Headline: Germany Takes Early Lead Against Serbia in Nations League Match
Germany finds itself under pressure in the Nations League, needing two wins against Serbia and the Netherlands for a chance at qualification. Today’s match against Serbia commenced at 20:45, and Germany quickly seized the moment with a strong start.
In the third minute, following their first corner, Germany made significant progress. Kai Havertz capitalized on a cross from Mittelstädt, delivering a header that was completely unmarked. The ball inadvertently deflected off Babić’s abdomen before finding the net, resulting in an unfortunate own goal for Serbia and giving Germany an early advantage.
VAR reviewed the play for a potential handball by Thiaw, but the goal was ultimately upheld.
As the rain fell in Belgrade, the match continued, and fans were left wondering if Germany could extend their lead.
