(http://www.uefa.com/competitions/WorldCup/news/Kind=1/newsId=425916.html) However, Petković, the son of team coach [[Ilija Petković]], decided not to play in the World Cup, because of numerous accusations of nepotism in Serbian press and public. Petković left the training camp on 6 June. (http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/060607/7/7637.html) Since there was no possibility for replacement, as there was no injury, Serbia and Montenegro national team is the only one in the World Cup to have only 22 players in the squad. |
