    So we are all going to start using Munchen instead of Munich, Paree instead of Paris, Hrvatska instead of Croatia, Oporto instead of Porto.

    Going by the precedents set on this thread it’s Dukla Praha.

    I think you'll find they're called Bayern München.

    CSKA = Seska

    I understand why, but I've never heard them called that before.
    I think it's just the commentators catching up with the fans after about 100 years.

    Same as Red Star Belgrade, they're called by another name now. Weird.
