Portugal's forward Cristiano Ronaldo reacts at the end of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 qualification group A football match against Serbia, at the Luz stadium in Lisbon, on Sunday.
However, Serbia bounced back to dominate the remainder of the first half and deservedly levelled when Dusan Tadic’s strike squeezed in off the post after Dusan Vlahovic had hit the woodwork.Instead it was Aleksandar Mitrovic who grabbed the vital goal as stoppage time approached. “It was an amazing game,” said Mitrovic. “We were the better team today in every aspect of the game.”
Spain made sure they avoided the playoffs as Alvaro Morata’s goal four minutes from time ended Sweden’s resistance in Seville.
