Contradiction[edit]

First International

As Serbia

Sweden 0 - 5 Serbia

(Edsborg-Trollhättan, October 10, 2006)

Worst defeat

As Serbia

Serbia 0 - 3 Sweden

(Novi Sad, October 6, 2006)

Look at the dates. The worst defeat occurs before the first match. Can anyone repair this? slυмgυм [ ←→ ] 18:24, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not seeing it like that. It's under "Largest Win", not "First International", looks fine. The First International as Serbia is correctly identified as Czech Republic v. Serbia, can you please check again? // laughing man 18:58, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

D'oh! I guess you're laughing at me, man. I should have looked more closely, but it's not particularly clear..the headings and sub-headings in that section are in the same format. Thanks. slυмgυм [ ←→ ] 19:36, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yugoslav records[edit]

Can we please put the records prior 1992, naturally mentioning that they are SFR Yugoslavia records? Please chek the Croatia national water polo team article and you will see how they did it, so we could do it in this and in the senior team page. Serbia is declared as a legal succesor of the SFR Yugoslavia national football team, and a majority of the stuff and players continued to play to FR Yugoslav team ( the legal predecessor of Serbia-Montenegro and Serbia football teams ), so it would be very reasonable to put in the records table the records of the old Yugoslavia. I don´t think that Croatia water polo team is the successor of Yugoslavia water polo team, and they did it anyway, but Serbia is the successor in football so, there is a strong reason to do it, beside the obvious reason of making clear the continuity in the success. I know there was already a debate about this but, putting the results and the qualifications clearly mentioning that was SFR Yugoslavia team won´t harm anybody, I think...

I checked those two sources in the lead (1, 2) and it is nowhere directly said that they have inherit all the stats and trophies from Yugoslavia. Being a "legal successor" does not mean that the records are carried over, same as the FIFA Club World Cup is a continuation/successor of the Intercontinental Cup etc., yet all the stats are separated. FIFA simply allocated the Serbian Association as a successor of the disbanded Yugoslav Federation due to administrative purposes and to avoid complications, so they could still compete at international level at the time (despite United Nations banning them from competing, since FIFA or UEFA have no power against their decision). And by the way, that article about Serbia U17 from 2011 is written by a Serbian corresponder for UEFA, this does NOT mean that this is UEFA's official statement on this matter. Furthemore, RSSSF, which is a highly reliable and reputable football statistics organization, have separated results for Yugoslavia (1), FR Yugoslavia/SCG (2), and Serbia (3).
