    Beating a topped Brazil 2-1 to get to RO16 in '98 was more difficult and impressive than anything Bosnia ever pulled off

      Yugoslavia were 2 time WC Semi Finalists, and 2 time Euros Runner Up. That’s far better than anything Norway has done

        I didn’t see you were thinking of Yugoslavia. Well, if you feel like you inherit those achievements, good for you I guess

        and bosnia was just 1/6th of yugoslavia, so i dont know if they should really get full credit for all those achievements

            i mean personally i dont think any of them should really get those achievements, but technically doesnt all of yugoslavia’s footballing history legally belong to serbia?

            somewhat unrelated, but did bosnians ever make up a majority of the yugoslav team, like how the ussr team was often majority ukranian? would def make sense to give them credit if they were like 50-60% of the squad, not so much if they were like 10-20%
