and it's match day one in the 2024 UEFA European Championship it's Serbia and they take on Spain well these teams know they cannot afford to drop points today it's so important they are consistent throughout the group stages if they want to progress further in the tournament should be tense Derek [Applause] [Applause] and the Serbia starting 11 well it's a defensive lineup that's for sure but their wing backs and at least one of their Midfield players will need to break forward when they regain possession just to give them a threat going forward [Applause] here's the lineup for Spain Fabian plays with rodri in central Midfield and the main Striker today is Morata [Applause] and they kick off here rodri Fabian moiko Williams well good run this now what can he do with it and take it away but attacking possibilities Williams and Fabian and is at the moment for Morata there it is that's delightful start to this match just what they were hoping for [Applause] well just look how he holds off the defender he keeps his balance and he still hits the target what a good goal that [Applause] is well it's a big moment for him just needs to get his players refocused now now back underway and one n it is let's see what happens [Applause] next Sasha lukic elich and mitrovic the ball with lukic ivanich vlahovich and moving the ball nicely [Applause] mitrovic well it's up up when he made that interception look routine in truth it [Applause] wasn't kukura [Applause] Dan Elmo the ball with rodri carvaka well passing moves like this will build confidence oh genuine chance and a goal he's cut it away A celebratory moment [Applause] well here you can see it again good run great strength and a composed finished Under Pressure that's a top class goal 2-0 now and back on theway [Music] MOS vovi elich Alexander mitrovic Duan vlahovich moving forward effectively but they dealt with the threat posed well they're moving it around with real purpose here rodri Morata and return to [Applause] Morata elich Ian El the ball with [Applause] lukic Duan [Applause] vlahovich moiko Williams racing forward trying to catch them out well it looks so promising but it all comes to nothing Nikola milenovic Ivan nich velovic the ball with lukic [Applause] elich mag and a foul in the opinion of the referee now what can they do from this free kick situation [Applause] oh what an Exquisite goal absolute perfection well I have a feeling we're going to see this time and time again tonight it's a fantastic for the technique just to get that much lateral movement on the ball wonderful [Applause] strike well two one it is here rodri here's [Applause] caral L Mo Danny Almo with [Applause] it hura I must say this looks promising faan showing patience as well as persistence in the buildup well they couldn't keep that sequence going [Applause] unfortunately Duan [Applause] vlahovic very quick thinking there [Applause] good technique displayed [Applause] vovi now he must favor the [Applause] cross elich mitrovic just the challenge that was required Danny Elmo onto Morata and the emphasis is on creativity and let's give credit to the defending Sasha lukic it needs an accurate cross [Applause] gell and this to level it oh a vital piece of last it's defending well you can tell what the fans think of that decision they're certain it should have been a penalty and strong play here good idea big chance it is oh he's found the n and that increases the advantage to two just what they wanted and just what they deserve well here it is again the through ball is absolutely inch perfect and when he gets onto it he decides to go for power it's a really emphatic finish which gives the keeper no chance [Applause] so back underway at 3-1 [Applause] elich [Applause] mladenovic ivanich Elite Duan vlahovic the ball with lukic mladenovic the ball with lukic determined defending [Applause] he read the situation defensively and did his job elich vlahovic well a joy to watch [Applause] vovi patient enough buildup can they carve out a chance mitrovic oh genuine chance well from that position he really should be doing more to work the goalkeeper [Applause] [Applause] kukura Williams it's with [Applause] laot rodri here's Carvajal into the advanced position interception to Snuff out the [Applause] danger movich the ball with lukic mitrovic Sasha lukic mitrovic [Applause] Running With The Ball confidently but nothing comes of it well the electronic board showing one additional minute Carvajal [Applause] [Applause] a chance then for the respective managers to address their charges it is halime here well we're focusing on him for a reason he's playing with real Authority and attack Stuart well he's scored good goals but he's all around play has been excellent he looks like scoring every time he gets on the ball away they go again second half is underway here [Applause] good looking buildup as they try to reduce the aers [Applause] well lovely work to get past his man but no damage done that's the main thing Williams here's Fabian and they continue to advance and a lot of options here good work from Spain to win back possession he's in control of the situation Fabian and a decent delivery but at one point on its flight I wondered if the keeper would have difficulties but no problems at the end Ian nich Sasha lukic vovi [Applause] elich and a very good challenge