Red Star’s best yet

U svom najboljem izdanju dosadašnje sezone, Zvezda je na domaćem terenu savladala izraelski Makabi rezultatom 83:58. Prednost je prelazila +30, u trećoj četvrtini za pamćenje.

In a match seen as the perfect example of how to play, Red Star defeated Maccabi by 83:58. The advantage, which rose up to 31pts in the 3rd quarter, was undeniable and thanks to an amazingly energetic offense and a strong defense, the winner was obvious after the first twenty minutes.  Hopes are high for the next match in Belgrade, against Real Madrid.

The always necessary daily dose of inspiration. To me, it is these boys. Serbia’s waterpolo National Team. Aside from athletic inspiration, the Dolphins represent an example of commitment, dedication and hard work that really does pay off.

I took this image last winter, on the European Championship, played right here in Belgrade. On which, Serbia won… You’ve guessed it, gold.

Srpski igrači dominiraju Evroligom

As every week, Euroleague listed up this round’s top 10 moves. It’s not surprising that most of the list was dominated by Serbian players, including the first place that belongs to Miloš Teodosić .

I always enjoy seeing the varied conditions in which people show off their sporting skills. Sometimes it’s an insane pitch in the middle of nowhere, or maybe a mini-island, dedicated to football alone. Today’s inspiration, the 5-A pitches of Manchester.

The new and improved version of the site

Some of the better known features, such as multilingual posts are here to stay, this time with a more comprehensive layout, a cleaner look, and most important of all, a brand new name. 

Since this is a blog written by someone who spends most of her time around a pitch, closer to the sidelines, and since blogging lets me take all of you there with me… Sideline it is. 

It’s an absolute pleasure (and an occasional torturous wifi moment, if we’re being honest), to bring anyone to the sidelines of a sporting event, willing to take a look, and potentially  see a match or a team from a slightly different angle than expected.

As always, your support through likes, shares and follows means a lot, so I thank you. 

Now buckle up, people. We’re just getting started.

Sa ponosom vam predstavljam novu verziju bloga

Sve je novo, počevši od imena, do izgleda. Prepoznatljivi deo višejezičnih tekstova ostaje, iz dobro poznatih razloga. Kako bi što više čitalaca imalo prilike da razume tekst i tako pogleda sportski događaj iz još neke perspektive.

Kao što znate, ovaj blog pišem najčešće iz ugla blizu aut-linije, pa je bilo i logično da stranicu preimenujem shodno tome. Sideline je linija auta. Drugačije rečeno, prostor najbliži samom terenu.

Imati mogućnost, da prenesem makar deo doživljaja sa neke utakmice čitaocima iz udaljenih delova sveta, onima koji o srpskom sportu znaju malo, ili ljudima koji prosto nisu imali vremena da odu na neki od mečeva, fenomenalan je osećaj i zahvalna sam vam na pažnji koju posvećujete sadržajima ovog bloga.

U budućnosti se nadam mnogo većim pričama i bližem pogledu na stvari, koji ćemo deliti zajedno. Ne mrdajte, na dobrom smo putu. 🙂

Red Star beats Barcelona by 76:65 in a match filled with ups and downs. This victory comes on the same day as the confirmation of the F4 Tournament being played in Belgrade in 2018. A victory lead by the joint efforts of individuals that made up for some general errors. Tonight’s MVP is one of the youngest. Twenty one year-old Marko Guduric scored as many points, with a PIR of 30.
