History of Red Star Belgrade
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The history of Red Star Belgrade's football team began with its establishment by a committee of Yugoslav Communists on 4 March 1945. Slobodan Penezić supervised the committee which founded Red Star, composed largely of communist veterans from World War II.[1] This was in contrast to Partizan, as it was founded by high-ranking generals and members of the Yugoslav People's Army.[1]
