He claims that his words from the press conference prescribed in a negative context, completely contrary to his real words.
‘As a selector of the Serbian national team, my focus was exclusively on the ground – on players, tactics and results. I praised the atmosphere in the stadium in a sports context – due to the full tribunities and support for the national team, which is always welcome for football as a game.
However, it is logical that at that time I could not register all scandalous and offensive messages that came from the tribune, which were subsequently recorded and commented in the media. I want to clearly and unequivocally condemn any scanning that insults the Serbian people and the Serbian national team, or any other group. Such phenomena don’t have to look for on sports fields.
It is absurd that someone imputing me as ‘support extremists’ or ‘praise hatred towards your own people’. And as a player and as a selector I proved his patriotism and a sense of belonging to his people, “Dragan Stojkovic told the official page of the Football Association of Serbia.
