Serbia coach Radomir Antic claimed his team were denied a penalty that could have sent them into the World Cup second round.

The Serbs crashed out of the tournament as they were beaten 2-1 by Australia in their final Group D game. Antic was disappointed Tim Cahill was not penalised when the ball struck his arm in the area in the closing minutes.

Antic, not forgetting his team conceded a penalty against Ghana for handball, said: "The first time we handled the ball we were punished with a penalty. This time the referees, including the fourth official, did not want to see that there was a foul that was quite obvious."
