England thrash Serbia, high five for Haaland & Norway
The New Indian Express Dharmapuri
|September 11, 2025
ENGLAND sent out a warning to their World Cup rivals with a brilliant 5-0 thrashing of Serbia in qualifying on Tuesday, while Erling Haaland scored five as Norway emphatically maintained their 100-percent record.
Elsewhere in Europe, Portugal and France overturned deficits to make it back-to-back wins to open their bids to reach next year's tournament in the United States, Mexico and Canada. The quality of Thomas Tuchel's England was questioned after a laborious 2-0 win over Andorra at Villa Park on Saturday, but they produced a resounding answer. "The players did excellent. The credit goes to them, they did amazing. That's the bar," manager Tuchel told ITV Sport.
England dominated the early stages in Belgrade and took the lead in the 33rd minute when Harry Kane headed home his 74th international goal from a Declan Rice corner.
