AFI | American Football | 04/26/2025

The Vukovi Belgrade and Kragujevac Wild Boars clash on Saturday, April 26 in Belgrade in a high-stakes duel that doubles as both a CEFL Championship opener and a pivotal Serbian league matchup.

Vukovi’s quest for CEFL redemption
Belgrade, the CEFL’s most decorated team with six titles, seeks to reclaim continental glory after a 2023 first-round exit. Domestically, their only 2023 loss came against the Wild Boars, but they avenged it twice en route to the national title. With quarterback Shazzon Mumphrey at the helm, Vukovi aims to leverage their playoff pedigree and home-field advantage.

Wild Boars aim to reverse early struggles
Kragujevac, the 2006 CEFL champions, stumbled in their 2025 Serbian league opener, heightening urgency for this rivalry game. Despite last season’s playoff loss to Graz, the Boars’ 2024 upset of Vukovi proves their capability. QB Isaiah Green and RB Zachery Smith must ignite an offense that sputtered in Week 1.

Key players to watch
Mumphrey’s poise under pressure will test Kragujevac’s secondary, while Green’s dual-threat dynamism and Smith’s power running could exploit Vukovi’s untested defense.

Stakes beyond CEFL
This game impacts both teams’ Serbian league standings, adding layers to their historic rivalry. For Vukovi, a win asserts domestic dominance and CEFL resurgence. For the Boars, it’s a chance to reset their season and revive underdog magic. With pride and playoff positioning on the line, expect a physical, emotional battle in Belgrade.
