The name Red Star was assigned after a long discussion. early ideas shortlisted by the delegates included “ People ‘s Star ”, “ Blue Star ”, “ Proleter “, “ Stalin “, “ Lenin “, etc. [ 3 ] The initial frailty presidents of the Sport Society – Zoran Žujović and Slobodan Ćosić – were the ones who assigned it. [ 4 ] Red Star was soon adopted as a symbol of serbian nationalism within Yugoslavia and a clean initiation which remains the area ‘s most popular to this day. [ 5 ] On that day, Red Star played the first football meet in the golf club ‘s history against the foremost Battalion of the Second Brigade of KNOJ ( People ‘s Defence Corps of Yugoslavia ) and won 3–0. Red Star ‘s beginning successes involved small steps to recognition. In the first fifteen years of universe, Red Star won one serbian championship, six Yugoslav championships, five Yugoslav Cups, one Danube Cup and reached the semi-finals of the 1956–57 european Cup. Some of the greatest players during this period were Kosta Tomašević, Branko Stanković, Rajko Mitić, Vladimir Beara, Bora Kostić, Vladica Popović, Vladimir Durković and Dragoslav Šekularac.

[ 6 ] The second gear leg is luminary for being the last couple played by the Busby Babes : on the hark back flight to England the be day, the plane crashed in Munich, resulting in the deaths of 23 people, including eight Manchester United players .
During the Miljan Miljanić era, Red Star won four Yugoslav championships, three Yugoslav cups, two Yugoslav supercups, one Yugoslav league cup, one Mitropa Cup and reached the semi-finals of the 1970–71 european Cup.

In both matches, Barcelona were the better team and Red Star was eliminated. signally, when Barça ‘s Diego Maradona scored his second finish in front of approximately 100,000 spectators at the Marakana, the Belgrade audience were indeed aroused about the goal that flush the loyal Belgrade fans applauded Maradona. [ 8 ] Gojko Zec returned to the team in 1983, finding lone one player from the champions generation he was coaching back in 1977, Miloš Šestić. Zec similarly repeated the clubhouse ‘s wallow from his previous mandate by winning the championship immediately upon his arrival. Zec would later leave the club in a controversial Šajber’s case -style scandal which was the solution of irregularities in the 1985–86 temper .
After Zec left in 1986, there were big changes in the club. The management of the club, run by Dragan Džajić and Vladimir Cvetković, began to build a team that could compete with some of the most herculean european sides. During that summer, Velibor Vasović became coach and the english was strengthened by acquiring a act of talented youthful players, among whom Dragan Stojković and Borislav Cvetković stood out. In the inaugural season that started with penalty points, Red Star focused on the european Cup and achieving good results. In 1987, a five-year plan was developed by the club with the only finish being to win the european Cup. All that was planned was finally achieved. On the clubhouse ‘s birthday in 1987, it started. real Madrid were defeated at the Marakana. From that day through to March 1992, Red Star enjoyed the best period of success in its history.

By that meter, Red Star had 18 goals in 8 matches, whereas the french champions had 20. consequently, the hundredth european competing final was expected to be a spectacle of offense. however, both Petrović and Raymond Goethals opted for defensive structure and the match settled down into a war of attrition. After a 120-minute match and alone few chances on both sides, the match was decided following the penalty gunfight. After respective minutes of nerve-racking penalties, one of Marseille ‘s players, Manuel Amoros, missed a penalty, and Darko Pančev converted his punishment to bring the european Cup to Yugoslavia for the first meter.

UEFA changed the format of the rival that year and the 1991–92 european Cup was the first to be played in a format with two groups each having four teams. Despite the disadvantage of playing its dwelling games abroad, Red Star still did well and finished second base in the group behind Sampdoria. In domestic rival, main rivals Hajduk Split and Dinamo Zagreb left the league, barely as all the other clubs from Croatia, Macedonia and Slovenia did, and the championship in Yugoslavia that was cut in size was played on the border of notice of regulations around the begin of the Bosnian War. At the end of May, the United Nations had the area under sanctions and dislodged Yugoslav football from the international scene. The Breakup of Yugoslavia, the Yugoslav Wars, the inflation and the UN sanctions have hit Red Star hard.

In the 2006–07 UEFA Champions League qualifying rounds, Red Star was barely eliminated ( 3–1 on aggregate ) by the lapp Milan side which ultimately won that class ‘s competition. furthermore, the campaign in Group F of the 2007–08 UEFA Cup was a big disappointment, particularly given that the first base game against Bayern Munich was a sensational last-minute passing ( by a score of 2–3 in Belgrade ).
