Luca Waldschmidt, Germany Eliminate Serbia with 6-1 Win in U-21 Euros

Germany continued their winning start to the 2019 UEFA Under-21 Euros on Thursday, eliminating Serbia with a 6-1 win and establishing a three-point lead at the top of Group B.

Luca Waldschmidt netted a hat-trick at the Stadio Nereo Rocco in Trieste, Italy, and became the tournament's outright top scorer with four goals, while Marco Richter, Mahmoud Dahoud and substitute Arne Maier also chipped in.

Captain Andrija Zivkovic scored Serbia's only goal from the penalty spot after Lazar Randelovic was tripped inside the area late on.

New Real Madrid signing Luka Jovic was held at bay, and Serbia are still searching for their first goal of the tournament while they can no longer progress any further in the competition.
