Stoke City midfielder Tomas Rigo scored a last-minute winner for Slovakia against Luxembourg as they remained top of their World Cup qualifying group.

The 23-year-old struck in the final seconds of the game at Stade de Luxembourg as Slovakia won 1-0 to follow up their opening win in Germany and maintain their 100% start to their qualifying campaign.

Sunday's goal is his second at senior international level in his seventh appearance having scored on his debut in a 4-0 friendly win over San Marino in June 2024.

Rigo joined Stoke from Banik Ostrava for an undisclosed fee on 30 August and could make his debut for the Potters when they return to Championship action at home to Birmingham City on Saturday, 13 September (15:00 BST).
