"Musketeers of the Three Kingdoms" comes from Dumas's novel, but in the 80s of the last century, many teams gave birth to trios, such as the French Iron Triangle, the Dutch Three Musketeers, the German Troika, etc., and the nicknames of the three Musketeers were awarded to the belgrade red star team in the Balkans at that time.
In 1991, Red Star Belgrade defeated the mighty Marseille team in a penalty shootout, when three of Red Star Belgrade's midfielders were amazed by Europe, the only European Championship in The history of Yugoslavia. Savičević, Pantsev and Proscinesky were collectively known as the "Three Musketeers" or "Three Musketeers in the Balkans", but the ensuing storm would cause the three players to crack and eventually each of them would be the master.
Savičević
Savičević is from the former Yugoslav Republic of Montenegro and is known as Maradona in the Balkans. Savičević is also the main player in the former Yugoslavia, in 1992, Savičević was caught by a Milan and taken away by Berlusconi, from which Savicevic began a legendary career. In the 1994 Champions League final with Barca, Savicevic performed flawlessly, firing the ball into the goal guarded by Subisaretta from an angle where it was almost impossible to score. In 1998, Savičević returned to Red Star Belgrade, but made only 3 appearances, then moved to Vienna Express, and in 2002 Savičević retired. Savicevic's national team career was not smooth, in 1990 Savichevic was too young, and his peak in 1994 Yugoslavia was banned, in 1998 Savichevic was dying of old age, this player who has the strength to compete in the European Championship and the World Cup can only helplessly become a spectator. At present, Savičević serves as the president of the Football Association of Montenegro, contributing to the cause of football in Montenegro.
Proscinsky
A midfielder from the former Yugoslav Republic of Croatia, Prossinsky was only 22 years old in 1991, which made him quickly attracted to Real Madrid. But Proscineski was plagued by injuries and left only 10 goals behind during his time at Real Madrid. Prossinsky later moved on to La Liga, including Barcelona, but none of them succeeded. Prossinski retired from Croatia's Zagreb in 2005. However, compared to the other two players, Proschinesky's national team career is brilliant, in 1998, Prosinsky won the third place with the team, but if Yugoslavia does not disintegrate, is it possible for this team to win the World Cup?
Pantsev
Pantsev is a striker in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, and Pantsev's handsome appearance has fascinated many girls. In 1992, Pantsev came to Inter Milan, but no one would have imagined that this transfer would actually be the beginning of Pantsev's nightmare, and during inter Milan, Pantsev scored a total of 3 goals. Pantsev then moved back to Germany's Leipzig and Düsseldorf teams, but his performance was so bad that in 1998 Pantsev announced his retirement, after which he had run for the presidency of the Football Association in North Macedonia but unfortunately failed.
