Heartbreak for Kostic and Serbia

Serbia came so close to qualifying for EURO 2020 but missed out after a penalty shootout.

Filip Kostic was in the starting line-up and played the first hour of the match.

Kostic in the starting line-up

Serbia had their decisive play-off final against Scotland on Thursday, with a place at EURO 2020 up for grabs. Filip Kostic was in the starting line-up and played the first hour of the match, meaning that he had to watch from the sidelines as his team lost on penalties. Serbia will therefore play no part in next year’s tournament.

Schubert on the bench

Germany’s Under-21s played out a 1-1 draw with Slovakia in a friendly. Head coach Stefan Kuntz chose to play Mainz’s Finn Dahmen in goal, with Eintracht keeper Markus Schubert an unused substitute.
