Return noticed.
Dismissed from the selection in September for disciplinary reasons, Gerson Rodrigues was recalled in October to help Luxembourg move closer to Euro 2024. Replacing the match against Iceland on Friday, the Sivasspor winger came into play at the very start of the second half. It only took him a handful of seconds to equalize and at the same time become the only top scorer in the history of the Red lions (17 goals), ahead of Léon Mart (16 goals in 24 caps between 1924 and 1933).
The Luxembourg number 10 would have given even more depth to his evening if he had not wasted the match point, at the end of added time, by missing the target in a slightly off-center position while the Icelandic goalkeeper had deserted his cage . Luc Holtz’s band therefore only took one point (1-1) but is only two points behind Slovakia, second in group J.
Forget Love is in the meadow or the France 2 TV film: Luxembourg-Slovakia on Monday evening is simply unmissable.
