Portugal did what was to be done against Luxembourg and kept chasing Serbia at a distance in the European Championship qualifying group B.
Cristiano Ronaldo & Co won by 2-0 and have thus secured a place in next year's European football championship.
Bruno Fernandes led the way by dipping in 1–0 with a quick finish in the 39th minute after a nice long ball from Bernardo Silva.
After that, Portugal had a hard time killing the match against Luxembourg and was for a long time only a back-to-back goal from losing their European Cup spot - this being the fact that table tennis Serbia led by 2-1 at home against already European-ready Ukraine.
But when Ronaldo stayed ahead and popped 2-0 on the goal line in the 86th minute, his 99th goal in the national team, things were clear. This gives the nation the chance to defend the European title salvaged in France 2016.
In addition, Serbia also lost its lead to 2-2 against Ukraine.
The following nations are already ready for the European Championships: Sweden, Finland, Belgium, the Czech Republic, England, France, Italy, Russia, Poland, Ukraine, Turkey, Spain, Netherlands, Germany, Croatia and Austria.