morasa orata oh might be that is a very fine challenge in difficult circumstances substitution time it is [Applause] [Music] herey favoring the short one and the referee felt he had to blow the whistle Movic well not giving him any breathing room morat out can he put it in you can tell just how badly he wants that hatrick didn't quite happen on that occasion but you sense it's only a matter of time before he does get a third [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] rodri sub meni and defending as a unit chance to finish superbly read and executed 30 minutes left for play Milos velovic the ball with [Applause] lukic at times they make passing look easy Sasha I must say this looks promising [Applause] gell and he stopped them in their tracks and play halted free kick given both managers deciding this is the time to change things around both teams going to the bench [Applause] s now the referee not too happy with the challenge and blows for a free [Applause] [Applause] kick MI just the challenge that was required chance maybe to use the counterattacking ability to good [Applause] effect that continues his run and it's still on really fine piece of Defending play to break us [Applause] up mitrovic he has to teammates around [Applause] him milinkovic Savage opportunity to deliver the cross mitrovich a chance to eat into their lead and it goes he's made it a brace for himself no stopping him apparently well it's great awareness of space in the box and then he shows a lot of composure with the Finish that's a clever goal well that makes it interesting and suddenly he's showing a bit of concern here just look at his face underway again and we're being treated to plenty of goals 3-2 at the moment well we have 20 minutes left in this game zivkovich and a good challenge to bring that attack to an end Laport the ball with rodri Dan Elmo possession one zivkovic here's milinkovic Savage the supporters want to see him have a go and the goalkeeper has outdone himself with that save so two substitutes to come on in one [Applause] go short Corner favored nicely timed tackle and the Counterattack is on options [Applause] available and the referee has given the corner so maybe scope here for them to add to their lead so deciding to make a Personnel change at this juncture [Applause] played over danger revers it for [Applause] now effective piece of [Applause] pressing milinkovic Savage maybe room here for the [Applause] Counterattack iic Savage and with that the attack Fizzles out Morata crossed in there and he's only gone and made it a hatrick absolutely unplayable today what a performance [Applause] well let's look at this again Derek because the transition when the ball changes hands is so quick while the movement in the box is equal to it it's such good timing what a [Applause] goal well he looks really pleased doesn't he his side have been really good today so the current score line 42 Alexander mitrovic mitrovic tadic has [Applause] it Nikola milenovic in position here toing protect the ball well sadly they just couldn't keep possession Danny Almo well maybe a good position from which to counter can he put it in well they need to get bodies [Applause] back an example of how to press might work out big chance it is and a goal if there were any remaining doubts that will settle the [Applause] issue well first of all where's the defending they're all over the place but give him some credit that's a good finish great composure well if there were any lingering doubts about the outcome surely they now have been [Applause] removed Has the strength to hang on to it kovich and using his strength to Shield the ball textbook defending Inside the Box well the fans are certainly having their say just listen to them they thought that was a penalty oh this is looking [Applause] promising he'll be breathing a sigh of relief ball one well let's see what they have in store for them on the break will it be sufficiently imaginative Morata is up there no nonsense clearance really fine play to keep possession oh great defending Andrea jovic and 3 minutes of stoppage time to be added on ninkovic Savage and he's through here and a decent save full [Applause] credit and with play stop they will make the change [Applause] now who can they pick out oh a very fine header but it wouldn't go in for him danger averted for now but it will be another [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] Corner trying to pick out a teammate oh Super Header but the goalkeeper ER was up to the task well smuggled behind for another [Applause] [Applause] Corner delivering it clearing his [Applause] away pavlovic oh that's a super piece of Defending and the referee says that will be all for this game and Serbia have lost the match there's no getting away from it Stuart how would you analyze their performance you're absolutely right Derek while the result is poored the display was even worse they never got to grips through the opposition they were second best at every facet of the game they need to do a lot of improving before the next timeout and Fabian and is at the moment for Morata there it is a delightful start to this match just what they were hoping for well passing moves like this will build confidence and a goal he's put it away A celebratory moment oh what an Exquisite goal absolute perfection and
