Full-back and midfielder get the yellow card against Serbia
João Cancelo and Renato Sanches are confirmed low in the playoff semi-final, in March. Both players were on the verge of exclusion, and were unable to avoid further reprimands in the game against Serbia. The Manchester City full-back was shown a yellow card in the opening minutes, when he brought down Milenkovic. In the second half, it was the Lille midfielder who also didn’t avoid the penalty when he took down Vlahovic in midfield. The yellow card situation was one of the main concerns of Fernando Santos in these final games of the qualifying phase. In fact, in Dublin, the national coach even promoted an authentic revolution in the team to save holders for the duel with the Serbs.
