Состав сборной
Следующие игроки были вызваны в состав сборной главным тренером Младеном Крстаичем для участия в товарищеских матчах против сборной Марокко (23 марта 2018) и сборной Нигерии (27 марта 2018).
Игры и голы приведены по состоянию на 14 ноября 2017 года:Игры против стран бывшей Югославии
Сборная Сербии редко встречается со сборными из стран экс-Югославии из-за напряжённых отношений между странами.
Игры против сборной Хорватии являются самыми сложными с точки зрения безопасности как зрителей, так и спортсменов. Впервые после войны между двумя странами сборные встретились в отборочном турнире ЧЕ-2000: 18 августа 1999 года игра в Белграде завершилась вничью 0:0, а игра в Загребе 9 октября 1999 года также вничью — 2:2[7]. В следующий раз сборные встретились в отборочном турнире ЧМ-2014: 22 марта 2013 года Хорватия выиграла 2:0 в Загребе, а 6 сентября 2013 года в Белграде была зафиксирована ничья 1:1[8].
Первая игра против сборной Словении произошла на ЧЕ-2000: Словения, ведя к 57-й минуте матча 3:0, после удаления Синиши Михайловича пропустила 3 мяча за 6 минут — окончательный счёт 3:3[9]. Следующие игры сборных пришлись на отборочный турнир ЧМ-2002: 2 игры со счётом 1:1 в Любляне и Белграде.
Рекорды
К:Википедия:Статьи без источников (тип: не указан)- Начиная с 2 сентября 2006 года и до 11 августа 2010 года, сборная Сербии, отыграв 16 матчей, не проигрывала домашние игры. Первый проигрыш в Белграде был от сборной Греции в товарищеском матче.
- Первый гол за сборную Сербии забил 16 августа 2006 года Данко Лазович на 41 минуте первого матча сборной со сборной Чехии.
- Самую длинную беспроигрышную серию игр из 12 матчей отыграл Игор Дуляй (первый матч 16 августа 2006 с Чехией, последний — 24 марта 2007 с Казахстаном).
- Самая длинная серия побед — 5 матчей, с 28 марта по 19 августа 2009 года, под руководством Радомира Антича.
Скандалы
- 12 октября 2010 года на седьмой минуте был отменён отборочный матч чемпионата Европы 2012 года со сборной Италии, проходивший в Генуе, из-за беспорядков, устроенными сербскими болельщиками. В своём решении 29 октября УЕФА засчитала сборной Сербии поражение 0:3 и постановила, что сербская сборная следующий отборочный матч Евро-2012 на своём поле (со сборной Северной Ирландии 25 марта 2011 года) проведёт без зрителей, а также пригрозила дисквалификацией стадиона на две игры, если в ближайшие два года беспорядки повторятся[10].
- Игра против сборной Албании в отборочном турнире ЧЕ-2016 14 октября 2014 года была остановлена из-за беспорядков с политической подоплёкой — в конце первого тайма с трибун был запущен радиоуправляемый мини-вертолёт с плакатом, где был изображён албанский герб на фоне карты Великой Албании и надписью «Автохтонность»[11]. Защитник сербов Бранислав Иванович сорвал флаг, чем вызвал гнев албанских футболистов. Между игроками завязалась потасовка. После того, как в избиении албанских игроков захотели поучаствовать фанаты, высыпавшие на поле, главный арбитр встречи Мартин Аткинсон увёл команды в подтрибунное помещение[12]. Сербии в итоге засчитали техническое поражение со счётом 0:3. Напряжённость между сербами и албанцами вызвана Косово: бывшая частью Сербии провинция, населённая преимущественно албанцами, объявила о независимости в 2008 году.

4. Рейтинг сборных ФИФА – The rankings were introduced in December 1992, and eight teams have held the top position, of which Brazil have spent longest ranked first. A points system is used, with points being awarded based on the results of all FIFA-recognised full international matches, the ranking system was most recently revamped after the 2006 World Cup, with the first edition of the new series of rankings issued on 12 July 2006. The most significant change is that the rankings are now based on results over the four years instead of the previous eight years. Alternative systems have been devised, such as the World Football Elo Ratings, based on the Elo rating system used in chess and Go, ranking teams. In December 1992, FIFA first published a listing in order of its member associations to provide a basis for comparison of the relative strengths of these teams. From the following August, this list was more frequently updated, significant changes were implemented in January 1999 and again in July 2006, as a reaction to criticisms of the system. Membership of FIFA has expanded from 167 to 209 since the rankings began, the ranking formula used from August 1993 until December 1998 was very simplistic and quickly became noticed for its lack of supporting factors. When the rankings were introduced, a team received one point for a draw or three for a victory in FIFA-recognised matches – much the same as a traditional league scoring system. This was a simplistic approach, however, and FIFA quickly realised that there were many factors affecting international matches. In order to meet the objective of fairly and accurately comparing the strengths of various national sides. In January 1999, FIFA introduced a system of ranking calculation. For the ranking all matches, their scores and importance were all recorded, only matches for the senior mens national team were included. Separate ranking systems were used for other national sides such as womens and junior teams. The womens rankings were, and still are, based on a procedure which is a version of the Football Elo Ratings. FIFA announced that the system would be updated following the 2006 World Cup. The evaluation period was cut from eight to four years, goals scored and home or away advantage are no longer taken into account, and other aspects of the calculations, including the importance attributed to different types of match, have been revised. The first set of revised rankings and the methodology were announced on 12 July 2006. This change is rooted at least in part in widespread criticism of the ranking system

In 1002, the duchy was formally recognized as part of the Holy Roman Empire, becoming the Kingdom of Bohemia in 1198 and reaching its greatest territorial extent in the 14th century. Following the Battle of Mohács in 1526, the whole Crown of Bohemia was gradually integrated into the Habsburg Monarchy alongside the Archduchy of Austria, the Protestant Bohemian Revolt against the Catholic Habsburgs led to the Thirty Years War. After the Battle of the White Mountain, the Habsburgs consolidated their rule, reimposed Roman Catholicism, the Czech part of Czechoslovakia was occupied by Germany in World War II, and was liberated in 1945 by the armies of the Soviet Union and the United States. The Czech country lost the majority of its German-speaking inhabitants after they were expelled following the war, the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia won the 1946 elections. Following the 1948 coup détat, Czechoslovakia became a one-party communist state under Soviet influence, in 1968, increasing dissatisfaction with the regime culminated in a reform movement known as the Prague Spring, which ended in a Soviet-led invasion.
