SERBIA coach Dragan Stojkovic accused his players of losing their heads as he saw his side’s World Cup knockout hopes dwindle following a three-minute meltdown in which they threw away a two-goal lead against Cameroon.

Serbia had been cruising at 3-1 up in the second half, after pulling the African side apart with two goals in first-half stoppage time from Strahinja Pavlovic and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic before Aleksandar Mitrovic added a third after the break.
