Market31 Aug 2026

Uroš Stojanović puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at OFK Beograd, and it is not being withdrawn.

Balša Popović keeps OFK Beograd in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Squad31 Aug 2026

OFK Beograd lose Ethan Hoard

16 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Match29 Aug 2026

4 matches without a win for OFK Beograd

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around OFK Beograd are no longer polite ones.

Market31 Aug 2026

Ismael Casas is a OFK Beograd player

The fee is $410.0K, the contract is signed, and the argument about whether he is worth it can begin. IMT drove a hard bargain; time will say who won it.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Balša Popović in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at OFK Beograd this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match29 Aug 2026

OFK Beograd come up short against Crvena Zvezda

Crvena Zvezda left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Saša Marković gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

Yegor Prutsev runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 15. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match19 Aug 2026

The cup run ends for OFK Beograd

2‑3 against Spartak Subotica, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

Market24 Aug 2026

Mouhamadou Fall puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at OFK Beograd, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Edmund Addo in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at OFK Beograd this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

One of those days for Edmund Addo

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.96, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Edmund Addo gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Tayrell Wouter runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 19. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Jovan Šljivić in the eights

A performance of 8.46 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Aleksa Cvetković turns it into his own net

Nobody's fault and entirely his: a goal that goes into the book with his name against it and nothing about it intended. OFK Beograd deserved better, and so did he.

Match22 Aug 2026

Honours even between OFK Beograd and Radnicki 1923

1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad17 Aug 2026

A one-man rearguard from Balša Popović

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Nobody could get near Yegor Prutsev

Successful dribbles: 25. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Tempers go at OFK Beograd

Edmund Addo was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad17 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Milan Rodić

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Match15 Aug 2026

Mladost Lucani take the points off OFK Beograd

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Market17 Aug 2026

The Miloš Pantović talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. OFK Beograd know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Squad10 Aug 2026

A day Miloš Pantović will not forget

3 goals in one game. The first was taken well, the second was taken greedily, and by the third the crowd were simply waiting for him to get the ball.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Tempers go at OFK Beograd

Miloš Pantović was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

A masterclass from Miloš Pantović

Marked 9.92 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Match8 Aug 2026

OFK Beograd find a way past TSC

TSC made OFK Beograd work for it, but the scoreboard read 3‑2 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Jovan Šljivić runs at them all day
