Branislav Ivanovic (Chelsea), Antonio Rukavina (1860 Munich), Nemanja Vidic (Manchester United), Neven Subotic (Borussia Dortmund), Aleksandar Lukovic (Udinese), Ivan Obradovic (Saragossa), Aleksandar Kolarov (Lazio);
Dejan Stankovic (Inter Milan), Nenad Milijas (Wolves), Milos Krasic (CSKA Moscow), Milan Jovanovic (Standard Liege), Milos Ninkovic (Dynamo Kiev), Zdravko Kuzmanovic (Stuttgart), Zoran Tosic (Manchester United), Miralem Sulejmani (Ajax), Gojko Kacar (Hertha Berlin), Nemanja Matic (Chelsea), Radosav Petrovic (Partizan Belgrade);
Nikola Zigic (Valencia), Marko Pantelic (Ajax), Danko Lazovic (Zenith), Dragan Mrdja (Vojvodina), Dejan Lekic (Red Star Belgrade).

Rajevac is a Serbian and this match must have been tough on his loyalties. He did not look too enthused after the Ghana win and he pushes away a bench player. It's not an easy place to be. Serbia is a country that is extremely nationalistic- they are the direct inheritors of the Yugoslavian football legacy.

Wednesday's friendlies provided a glimpse into the progress of Group C's teams, and the results showed a bit of vulnerability for two of the United States' opponents.

England fell behind by a goal before rallying for a 3-1 victory over Egypt.

GERMAN BUNDESLIGA – ROUND 29 REVIEW
Bayern Munich and Schalke 04 went head-to-head in Gelsenkirchen for the chance to grab the top spot of the Bundesliga. The Bavarian giants lost their first place standing last week, but got it back with a tremendous win on the road against one of their biggest rivals for the German Bundesliga crown.

O técnico da seleção da Sérvia, Radomir Antic, divulgou nesta sexta-feira o nome dos 24 jogadores que defenderão o país na Copa do Mundo da África do Sul. O treinador ainda irá cortar um goleiro da lista até o dia 1º junho.
A Sérvia está no Grupo D do Mundial, ao lado de Alemanha, Austrália e Gana.

La Serbia, nata dalla ex Jugoslavia ufficialmente nel giugno 2006, è una delle possibili sorprese dei prossimi Mondiali.
Combatta e ben assortita, grintosa e determinata, la nazionale di Radomir Antic è composta da ottimi giocatori, tra i quali il fresco campione d'Europa e d'Italia Dejan Stankovic, l'esterno mancino laziale Kolarov e il talentuoso Milos Krasic, stella del Cska Mosca.

1. I wish we could conclude what was going through Zdravko Kuzmanovic's head when he conceded a late penalty, but we still have no idea what he was thinking. 2. Congratulations to Asamoah Gyan for breaking the record for the world's longest goal celebration. 3. The award for most appropriate World Cup benchwarmer goes to Neven Subotić.

Seems like the best tactic for a result at World Cup 2010 is to wait for the other team to screw up. I'm thinking Robert Green vs USA for example. I'm also thinking of both Abdelkader Ghezzal and Faouzi Chaouchi for Algeria earlier today. Ghana and Serbia were fairly evenly matched in today's Group D (the "D" stands for "Death" by the way) opener today, but Ghana emerged victorious mostly thanks to silly mistakes from Serbia's Aleksandar Lukovic and Zdravko Kuzmanovic.

SLOVENIA 1, ALGERIA 0
"Whoops! Shot's coming. Now, let's see. What was it Robert Green told me just before the game? Something important. Something really, really important. What to do when someone shoots the ball. I remember! I'm supposed to stop it. Okay, so all I need to do is stop this shot.

Ghana stunned Serbia with Asamoah Gyan's 84th-minute penalty kick this afternoon to end the game with a final score of 1-0.

Gyan's penalty kick goal that came after a handball by Serbia's Zdravko Kuzmanovic in the box, was his 20th career goal and second career World Cup goal.

After a very even match, Serbia seemed to be under some serious distress after Aleksandar Lukovic received his second yellow card and being ejected in the 74th minute of play.

We have read that referees in South Africa have been taking immersion courses in English to understand words our mother's told us not to use in polite company. With this in mind, here is my list for match officials with the Azzurri who open group round play on Monday against Paraguay in Cape Town.
