Events

Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! Serbia welcome England for this crunch clash at Veltins-Arena.
  • 5' England have won 75 goals from 137 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Phil Foden suffering a number of foals already.
  • 13' Goal! Jude Bellingham scores his 90 goal in 391 matches.
  • 18' Serbia started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 18.
  • 23' England looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Jude Bellingham scoring 1 goals.
  • 28' It’s high time Dragan Stojkovic made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.

  • 46' Nemanja Gudelj makes way for Ivan Ilic at the 46 minute mark. A tactical switch from Serbia.
  • 51' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 56' It is a cagey affair so far. Serbia in their 3-4-2-1 trying to find a way past England's compact 4-2-3-1.
  • 61' Aleksandar Mitrovic makes way for Dusan Tadic at the 61 minute mark. A tactical switch from Serbia.
