Savicevic calls in new faces

Match will be played at the "France" stadium in Saint-Denis

Belgrade, November 18 (uefa.com) - Yugoslavia coach Dejan Savicevic has named two newcomers in his squad for the friendly match against France on Wednesday.

Jovan Markoski, from FK Zeleznik, and FK Partizan's Zvonimir Vukic have been called up instead of injured captain Predrag Mijatovic and midfield player Zoran Mirkovic. Yugoslavia, who last met France 13 years ago in Paris in a goalless draw, are in UEFA EURO 2004™ Group Four and have four points from two games, after a draw in Italy and a home win over Finland.

Savicevic said: "France are the perfect opponent to measure our abilities at this point and see if our results so far in the EURO 2004™ qualifications were lucky or if we are on our way to being a good team, ready for big results. France are favourites, but we are not outsiders."

Yugoslavia squad

Goalkeepers: Jevric, Zilic.
Defenders: Markovic, Koroman, Vidic, Dudic, Mihajlovic, Krstajic, Stefanovic, Dragutinovic.
Midfielders: Stankovic, Djordjevic, Boskovic, Trobok, Duljaj, Brnovic, Ilic, Markoski.
