About Novi Sad XI

The Novi Sad XI was a representative football team of the city of Novi Sad in Yugoslavia, entered in the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup. The competition allowed only one team from each trade-fair city, so Novi Sad took part with a combined side instead of one of its clubs.

In the 1961–62 Fairs Cup the Novi Sad XI knocked out AC Milan in the first round, drawing 0–0 at San Siro and winning 2–0 at home. In the second round it lost 2–1 to Iraklis in Thessaloniki but won the return match 9–1 in Novi Sad.

Its run ended in the quarter-finals against MTK Budapest, who won 4–1 in Novi Sad and 2–1 in Budapest.
