SERBIA OFF TO THE WORLD CUP

Nakon uspona i padova u kvalifikacijama i relativno mučnih 90 minuta protiv Gruzije u Beogradu, Srbija se plasirala na Svetsko prvenstvo. Golom Prijovića (74′) za minimalnu pobedu Srbije, plasirali smo se na prvo veliko fudbalsko takmičenje posle osam godina.

The first half was torturous,  with the home fans booing their players. A lack of initiative left a lot to be wished for, and a difficult job for the crew making the video highlights. There were truly none.

A wakeup that call was finally answered by Prijović (74′) who scored for a burst of euphoria, pyro and a chance to get to the 2018 World Cup. A chance coveted for years.

The defense had to guard the score for the next 20 minutes. It made things uneventful, but got the job done.

Despite all of the fluctuations and a shocking defeat against Austria last week, the team of Slavoljub Muslin is defending the Red Blue and White against the rest of the footballing world. For the joy and stress of all the Serbian football lovers.

The biggest football tournament will be held in Russia next year and is the first competition Serbia is participating after eight long years.
