Aleksandar Krunić and Ana Danilina are competing for a place in the finals of the Australian Open.

This gesture was in support of Serbian footballer Dejana Stefanović, who recently underwent surgery.

Support for Dejana Stefanović

Dejana Stefanović suffered a significant injury, tearing her cruciate ligaments, which will sideline her for six months. Krunić’s choice to wear the jersey reflects her commitment to supporting fellow athletes during challenging times.

A New Chapter in Stefanović’s Career

  • Stefanović recently joined Crvena Zvezda after transferring from Brighton.
  • Throughout her career, she has also played for Valerenga, Avaldsnes, and ASPTT Albi.
  • She has been part of the Serbian national team since 2018.

Australian Open Semifinals

As they advance in the tournament, both players are focused on achieving success, despite the pressure of the stage and the personal challenges present in the sports community.
