Aleksandar Mitrović transferred from Anderlecht to Premier League team Newcastle.
MITROVIĆ IS A MAGPIE!The full story of Aleksandar Mitrović's switch to Newcastle Unitedhttp://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20150721/mitrovic-becomes-a-magpie_2281670_4877540
Posted by Newcastle United on Tuesday, July 21, 2015
Mitrogol signed a 5-year contract. The team's home page says, this is the 4th biggest transfer in the club's history.
Partizan was the home team at the second clash of the superliga final. On one hand it meant Grave Diggers could finally occupy Pionir Hall (only a handful of red fans were allowed this time, in a well-separated corner of the hall, surrounded by security guards and gendarmerie). On the other hand a lot of honourable guests came to see Partizan.
There was Novica Veličković...
When these two players entered, Pionir Hall exploded. They got an amazingly warm, loving welcome, that only Pionir Hall can give to its former players.
National team coach Saša Đorđević was watching the game, too, from the VIP-tribune.

The team started to warm up way before the arrival of the guests. It is always elemental.
Then the match started.
Not even one and a half minutes have passed when Lazić already got his second personal foul. Blažič hit Pavlović on the face, and when he was fouled for this, he just threw the ball to Pavlović.

The standing was 4:4. Pavlović, who was burning on 10 000°C already at this point made a giant block - as a result, referees whistled free throw for Zvezda. Not much later Đumić also got his second personal foul (barely 3 minutes passed from the game...). The two teams had a nip-and-tuck game. We switched the standing from 8:11 to 12:11. From 12:15 we equalized with Pavlović’s amazing 3-pointer (15:15), and we even took back the lead (17:15). Duško Vujošević got into heated debates with the referees every now and then, while Andrić was fouled after Kalinić hit him (!!!). Milosavljević was also hit inside Zvezda’s paint, but none of the referees seemed to be interested. Even at this point it was clear we’d have a tough game against a 8-member team. We finished the first quarter with 17:19.
With lots of love, from the fans of Partizan
In the second quarter Zvezda switched the pace of defense to "brutal", while referees kept on giving us fouls. Still we switched from 17:21 with blood, sweat and the scores of Tepić and Mačvan to 22:21, when something happened. There was an upheaval at Zvezda’s bench.
As we got to know, an angry Partizan-fan threw a chair to Jović. Maybe the target wasn’t actually Jović (or maybe he indeed was), nevertheless the chair hit the Zvezda-player’s head. Jović was surrounded immediately by medicals and finally he left the court and walked to the locker-room with an icebag on his head.
Players were a bit confused
The match could eventually continue, Pavlović equalized (23:23), but from this point on things really started to be very tough for Partizan. Referees openly whistled against us, while Zvezda-players switched to moron mode. Blažič intentionally - and brutally - pushed Milutinović to the floor (it was so clear that the referees had to give us a free throw, though they did not whistle technical foul to Blažič), then Williams smashed Dallo brutally. At this point there was no foul or free throw. But when Milutinović tried to block a Zvezda-attack, the referees didn’t just validated the score but gave an extra bonus shot to Zvezda (31:37). Mačvan reduced the difference (34:39), we finished the first half with 36:40.
Mitrović cheering for Partizan
In the half-time Bogdanović was surrounded by journalists
In the half-time break there was some terribly corny music flowing from the speakers, for the great amusement of Grave Diggers. (I do not want to get into details, as I would cross the delicate borders of political correctness - in short, everyone who knows what’s going on will laugh at it as hard as I did.)
In the third quarter we took back the lead with the scores of Tepić and Mačvan (41:40). Then Milosavljević equalized (43:43), while Zirbes was hanging on him with all his weight. Then Tepić was brutally pushed down by Kalinić. No foul, no free throw, nothing happened.
Pavlović couldn’t watch it passively. Zvezda came up for an attack, Pavlović ran up and clashed into Kalinić with full force, so much that Zvezda’s player flew out of the court with an elegant arch. Pavlović immediately got a technical foul. Then Milutinov got an offensive foul, who knows, why. Duško Vujošević complained heavily, referees gave him a technical foul as well, as an answer. After the lot of free throws Zvezda increased their advantage to 43:51, even making the 10-point difference (45:55). We finished the quarter with 51:58.
In the final part we reduced the difference to 2 points with Marinković’s fantastic 3-pointer (he could even throw an extra bonus shot) and Milutinov’s hook. This time Kalinić pushed Dallo to the ground. Dallo stood up, bent very closely to Kalinić, right into his face and whispered there what Zvezda’s player should do and with whom.
My life for a video. Or at least a gif.
The unsportsmanlike behaviour was clear, so we got a free throw. We equalized (58:58). Kalinić switched the moron mode to full force
interesting, while Blažič is this backboneless rat-alike idiot, Kalinić plays the dirty, stuck-up asshole card
Zvezda increased their difference to 58:64. We reduced it to 63:64 with the 3-pointers of Tepić and Pavlović. Zvezda wanted so much to increase the difference, but we kept on hanging on their back. Finally Mačvan equalized (69:69), Marinković was so happy with it that he jumped on Mačvan and hugged him.
