Serbia vs England tonight

Mitro getting his 100 cap honour was a nice  touch.

Your fans need to behave tonight SL or the sanctions will be severe. A disgrace that racism is still prevalent in society. Got a horrible feeling about tonight. Hope football wins.

Racism has no place in football or anywhere for that matter. Racism is less prevalent in Serbia than England and there are multiple studies that confirm this. I don't understand the media campaign against Serbia prior to this game. We are not a racist country at all.

It's because you are always getting in trouble for chanting about Kosovo which is called racist when ethnic discrimination is probably more accurate so people assume it is racism for being anti black.

There were also a couple incidents like 13 and 18 years ago where and England player was racially abused.

Don't talk about Kosovo and Metohija if you're not from there please, it's a very complex and political topic. The fact is that majority of countries don't recognise it as a independent nation, but as a part of Serbia, and the chants people say state "Kosovo is Serbia" which by United Nations is true.

Lukic booked unsurprisingly....

Congrats on the win lads! No way are we scoring today with this set-up from our coach.

Edit:0-2, even less of a chance now.

[Steeeeeeeeeed]

2-0 up after 34 minutes, maybe England will rack up a few goals after all...

10 shots, 5 on target in 38 mins.

All hail Tuchel!  He is worthy now to wear the waistcoat of the great man.

Terrible half from us, even by our recent, poor standards. Our team selection made no sense and this was to be expected. The best result we could have hoped for in this set-up was 0-0, but as soon as you scored it became even easier for you.

I expect some subs at half time. Hopefully Jovic and Samardzic will come on, but regardless, I think you'll win easily and probably keep a clean sheet too.

Well I'm enjoying the performance, so going to stick with it and enjoy England again.

[Grassy Noel]

It would be a nicer win if Serbia turned up.

I wasn't trying to say Serbia is a racist country (I don't know enough about the area) but with UEFA closing part of the ground you will be under stricter scrutiny than usual. The UK has had its crowd problems and racism, as you say, is still very much part of our society today.

That was related to various incidents in the past few games, none of which were related to racism.

Some of our fans threw stuff on the pitch, chanted Kosovo is Serbia (which UEFA views as discriminatory language) and some other things I can't remember.

[SerbianLad]

0-3.

On replay, seems like an offside to me, but we're not getting anything from this game so I'm not bothered.

[SerbianLad]

We now have the team that should have started, more or less. I expect we'll play some better stuff now.

[Hatch007]

That is so harsh

[Surlyc]

That is so harsh

Assuming you mean the red card, I disagree. Milenkovic got none of the ball and took out Kane which prevented him running into the box and having a shot - that's a textbook red.

Haaland has hit five for Norway tonight...

Norway with only a slight lead on Moldova tonight..

10-1 so far.
