  • Serbian media outlets are divided on whether to support Croatia or Bosnia and Herzegovina in an upcoming football tournament.
  • One outlet, B92, published a preview of Bosnia's group stage, highlighting football fever spreading to Serbia.
  • The article questions the allegiances of Serbian media, noting the potential for significant support for Bosnia.

Serbian media outlets appear divided on which neighboring team to support as football fever grips the region. The upcoming tournament has sparked discussion about allegiances, particularly concerning Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The portal B92 published a preview of Bosnia's group stage matches under the headline "I am from Bosnia, take me to Canada." This piece emphasized that football euphoria has crossed the Drina River, reaching Serbia and suggesting that the Bosnian team, known as the 'dragons,' will have considerable support during the World Cup.

This situation raises questions about the stance Serbian media will take. While B92's coverage suggests a potential leaning towards Bosnia, the broader question remains whether Serbian outlets will ultimately cheer for Croatia or Bosnia, reflecting complex regional dynamics and football rivalries.
