On May 24, chaos erupted at Čika Dača Stadium in Kragujevac, Serbia, when a group of masked hooligans stormed the pitch following a 2-2 draw between FK Radnički 1923 and FK Javor Ivanjica. The hooligans, believed to be affiliated with the radical 'Crveni Đavoli' fan group, violently attacked their own players instead of celebrating the result that secured their team's position in the Serbian SuperLiga. The incident left several players injured, with midfielder Miloš Ristić reportedly suffering significant facial injuries. Footage of the event showed a full-scale brawl breaking out as players and staff attempted to defend themselves against the attackers. Although Serbian Gendarmerie officers intervened, many criticized the slow response to the situation. The incident raises concerns about fan violence in football, especially as British police prepare for potential disorder during upcoming World Cup events, exacerbated by late-night bar openings permitted by the government.
