List of called-up players: Goalkeepers: Vladimir Stojković, Vladimir Dišljenković, Bojan Isailović Defense: Branislav Ivanović, Nemanja Vidić, Ivica Dragutinović, Neven Subotić, Aleksandar Luković, Antonio Rukavina, Ivan Obradović, Aleksandar Kolarov Midfield: Dejan Stanković, Zdravko Kuzmanović, Nenad Milijaš, Gojko Kačar, Miloš Krasić, Boško Janković, Milan Jovanović, Miralem Sulejmani Attack: Nikola Žigić, Marko Pantelić, Danko Lazović, Dragan Mrđa Unavailable players: Nikola Žigić( bookings), Ivan Obradović(injury). Day D for Serbian football. If we take 6 points from these 2 matches we could be on our way to South Africa.If we take a look at the standings: Serbia (5 matches, 12 points) France( 5 matches, 10 points) and schedule: Serbia:Austria(H), Faroes(A),France(H), Romania(H), Lithuania(A) France:Faroes(A),Romania(H),Serbia(A),Faroes(H), Austria(H) We can see that Serbia is in a slightly better position than France(I am saying this particularly because of that burden of the favorite which is laid on France, and because of our home soil advantage in a direct duel against them). Of course it wont be easy against either Austria or Faroes.Faroe Islands have pretty strong defense(they have conceded only 5 goals thus far, bunkering style), and Austrians are on the run since Ditmar Constantini took over(they beat Romania 2:1). Build-up to Austria match is great, according to all reports stadium is sold out.According to Antic we will play offensively, and this is possible team: ------------Stojković------------ Ivanović--Vidić-Subotić--Kolarov Krasić-Stanković-Milijaš-Jovanović --------Lazović------Pantelić-------- NAPRIJED SRBIJOOOOO!
saw the second half on the web, Subotic scored on a nice head-ball to put the game out of reach. Serbia is now 8 points clear of France, who have 2 games in hand (and have yet to face the Faroe Islands). The big game vs France looming in September
