"You cannot live by beauty alone"


So says Ilija Petkovic to ESPNsoccernet's Steve Wilson in "Strong in tackle and spirit".

And you also cannot live by bread alone. I think Serbia still have enough skill to make them a serious threat in group C.

Inter's Dejan Stankovic for instance will be their creative presence in the midfield.

But we don't really need to say this, for I think that strong tackles, fighting spirit, team play and even defensive systems, if they are of a particular quality, can be considered "beautiful"...
