See you in Montevideo ( or in fact Paraćin - Serbia)

 
On the Serbian groundhop Seven we visited the  'Green Hell' in Paraćin , home of Serbian 4th division team - FK Jedinstvo Paraćin, (Gradski stadium) we were told it had been used in a Serb film about the 1930 World Cup and that is the reason the stands were painted the blue from the Uruguayan flag.
 

The Serbs made a film about qualifying for 1930 World Cup in 2010,  - that was filmed mainly in Tenerife , the film was well acclaimed - " Montevideo, God Bless You!"
 

In 2014 a sequel was made, a comedy this time - "See you in Montevideo"  and some of the match scenes were filmed in Paraćin.
