I think Alan Kardec father of Spritism was right when he told world there is no death (in terms of utter destruction and total termination of existence). There is just incarnation (taking material flesh form) and de-carnation (stripping from flesh, taking pure spiritual form or free spirit from chains of matter).
Serbian football player and coach Radomir Antic decarnated yesterday at age of 71. Radomir was born in 1948 in town of Uzice in West Serbia. He began his career in local club "Sloboda" in 1967. One year later he moved to Belgrade to join Partizan, club which was in his heart ever since. He was Champion of Yugoslavia with Partizan. After departure from his favorite club he played for Fenerbahce, Saragosa and finally for Luton Town in England. He ended his career as player in 1984.
After one year of pause he started his great and even more successful career as football coach. First he was on bench of Partizan and won two titles in Yugoslavia in 1986 and 1987. His biggest success was however winning double with Atletico Madrid in 1996 (generation with player Milinko Pantic). It's not easy to be in front of Real Madrid and Barcelona in Spain, it's even harder to win double. He was rare person who managed Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid 3 the biggest clubs in Spain.
He was also coach of national squad of Serbia in World Cup in South Africa 2010 and won Germany in group stage. However we lost other two games and got eliminated from competition. We could proceed to next stage if referee was more righteous. He was one of few Serbian coaches valued high abroad. As far as I know last few years he was coach of football club in China. Last 3 months he was in hospital and unfortunately didn't win that game. His grand sons are running playing football in Spain.
Radomir never hide his love for Partizan and he was always ready when he was in Belgrade to come and watch his favorite club or to visit his friends there.
Rest in peace Radomir, all Partizan and Atletico Madrid fans will remember you forever!
