England's "Firecracker" in Belgrade; Piksi considered resigning: "We wouldn't get out alive"
The Serbian national football team suffered a 5:0 defeat in Belgrade against England in the qualification match for the World Cup.
The "Eagles" experienced one of the most convincing defeats in their history at the "Rajko Mitić" stadium, against the team with which they almost won a draw at the European Championship last summer.
As many as three visiting national team members (Madueke, Konsa, Guéhi) scored their first goals in the national team jersey in the Serbian capital and thus left Serbia practically without even a small chance when it comes to hopes, now dreams, of first place.
The fact that Thomas Tuchel's players scored only three in two matches against Andorra, and as many as five in 90 minutes against our team sounds devastating.
World Cup Qualifier, Group K
Srbija – Engleska 0:5 (0:2)
Kane 33, Madueke 36, Konsa 53, Guéhi 75, Rashford 90p
Stadium: Rajko Mitić (Belgrade)
Referee: Clément Turpin (France)
After five rounds, England has the same number of victories and is the sovereign ruler of Group K before visiting Latvia.
Serbia has seven points from one game less, and the next match will be played on October 11 against Albania at home.
To make matters worse, coach Dragan Stojković will not be able to count on Saša Lukić and Nikola Milenkovic in that match because of the cards they received against England.
"This defeat was hard for us, especially me", our national coach Dragan Stojkovic Piksi said after the match. "Criticize me, don't touch the players. The boys gave everything they could. They need to raise their heads. I believe that there will be a new Serbia in October. Criticize me, no problem. Of course, I also accept people's dissatisfaction."
"Of course I heard, I respect that. Don't forget that so much good has been done in these four years, that this defeat cannot undo it. If you think we are a football wonder, that we can win England, okay. Bring the one who can do that", Piksi concluded.
