Serbia coach Radomir Antic wants to remain in charge of the national team despite his side's group-stage exit at the World Cup.
Antic's men finished bottom of Group D despite a 1-0 win over 10-man Germany, with a 1-0 defeat against Ghana and then a 2-1 loss to Australia in their final game proving costly. However, the Serbians were just a goal away from progressing against the Socceroos with Antic and his team aggrieved after a late penalty claim was turned down.
"When I signed a contract with the Serbian Federation I accepted a contractual obligation," Antic said in a press conference. "And I have no intention of going back on it."
