rdf:langString Ilija Dimoski (Macedonian: Илија Димоски; born 27 June 1939) is a Macedonian football manager and former player. He is nicknamed "Majstorot". He played a total of 790 games, 249 with FK Pobeda and 541 with FK Radnički Niš, and despite being a full-back, he scored 74 goals, 17 for Pobeda and 57 for Radnički. He was an offensive full-back who very often participated in the attack, something of an avangard for the football of the 1960s and 1970s. He was also the main penalty-shoot taker in the clubs he played, rarely missing. However, he also entered in the history of Yugoslav football because of the high number of own-goals he scored, 8, one with Pobeda and seven with Radnički. He was also well known by his strong shots, which he usually executed with the out side of the foot. He was known as a right full-back, however, during his 13-years long career with Radnički he occasionally played in every position except as goalkeeper, but in 1957 on one acasion he even played as goalkeeper, while he was still playing with Pobeda.
