England continued their flawless march towards the World Cup with a professional 2-0 victory over Serbia at Wembley Stadium, extending their winning streak to seven consecutive qualifying matches.
Clinical Finishing Secures the Points
While manager Gareth Southgate might have been frustrated by a lack of precision in the final third at times, his team ultimately delivered where it mattered. The breakthrough came from Arsenal's Bukayo Saka, who found the net with a composed finish in the first half. The victory was sealed by a superb strike from Crystal Palace's Eberechi Eze, marking another impressive performance from the attacking midfielder.
A Defensive Fortress
The win was built on another resolute defensive display, with the team securing their seventh clean sheet in seven qualifiers. This remarkable defensive consistency has been a cornerstone of England's campaign, making them an incredibly difficult side to break down. The victory sets them up perfectly for their final qualifying match away to Albania on Sunday.
Despite the occasional wayward final pass, the team's quality shone through, resulting in what was described as "two lovely goals" that were enough to sink a determined Serbian side and maintain their perfect record.
