River celebrations of FC Red Star Belgrade’s national league title marred by violent clashes with rival Serbian club fans

Triumphant jubilations by fans of the Serbian football club, which scored a fourth national title in a row this weekend, were marred by evening clashes with supporters of a rival team.
Red Star Belgrade held a massive celebration of its win in the national championship on Saturday evening. The final match is yet to take place on Tuesday, but the red-and-white club has already secured the trophy, with the other finalist, FC Partizan, too far behind on points.

The celebration, which the city allowed despite Covid-19 concerns, was held on the Sava River, with jubilating fans on bridges and boats waving fares and sending clouds of red smoke billowing over the water. A spectacular firework display at the end was supposed to be the crowning part of the event.
