The '''1970–71 [[Yugoslav First League]] season''' was the 25th season of the First Federal League ({{lang-sh|Prva savezna liga}}), the top level [[association football]] league of [[SFR Yugoslavia]], since its establishment in 1946. Eighteen teams contested the competition, which ended with [[Hajduk Split]] winning their fourth title, club's first in 16 years.

==Events and incidents==
===Week 7: Hajduk v. OFK Beograd abandoned match and subsequent street riots in Split===
The week 7 [[NK Hajduk Split|Hajduk]] vs. [[OFK Beograd]] league fixture at [[Split, Croatia|Split]]'s [[Stadion Stari plac|Stari plac Stadium]] on 23 September 1970 was stopped and ultimately abandoned over an incident caused by Hajduk's fans. With the score tied at 2-2 in the 52nd minute, match referee Pavle Ristić from [[Novi Sad]] fell unconscious after getting hit in the head with an object thrown from the stands. As a result, the match was immediately stopped and abandoned. A few days later, the [[Football Association of Yugoslavia|Yugoslav FA]]'s (FSJ) disciplinary body made a ruling to register the contest by awarding a 0-3 win to the visiting OFK Beograd.

In Split, the disciplinary measure set off violent street protests that quickly assumed a distinctly anti-[[Belgrade]] and [[Anti-Serb sentiment|anti]]-[[Serb]] tone and ended up lasting for days. Led by the club's ultra fan group, [[Torcida Split|Torcida]], the practice of seeking out parked cars with the city of Belgrade [[Vehicle registration plates of Serbia|license plates]] and pushing them into the [[Adriatic Sea]] off the [[Dock (maritime)|docks]] was especially widespread in Split during the protests. The press also reported about some of the gathered mob spontaneously launching into a cynical and sarcastic rendition of [[Sergio Endrigo]]'s then current and popular song "Kud plovi ovaj brod" ('Where is This Ship Going') as the cars with Belgrade plates were pushed into the sea and floated in the water before sinking.<ref>{{cite news|first=Alen|last=Orlić|url=http://arhiv.slobodnadalmacija.hr/20031112/sport01.asp|title=Zdravko Reić: Izopćili su me iz Hajduka ZBOG SLUČAJA ŠIŠMIŠ|newspaper=[[Slobodna Dalmacija]]|date=12 November 2003|access-date=24 February 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171111041539/http://arhiv.slobodnadalmacija.hr/20031112/sport01.asp|archive-date=11 November 2017|url-status=dead|df=dmy-all}}</ref>

Due to the undertones of ethnic hatred and potential to undermine the [[Brotherhood and unity|country's official inter-ethnic guiding principle]] during the politically sensitive time when [[MASPOK]] was gathering steam in [[Socialist Republic of Croatia|SR Croatia]], the Split football protests quickly came to the attention of Yugoslav federal authorities that decided to deal with the situation by pressing FSJ into changing its disciplinary ruling and registering the original 2-2 score. FSJ did exactly that, reinstating the score at the moment when the match was abandoned as the official result.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://torcida.org/site/dokumentarac/ |title=Dokumentarac &#124; Torcida.org |access-date=2010-08-15 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100613020058/http://torcida.org/site/dokumentarac/ |archive-date=2010-06-13 }}</ref>
