Pero Janjić

In 1990 he had another stint as a head coach of Yugoslavia, finishing fourth at the 1990 World Championship. This was Yugoslavia's last major tournament prior to break up of the country.

In 1990, he moved from Banja Luka to Zagreb where he lives today.

In 1980, he once again took over his hometown club Borac which were bottom of the table. Janjić made a complete turnaround and led them to another Yugoslav championship title in 1981.

Janjić then took over Switzerland national team which was at the time struggling at the third tier World Championship C Group. Under Janjić's leadership, Switzerland's first success was promotion to the second tier B Group. Switzerland then reached the finals of the B Group tournament in 1979, thus securing promotion both to A group and to 1980 Olympics. Due to personal reasons, Janjić had to return home to Yugoslavia and thus didn't get a chance to lead Switzerland at the Olympic tournament.

As a coach, Janjić won the 1976 European Cup with Borac Banja Luka which is still to this day one of the greatest sporting triumphs of clubs from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Janjić also led Borac Banja Luka to four Yugoslav championships in 1974, 1975, 1976 and 1981. He was hailed as a national hero in Switzerland for securing a historic first qualification of the national team to the 1980 Olympics.

In 1976, Janjić managed Yugoslavia national team at 1976 Olympics in Montreal where they finished fifth. Yugoslavia missed the Olympic final by just one goal in the final group match.
