Stevan Ostojić (Serbian Cyrillic: Стеван Остојић; 20 August 1941 – 15 May 2022)[1] was a Serbian professional footballer who played as a striker.[2]
Born just a few months following the start of World War II in Yugoslavia to father Spasoje who worked as a railroad engineer, young Ostojić grew up in Subotica where the family moved during the war.[3] He began playing football during the mid-1950s when his older brother Ivan who already played with OFK Subotica took him to a training session.[3]
International career
On the national level, Ostojić earned two caps and made his debut for Yugoslavia in an April 1964 friendly match against Bulgaria. His other international match came over seven years later, when he replaced Jovan Aćimović at half time in a friendly against Mexico.[4]