Then, in the very last minute Zvezda got a free throw. The first shot got to the ring (69:70).
The second rebounded! We can still make a counter-attack!!! There are a few seconds left!
But no.
Because Kalinić jumped up, caught the rebound and smashed it into the ring with an evil grin.
69:72.
And after all these this rotten bastard ran up to the Grave Diggers after the end buzz and made it clear what a wonderful, fair-play knight sportsman he is.
May it be a terrible example for everyone.
At the other side Partizan-players were desperate.
Marinković was especially down. Here he is comforted by Milutinović
Tepić comforts Pavlović
And if it’s still not enough, the basketball association punished Partizan for that chair-throwing incident. Partizan must pay 200 000 dinars and they must play their next home court match behind closed doors.
Third match will be on Thursday, from 21:00.
The sports section of Belgian newssite L’Avenir.net asked their readers to vote for the best players of this football season. Former Partizan player, Aleksandar Mitrović, who won the Golden Bull trophy this year (this trophy goes for the best goal scorer) was also selected by the fans to the Team of 2014/15.
The first quarter was mostly about how both teams can steal the ball from the other. At the half of the quarter the standing was 5:8 - the counter was stuck in this position for at least 2 minutes. Then Milutinov and Murić decided to stop tinkering away (7:12). Milosavljević and Tepić together made a 2:6-series (11:18). Even at this point Partizan was clearly dominant. We finished the quarter with 11:20, Milutinov passed the ball into the ring with an elegant movement before the end.
Saša Pavlović had to miss out the game, as he has been struggling with an injury. He followed the game from the standings with Petar Aranitović (on his right) and Ioannis Kouzeloglou.
At a point of the second quarter we missed out numerous chances, while FMP reduced the difference to 18:22. Tepić, the conscientious power forward scored a 3-pointer (18:25). Mačvan increased our difference to 9 points (18:27). FMP was again behind us with a step (26:29), now the Captain brought a 3-pointer (26:32). The home team didn’t let themselves push back, the result was very close (32:33). Finally Milutinov scored the last basket of the first half (32:35).
In the beginning of the third quarter FMP equalized (35:35).
This was the punishment for those lots of chances we missed out as well as letting the opponent steal the ball or tackle us.
Milutinov pushed us back on the lead with a dunk, Murić followed his example (35:39). From this point on we didn’t let control out of our hands anymore. The difference kept on increasing for our benefit, first with 3 points (43:46), then with 5 (45:50) and even 7 (45:52). With this 7-point difference we finished the third part and made ourselves ready for the final.
The last quarter was routine. Mačvan scored, then assisted for Milosavljević (47:56), followed by Milutinov’s score, we crossed the 10-point-difference border (47:58). Mačvan was unstoppable (49:60). At the end FMP reduced the difference, but still Partizan gained their third victory in the Serbian superliga. Next opponent is Metalac on Saturday, from 21:00.
Fair play and handshakes at the end
Even Filip Čović got a pat on his head from Mačvan
Basketball-related news: Partizan’s former football player Aleksandar Mitrović started a charity action for KK Partizan on the net. The striker told about his plans to Alo magazine, saying that he would like to donate the basketball team with money after he learned about the club’s devastating financial situation. He also asked other former Partizan-players playing abroad to support the club. Ivan Dimitrijević has already joined, he even sent a video message.
The situation is given: tonight Serbia plays an European Championship qualifying game against Albania. (The match will be held in Partizan Stadium.) This match is not just a simple qualifying but for more reasons it's rather a war-like battle, a prestige for both teams. The Serbian national team is very seriously motivated - and after all these, Serbian national team coach Dick Advocaat announces just a few hours before the match that the most talented Serbian striker, Partizan's former and Anderlecht's current goal scorer, 20-year-old Aleksandar "Mitrogol" Mitrović will not play tonight, because he is 'overweight and needs diet'.
The following will be NSFW.
Mr. Advocaat, you're a boor. A jerk. It was something utterly self-righteous and arrogant as well as happening in the worst possible timing. It was not the first time you speak about your employers in such an off-hand manner that makes every well-meaning person vomit from disgust. Back when you got this post you spoke about Serbian stadiums, Serbian hotels and generally about Serbia in a highly revolting and outrageous manner. Even the most innocent person wanted to tear your balls off and hang them on your ears like two withered cherries. This one now about Mitrović definitely blew the fuse. You are a disgusting asshole, Mr. Advocaat, who is clearly doing it all for money and fame, without even a pinch of committment for the Serbian national football team. It seems to be beneath your dignity to stay in Serbia, you rather play the boss from the Netherlands. Mr. Advocaat, your name perfectly fits you. If you still have a bit of self-esteem, you immediately resign and disappear from Serbian football for ever. But before that offer your apology to the Serbian public.
By the way, match starts at 20:45, RTS 1 broadcasts it live.
