Serbia with a controlled start against Latvia here. Early exchanges show both teams happy to go slow and steady.

Serbia 0-0 Latvia 4'

Nottingham Forest defender Nikola Milenkovic fouls and gives away a cheap free-kick to Latvia.

Serbia 0-0 Latvia 9'

Vladislavs Gutkovskis with a peach of a finish to stun the hosts. A low cross from the right sees the Latvian captain unmarked and he finishes with aplomb.

Serbia 0-1 Latvia 12'

Serbian players have quality all around and they will be frustrated with the way they conceded the goal. Marko Grujic is the latest to take a shot on goal but to no avail.

Serbia 0-1 Latvia 16'

All the pressure but it is amounting to goal from the Serbians. One-two passes in and around the Latvian goal but the hosts still far away from clinching an equaliser.

Serbia 0-1 Latvia 23'

Serbia win a corner and they take it short but the routine backfires as Latvia break but the visitors cannot make the most of it and the attack misfires.

Serbia 0-1 Latvia 28'

Lazar Samardzic takes a long-range effort but it deflects for a corner. SRB take the corner but nothing comes out of it and Latvia survive.

Serbia 0-1 Latvia 35'

Some big couple of minutes for Serbia. Luka Jovic goes down and is in need of some medical assistance. That's where Latvia take advantage of numerical advantage as they attack SRB goal with Predrag Rajkovic producing a double save.

Serbia 0-1 Latvia 39'

We are minutes away from HT and SRB look to end the first half on a high after giving away an early goal. Couple of chances have fallen their way but they haven't been able to convert it on goal.

Serbia 0, Latvia 1

Ognjen Mimovic replaces Strahinja Pavlovic

Half-time team-talk works as does the substitution. Aleksandar Katai scores to bring the hosts level in the game.

Serbia 1-1 Latvia 49'

Since the equaliser, Serbian spirits have been lifted as they eye a second goal of the game. LVA did well until the break but SRB quality was too much to tell.

Serbia 1-1 Latvia 53'

Aleksandar Stankovic, son of the great Dejan Stankovic, scores from a header to give Serbia lead in the game. After trailing in the first-half, the hosts have struck in the second-half, to gain a lead.

Serbia 2-1 Latvia 60'

Latvia are still in this contest and one mistake at the back from the hosts, could see them sneak in. However, they need to be smarter and make sure they grab the chance.

Serbia 2-1 Latvia 68'

Serbian attackers are getting in behind the Latvian defence and are finding good chances to bury the game off but cannot find the final ball.

Serbia 2-1 Latvia 73'

Vitalijs Jagodinskis replaces Maksims Tonisevs
