Following the good game they had been playing, the English suffered a scare only due to a lack of Alexander-Arnoldwhich allowed the arrival of Mitrovic in a shot from outside the area, which was not aimed at the goal. With that, the British team managed to take the desired advantage into the break, but with the result far from being decided.
This is because Serbia sought a reaction in the final stage, and had a moment of great pressure at a certain point in the match. Despite this, mistakes in the final stretch of the field continued to be the team’s biggest problems, as they were unable to get the ball to the attacking duo formed by Mitrovic It is Vlahovic.
In this way, the result was maintained until the final whistle at just 1-0, with England keeping the three points that were up for grabs. In the next round, they will have the Denmark ahead, while Serbia will find the Sloveniain the dispute for the first points.
