The club is known by different names worldwide. According to a recent Gallup poll, Red Star is by far the most popular club in Serbia.
Red Star is the only Serbian club that has won a UEFA competition, winning the European Champions Cup 1991 in Bari, Italy. The same year in Tokyo, Japan the club won the Intercontinental Cup. Red Star lost the European Super Cup finals that year to the Cup Winners' Cup champion, Manchester United. The club also made the final of the UEFA Cup in 1979, losing to Borussia Mönchengladbach. Red Star also has won a record 24 national league titles.
Red Star was founded by students from Belgrade University in 1945. Red Star fans are called Delije (Serbian Cyrillic: Делије). A rough English translation might be "courageous and brave young men" or simply "The Heroes". In contrast with other teams' reliance on imported footballers, Red Star have had many homegrown superstars, such as Dejan Savićević, Vladimir Jugović, Sinica Mihajlović, Darko Pančev, Dejan Stanković, Nemanja Vidić, and Dragan Stojković.
The Stadion Crvena Zvezda has a capacity of 51,538 and is the largest stadium in the country, due to its former capacity of over 100,000 the stadium is commonly called "Marakana" after the famous Brazilian stadium.

There in no red star on any of these flags except that one from Niš. "Red Star" is a Communist symbol and name, but all we see here are some medieval kings, crosses, Byzantine tetragrams, commanders from the First World War and other Royalist material.
