- Kezman eyes Serb shock
Serbia Montenegro striker Mateja Kezman believes his side are set to cause a shock at the World Cup finals, having been drawn in Group C with Argentina, Holland and Ivory Coast.
Athletico Madrid frontman Kezman says his team are underdogs to make it through such a tough group, despite their excellent performances in qualification.
He told Reuters: "We are really happy there is no pressure this time, because we have been drawn in the toughest group in the tournament with Argentina, the Holland and Ivory Coast.
"I know the Dutch will be wary of us, I know their players very well and I am sure they won't underestimate us because we have been declared the group's dark horses.
"But we must also keep in mind that getting past the group stage will be no easy task, although I am confident we have the ability to get through.
"I think we will perform well and make our fans proud."
