Germany secured a 3-1 victory against a nine-man Serbia side during their latest UEFA Nations League fixture, according to Yahoo Sports.

The match marked the second victory for manager Jurgen Klopp since he assumed control of the national team.

Serbia conceded an early own goal when Srdjan Babic redirected the ball into his own net.

Florian Wirtz extended the German lead in the 14th minute by bundling the ball past goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic.

Debutant Brajan Gruda delivered a standout performance by sprinting from his own half to score a decisive goal from outside the penalty area.

Babic managed to score in the correct net in the 56th minute to narrow the deficit for the home side.

The momentum shifted back to Germany after Vanja Dragojevic received a straight red card for a challenge on Joshua Kimmich.

Serbia was reduced to nine men shortly thereafter when Andrija Zivkovic was dismissed for using foul and abusive language.

With this result, Klopp has recorded two wins, two draws, and one defeat across his first five games at the helm, as reported by the outlets.

Germany currently sits third in Group A2, a position that could ultimately result in a relegation play-off.

The Netherlands lead the group following a dominant 7-0 victory against Greece, who remain level with Germany on eight points.

The top two teams in the group will advance to the quarter-finals of the competition.

Germany is scheduled to host the Netherlands on Monday for the final group stage match.

Meanwhile, Greece will conclude its campaign with a home match against Serbia, which currently sits at the bottom of the group standings.

The outcome of these final fixtures will determine the final group rankings and qualification status for the participating nations.
