BELGRADE (Reuters) - Two goals from striker Dusan Vlahovic steered Serbia to a 3-1 home win over Azerbaijan in their 2022 World Cup qualifier on Tuesday and left the Balkan nation top of Group A, a point ahead of Portugal.

Serbia have 17 points from seven games while Portugal, who thrashed Luxembourg 5-0 at home on the back of a Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick, have 16 from six ahead of their visit to Ireland on Nov. 11.
