Thought this worth posting here. Panathinaikos hosted Olympiacos a few weeks back with Stamenic an unused sub. He would have seen it all with the Belgrade derby anyway.

He’s even experienced one of football’s most intimidating rivalries, the Derby of the Eternal Enemies, from his time at Greek Super League club Panathinaikos.

Barbarouses said Olympiacos supporters set off a stun grenade as the Panathinaikos team bus pulled up to the stadium.


“There was a walkway above us and they obviously saw our big green bus arrive and they threw a flash-bang grenade right next to our bus as we were getting into the changing rooms,” he said.

I was luckily 10 metres away from it but I couldn’t hear anything for about 10 minutes. My ears were ringing but some of the boys, right up until kickoff, were struggling to hear and a bit disorientated.

“It’s just a whole other world. Kickoff was delayed because of flares being lit as we shook hands. You couldn’t see a thing.
