@Zed: Yes, it’s true it looks like a deja vu all over again. There’s always hope, there are always positives to be taken, but in the end we end up missing qualification or maybe even qualifying but then get demolished 6:0 by Argentina or some other world-class NT. But I won’t get carried away by this wave of pessimism, these new generations look better and better and Antić really should be the man to trust. And to be honest, I doubt that any Europan side (except maybe Scotland) could defeat Les Bleus in Paris, so we didn’t fare so bad after all. Also, there’s still a game to be played in Belgrade…

The same story continue,new manager same game,maybe the players didnt have time to adjuste to Antic’s style of play but that cant be excuse for such awful play,why Zigic didnt play from the start,im sure we wouldnt lost in that case,what kind of tactic we played,dont dissapoint the nation again Mr.Antic!

Well, we lost 2:1 and have every right to feel dissapointed. Not because of some injustice, but because of our own incompetence to stop a player when he tries to dribble trough the entire defense by himself and score. Not such a bad game for Serbia, but it’s definetely a wasted opportunity to at least draw the French, and the only good thing is that Raymond will probably stay and pressure on the France NT will continue. I’ll write some more about the game in the match review.

We lost our captain Stanković in the first minute. Now, that’s what I call bad luck!
