Kane Says England 'Prepared' Amid Racism Fears in Serbia Clash

England aims to extend their perfect qualifying record and secure World Cup spot by potentially moving eight points clear of Serbia in a critical Group K match, officials said.

  • On Tuesday, England men's national team travel to Belgrade for a World Cup qualifier at Rajko Mitic Stadium, a match billed as one of their toughest in Group K.
  • Because of past discriminatory incidents, FIFA punished the Football Association of Serbia , reducing capacity by 15, about 8,100 seats, and the Football Association plans talks if abuse occurs.
  • England arrive with a perfect qualifying record, having won all four matches without conceding under Thomas Tuchel, while Harry Kane, England captain, registered 12 touches and two shots on Saturday, matching Bobby Moore's 108 caps.
  • A victory would move Thomas Tuchel's England eight points clear and put them close to booking a trip to North America for next summer's tournament, while defeat would let Serbia national team cut the gap to two points with a game in hand.
  • The Football Federation of Serbia has appealed to fans to support the national team properly on Tuesday, while the Football Association will review UEFA protocols and response plans for abuse.
