Iako sam vrlo lo\u0161 u fubalu, i kao Italijan i kao aktivni promatra\u010d politi\u010dke scene, vremenom sve vi\u0161e pa\u017enje obra\u0107am na povezanost fudbala i dru\u0161tva. Mnogi analiti\u010dari vide sport kao pouzdan indikator nacionalnog karaktera i mno\u0161tvo istra\u017eivanja se upravo odnosi na fudbal na Balkanu. Sociolozi su se fokusirali na ulogu \u201ehuligana\u201c u podsticanju nasilja tijekom devedesetih, kao i na povezanost fudbala i dr\u017eavne dinamike koja je dovela do raspada Jugoslavije. O ovoj temi postoji \u010dak i knjiga italijanskog novinara (Gigi Riva, \u201eL'ultimo rigore di Faruk\u201c, koja pri\u010da o proma\u0161enom penalu Faruka Had\u017eibegi\u0107a, sarajevskog kapitena koji je predvodio jugoslavensku reprezentaciju u \u010detvrtfinalnoj utakmici protiv Argentine, 1990. godine na svjetskom prvenstvu u Italiji).<\/p>\n

Gledaju\u0107i posljednje utakmice BiH reprezentacije protiv Italije, Nizozemske, i pogotovo Sjeverne Irske u nesretnom play-offu Eura 2020, nisam mogao zaobi\u0107i poredbu sa politi\u010dkom scenom u BiH. Kako je mogu\u0107e, upitao sam se, da ekipa sa toliko sjajnih igra\u010da, koji su se dokazali u najve\u0107im evropskim klubovima, ne mogu zajedno do\u0107i do pobjede?<\/p>\n

Name\u0107e se isto pitanje i o odnosima izme\u0111u BiH i njene dijaspore. Igra\u010di poput D\u017eeke, Pjani\u0107a, Kruni\u0107a i Luli\u0107a (a to su samo neki koji su ostvarili uspje\u0161ne karijere u Italiji prethodnih godina) su primjeri najboljih igra\u010da, onih sa najve\u0107im potencijalom, koji su prona\u0161li uspjeh izvan granica Bosne i Hercegovine. Naime, ovo je izvrsno i za njih i za imid\u017e Bosne i Hercegovine, ali kako to da ti isti ne mogu biti jednako uspje\u0161ni kada se vrate u Bosnu i Hercegovinu? \u0160ta nedostaje? Ovaj paradoks tako\u0111er pokazuje rizik EU integracija bez unutra\u0161njih reformi: u slu\u010daju da Bosna i Hercegovina sutradan pristupi EU, svi najbolji igra\u010di bi automatski oti\u0161li, no ko bi onda investirao u budu\u0107nost novih generacija? Ovo razmi\u0161ljanje mo\u017ee se primijeniti i na \u0161kole, poduzetnike i univerzitete.<\/p>\n

Ako postoji pouka koju mo\u017eemo izvu\u0107i iz fudbala, to je da je tim ne\u0161to ve\u0107e i zna\u010dajnije od njegovih \u201ekonstitutivnih igra\u010da\u201c. Ekipa je mnogo vi\u0161e od 11 osoba na terenu, trenera na klupi. Uspje\u0161an tim je ponajprije grupa ljudi sa istom vjerom u uspjeh i spremno\u0161\u0107u da u\u010de iz svojih gre\u0161aka, te da u sebi ponovno probude \u017eelju da idu dalje.<\/p>\n

Uloga u ujedinjavanju tima zasigurno pripada trenerima, a u slu\u010daju dr\u017eava, nacionalnim vo\u0111ama. O\u010digledno je da je BiH multicentri\u010dno dru\u0161tvo, sa mno\u0161tvom razli\u010ditih tradicija, koje se mo\u017ee razvijati samo kada se lideri odlu\u010de da mora do\u0107i do promjene za sva\u010dije dobro. Niti jedan tim ne mo\u017ee pobijediti samo sa dobrom odbranom ili sa samo par izvanrednih napada\u010da ili samo sa odli\u010dnim veznim redom. Pobjedonosnom timu je potreban sklad na svim dijelovima terena, svi igra\u010di me\u0111usobno moraju vjerovati i pomagati jedni drugima. To je upravo definicija vodstva: omogu\u0107iti onima koji vas prate sve najbolje u skladu sa njihovim mogu\u0107nosti u korist cijele grupe. Pojedina\u010dna izvrsnost je dobra, ali ako nije podstaknuta cjelokupnim timskim duhom, onda postaje bezvrijedna.<\/p>\n

