I think Portugal can only have themselves to blame as they fumbled their chance over the last two games.
In Portugal's group, where we have Azerbaijan, Luxembourg, Ireland & Serbia, i would have easily tipped Portugal for qualification, unfortunately football really has a lot of twist. No one ever expected or saw that last minute goal coming.
Feels bad for Cristiano Ronaldo. Qatar 2022 was supposed to be his final world cup appearance.
Must be a really difficult time for CR7 at the moment, things at both club and country are going unexpected ways for him, we all know how committed he is to National duties and how he has been dragging the team and making sure to be the difference between Portugal and any other team, unfortunately Serbia really played them down, and his singular performance was not enough this time.How a player plays at club level affects how he plays at the international level,same for Bruno Fernandez and Cristiano Ronaldo.
It hurts to get such a bad result truly hurts deep.

I know this is a consequence for any team in the world in a competition. Portugal still have a chance to go to next year's world cup in the play-off where there are 2 decider match they will play in March if I am not mistaken. Any country's biggest dream of getting into the world cup will still come true if they can decide their fate in these two match [palyoff]. Hopefully Portugal can, this will be the last world cup for Ronaldo in my opinion.

Spain didn't make any mistakes but Portugal did. Now they have to play another though match to go to World Cup. Last minute goals are always devastating, especially if you are so close to go to the major tournament. It was a head to head game though, Serbia deserved that win.
Portugal would have prevented that situation by securing the match and lead by adding another goal but they relaxed so much and let Serbia win them. It would be even more painful if they don't win in the playoffs and end up losing a world cup spot altogether. This might be Ronaldo's last world cup and it would be disappointing if they don't even get to qualify for it.
Whether or not Portugal gets to qualify Ronaldo is a living legend of football for his county and he's done more than anyone could have possibly asked of him, although it will be a big shame to see Portugal lose out entirely on the World Cup and wouldn't be a befitting send forth for Ronaldo's career for his country.
I think Portugal can only have themselves to blame as they fumbled their chance over the last two games, winning against Ireland wouldn't have mattered anyways since they still would have fell short by a point after losing to Serbia, Serbia were the better team tonight and deserved their victory, the goal came a point where there was absolutely nothing else Portugal can do.
Feels bad for Cristiano Ronaldo. Qatar 2022 was supposed to be his final world cup appearance. Portugal may still qualify, as they are on top in the playoff table. They have 17 points, followed by Russia at 16 (Switzerland or Italy may still end up with more points after today's match). Within two days, the first phase of the UEFA qualifiers will be over and we will get the list of 10 teams who qualify as the group winners. For teams like Portugal, we need to wait for a few more months, until the playoffs are complete.
Spain achieved difficult, but deserved win, though, even draw wouldn;t be something bad for them. What a shot from Olmo and then Morata couldn't miss that that easy shot. Spain in Qatar already.
Portugal 1:2 Serbia. It's difficult to comment this game because I watched Spin vs Swededn. Portugal scored very ealry goal, but it didn't helped them. Serbia surprisingly won after late goal and they go to Qatar directly, Portugal will have to play in playoffs anb it will be difficult - only 3 teams will reach World Cup from it.
Spain team did a good job especially after a bad first half they managed to turn the situation around they dominated the second half with multiple goal chances which was the opposit of portugal second half, they made things harder since there are many good teams in the play off.

I have expected that germany will win there game without any problems against Armenia , but they got a few nice chances.
Also it was great to see some new palyers in the german team playing and they have done there job good.
But the biggest surprise was when i readed the result from Portugal vs Serbia and that Serbia won and is qualified now.

this is a very poor game that Portugal is playing, it doesn't even seem like Portugal has great players, they are having a very good performance, this way Portugal will lose
you were right, they were playing poorly throughout the whole match, and Serbia managed to score from a header in the last minutes of the match, I think the equalizing goal in the first half made things bad for Portugal, and it from a mistake of the goalkeeper, I think that goal put pressure on them and gave a boost of confidence to Serbia who dominated the 2nd half.63 minutes

And now exactly what I expected happened. Everybody thought it will be easy to beat Portugal and there you go. Serbia was not to be underestimated and they indeed shocked Portugal. Wow...

they can't maximize this match well and like it or not they have to take part in the play offs before they can go to qatar later.
and of course this is a loss because on paper I think in this match Portugal should have won the match.
but on the other hand they made a fatal mistake here.
but I think they will be able to get past the playy off even if it's troublesome

By the way I forgot to ask, if you watch the Croatia match, how was Josko Gvardiol's performance do you think, did he deserve to start? He's so young but he's playing in RB Leipzig this season. I guess Croatia found their next defender. Lovren and Vida are at the end of their career so new generation will find more chances.

Spain played much better and deserved to score. The only problem was that the goal came late, but somehow they scored. Morata entered the game later and scored. If it was a draw, Spain would still complete the group as the leader, but they did not suffer an accident with this goal they scored.
Portugal missed the opportunity at the last minute. They were the disappointment of the day. Ronaldo's nightmare continues. Both the club team and the national team are not going good for him this year.

You were spot on, hope you placed some money on it, must have been hell of the odds. Did not watch the game since I am tuned to Tennis Masters but I just checked the results and I can't believe Portugal lost at home. Furthermore according to the stats it looks deserved. I guess they wanted to play for the point and got rektd.63 minutes

Spain did the job with 1:0 win. Can't believe that team like Spain does not have a better striker than De Thomas or Morata. What's up with Inaki Willimas or Moreno, both would be my choices before these two.
Serbia in the World Cup and Portugal will have to go through a very complicated playoff until we see Ronaldo in Qatar next year.
Spain is in its natural place and Sweden with Zlatan will fight for their place in the playoffs as well.
Despite the early goal of Portugal, and although it came with a defender's mistake, Serbia excelled in every inch on the field, individually and collectively.
Portugal with all its stars is very poor technically and tactically, and Serbia is a very respected team and deserves its place well.

Portugal vs Serbia this game is heated after the Serbs were promised some hefty bounty should the manage to beat the Portuguese team, and with scores tied at 1-1 anything can happen within the last 25 minutes remaining . From what am seeing am going in for a last minute screamer of a goal in favor of Serbia, that bounty put on the win is some serous motivation.
Btw these guys seem to mimic how Bayern Munich keeps beating their opponents!
The Germans are doing just excellent at the moment the scores is 1-4 at the moment.
Ikay Gundogan becoming a hit Man for both Manchester City and Germany,too good to be dropped on the bench.
Two goals to his name already.
The Germany team is one to watch out for when the world cup starts because these guys seem not to hold back when it comes to these games.Ikay Gundogan becoming a hit Man for both Manchester City and Germany,too good to be dropped on the bench.

You was right looking on ball possession where Serbia dominance almost 55% and Portugal only 45%, the other shoot on goal until 56th minutes Serbia lead made 8 shoot goal with 2 attempt on target and Portugal only made 6 shoot but only 1 on target, I think this statistic not be guarantee for Serbia keep winning and Portugal will play more defensive because draw only make them pass to final 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, but lets see left 40 minutes later what will happen.

Serbia is better team on the pitch, but it will be difficult to win tonight, nevertheless, I hope that we will win
Portugal had the best start what they could hope for, early goal after few minutes, but Serbia took control afterwards, and plays better, hopefully that will give results in the end, and we will score
1:2 would give us pass to Qatar
