FT: #CRC 0-1 #SRB. Very good performances throughout the side for Serbia: Milenkovic, Matic, Milinkovic-Savic, Mitrovic. Didn’t tally up in midfield that well but still created chances. Liked what Bolanos offered off the bench for Costa Rica. #WorldCup

Mitro departs after 89 mins. Was a handful all game, but had 2 great opportunities to score & didn’t take them. Will be important to Serbia in next two games if they are to progress though