Znamo da je za sve ovo potrebna dobra volja, sposobnost za slu\u0161anje i pregovaranje i najbitnije od svega, vizija. Put je \u010dist: BiH ima potrebne talente, veliko srce, pametnu omladinu i va\u017ena takmi\u010denja na kojima \u0107e se natjecati. Uloga lidera je da usmjeri ovu energiju prema zajedni\u010dkom dobru, \u0161to je jedini na\u010din da se osigura dobrobit za svakog pojedinca i gra\u0111anina.<\/p>\n

Podjela je uvijek jednostavnija od ujedinjavanja i kratkoro\u010dno, oni koji dijele smatraju se va\u017enijim li\u010dnostima. No, nakon odre\u0111enog vremena ovaj pristup donosi lo\u0161e rezultate za sve, a ponajvi\u0161e za njihove pristalice.<\/p>\n

Na sljede\u0107im izborima BiH lideri i gra\u0111ani mogu birati: da li podr\u017eati zajedni\u010dki cilj razvitka i samopouzdanja, koje je najpotrebnije u vrijeme pandemija i ekonomskih recesija, ili sebe zavaravati govore\u0107i: \u201emi smo najbolje bez obzira na sve, pa \u010dak i ako na\u0161a reprezentacija gubi.\u201c<\/p>\n

Uistinu se nadam da \u0107e BiH politi\u010dari i glasa\u010di odabrati da budu istinske vo\u0111e kako bi svojim potomcima osigurali nove pobjede, jer su oni jedini koji mogu stvoriti ponos jedinstva i dati poticaj novim, generacijama koje obe\u0107avaju, za nova postignu\u0107a.<\/p>\n

BiH: from great players to a winning team<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nicola Minasi<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Although I'm extremely bad at football, both as an Italian and as an observer of political developments I have come with time to pay increasing attention to the links between football and society. Many analysts consider sports a reliable indicator of national character and a whole stream of research has developed specifically on football in the Balkans. Social scientists have focused both on the role of hooligans in mobilizing violence in the ‘90s as well as on the connections between football and national dynamics in the dissolution of Jugoslavia. An Italian journalist even wrote a book about it (Gigi Riva, L'ultimo rigore di Faruk, on the penalty missed by Faruk Had\u017eibegi\u0107, the Sarajevese captain of the Jugoslavian National Team, against Argentina at the Italia90 World Cup's quarter-finals).<\/p>\n

Watching the last international games between the BiH National Team and Italy, the Netherlands, and in particular against Northern Ireland in the unlucky play-offs of Euro2020, I could not help drawing some parallels with BiH politics. How is it possible, I wondered, that a team with such remarkable players, coveted by powerful clubs in the best European leagues, cannot create a true winning spirit?<\/p>\n

The question also applies to the relations between BiH and its diaspora. Players like Dzeko, Pjanic, Krunic and Lulic (just to mention those who succeeded in Italy in recent years) are examples of the best and brightest leaving the country, finding success abroad. This is good both for them and for the image of BiH, but how come that once they are back home, the same people cannot be as successful? What is lacking here? This paradox also shows the risks of EU integration without internal reforms: if BiH entered the EU tomorrow all the best players would leave automatically, but then who would invest in the new generations? This reasoning can be applied to schools, entrepreneurs and universities as well…<\/p>\n

If there is one lesson football can give, is that a team is something more than its \u201econstituent players\u201c. A team is something more than the 11 persons in the field, the trainer and the bench. A successful team is first of all a group of people with the confidence to succeed and to learn from their mistakes and to generate the willingness to keep trying again.<\/p>\n

This unifying role, no doubt, falls with the trainer and, in the case of countries, on national leaders. BiH is clearly a multicentric society, with multiple traditions, that can flourish only when the leaders agree to make a difference for the benefit of all. No team can win only with a good defence, or with only a couple of formidable strikers, or just with a strong midfield. A winning team needs harmony in each side of the field, the players must trust each other and serve each other. This is the defining role of leadership: to allow those who follow you to take out the best of themselves to the benefit of the entire group. Individual excellence is good, but if it is not helped by good team spirit it is worth nothing.<\/p>\n

We all know that this requires good spirits, ability to listen and negotiate and, most of all, vision. The road is clear: BiH has the right talents, a big heart, bright young generations and important tournaments to play in. It is up to the leaders to mobilize this energy towards the common good, which is the only way to ensure the wellbeing of every single member and citizen.<\/p>\n

Dividing is always easier than uniting and in the short term those who divide even appear to be strong figures. However, after a short while this brings about bad results for everybody and most of all to their own people.<\/p>\n

At the next elections BiH leaders and citizens have a choice: whether to support a common goal of growth and confidence, which is as necessary as ever in times of pandemics and economic recession, or to cheat themselves saying \u201ewe are the best no matter what, even if the national team loses\u201c.<\/p>\n

I do hope BiH politicians and voters will choose to be true leaders to offer all their sons new victories, the only ones that can create the pride of being together and invite new endeavours from promising new generations.<\/p>\n
