Serbia and England at the UEFA European Championship
Neither of these nations have been crowned champions of Europe, though England have come far closer than Serbia.
The Three Lions ended runners-up to Italy at the belated 2020 edition. Playing in the UEFA European Championship final for the first time England went ahead as early as the 2nd minute but ultimately lost in heartbreaking fashion, on penalties, at Wembley Stadium.
Going further back, England reached the semi-finals on home soil in 1996, famously exiting to eventual champions Germany following a gruelling 7-6 penalty shootout loss.
England have also reached the quarters on several occasions but still seek a maiden European title.
Serbia, meanwhile are set to take part in the Euro finals for the first time since the nation restored independence in 2006.
As part of the Yugoslavia national team, the Оrlovi (Eagles) finished as runners-up in 1960 and 1968 – losing to the Soviet Union and Italy, respectively.
In 2000, the Serbia and Montenegro national team reached the quarter-finals but suffered a heavy defeat to co-hosts Netherlands. Patrick Kluivert scored a hat-trick as Die Oranje claimed a resounding 6-1 victory at De Kuip in Rotterdam, home of Feyenoord.
Serbia vs England Head-to-Head
These teams have never shared a pitch, at least not since the Serbia national team became its own entity. Under previous guises, however, Serbia have met England on a few occasions.
At Euro 1968, the Yugoslavia national team edged England in the semi-finals, 1-0, courtesy of a late winner by Serbian-born Dragan Džajić.
In 2003, England faced Serbia and Montenegro national team in an international friendly. Liverpool icon Steven Gerrard was amongst the scorers in a 2-1 win for the Three Lions.
