithstanding, Partizan won during the war two titles in a row, in 1993 and 1994. The adjacent two championships Partizan won came in 1996 and 1997, but after only few years of peace, the Yugoslav clubs stood again ahead unmanageable times. between 1998 and 1999, peace was broken again because the situation in Kosovo worsened with continue clashes between Yugoslav security forces and the Kosovo Liberation Army. The confrontations led to the Kosovo War and finally to the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, which started four days after the 112th Red Star–Partizan bowler hat, and this without a UN Mandate ,. [ 41 ] The bombard political campaign was criticized, specially for the number of civilian casualties that resulted from the bombard. [ 42 ] By this time, Partizan won in 1999 a further backing title, again during a war. During these disruptive 1990s, the baseball club won besides respective national cups, this in 1992, 1994 and 1998. The key man for these trophies was Ljubiša Tumbaković, who became the most successful director in Partizan ‘s history. In 1997, Partizan was reintroduced to european competitions following the lift of the UEFA banish on clubs from FR Yugoslavia, but while the national team continued where they had stopped in the form of 1992, the clubs had all their results erased and were treated as the beginners in the european competitions. The decisiveness met with incomprehension among the club officials of the Yugoslav clubs. That decision will have long-run catastrophic consequences for Partizan – alternatively of enjoying the merits of its own many-year exploit, they would get harder opponents from the startle and the rival would start already in July. This ten has been marked by numerous team changes and the lap of selling the best players to richer european clubs after barely a couple of seasons of first-team football and replacing them with clean young talents. many players are credited with the successes of the nineties, such as Predrag Mijatović, Slaviša Jokanović, Savo Milošević, Albert Nađ, Dragan Ćirić, Zoran Mirković, Saša Ćurčić, Branko Brnović, Goran Pandurović, Dražen Bolić, Niša Saveljić, Damir Čakar, Budimir Vujačić, Ivan Tomić, Gjorgji Hristov, Đorđe Tomić, Ivica Kralj, Mateja Kežman and many others .

Led by Ljubiša Tumbaković, the golf club won two backing titles in a row, in 2001–02 [ 43 ] and 2002–03. [ 44 ] In Europe, Partizan did not have much success in those seasons, though the following one would become its best season in Europe after 1965–66, where it reached the 1966 european Cup concluding. The club ‘s management took the 2003 season very seriously, appointing as its new coach the early World Player of the Year Lothar Matthäus, and brought some top and experienced players like Taribo West from 1.FC Kaiserslautern, Ljubinko Drulović from Benfica and Tomasz Rząsa from Feyenoord. For the first time in its history, the clubhouse played in the UEFA Champions League after eliminating Bobby Robson ‘s Newcastle United. In Belgrade, Partizan lost by 0–1, but in replay at St James ‘ Park, they won by Ivica Iliev ‘s goal in even time and reached the group stages after a penalty shoot-out.

They are the first serbian team to qualify for the chief withdraw of this elect european club competition since its origin in 1992. Playing in Europe was reflected in the backing, and Partizan lost the title. New coach Vladimir Vermezović taken the charge of a team and he transcendence won the championship in 2005. besides, he became the alone passenger car who has managed to take the team to the knockout stage of a european competition since fresh format. That happened in the 2004–05 UEFA Cup, where Partizan reached the round-of-16. Later on, he was eliminated by CSKA Moscow, the eventual achiever of the competition. Poor results in domestic and international competitions in 2006 prompted the club ‘s officials to look for a newfangled forefront coach. First, Jürgen Röber was brought in, then later Miodrag Ješić, though neither succeeded in winning the domestic title. Although Partizan has managed to qualify for the 2006–07 UEFA Cup group stage, [ 47 ] that season was viewed as a failure .

I ‘m creditworthy because Partizan adopted black and white colors. I suggested change of shirts on behalf of the whole team, to club ‘s general secretary Artur Takač. It all happened while we were on go in South America, and when we played a friendly match against Juventus in 1957. We got as endow two sets of their jerseys, as they were delighted with our game. All the players were thrilled with the quality and color of the new uniforms, and they asked me to wear them all the time, which happened at the conclusion, and Partizan ‘s colors has remained black and blank to this day .
