The patriarch wrote on Instagram that the footballers are real heroes because they received a blow (with Portugal's early lead), but immediately got up and fought together until victory.
"Bravo guys, bravo Mister (coach) Dragan, I share happiness and joy with you and our people. You are real heroes, because you received a blow but you immediately got up and fought together, as one, until the end, until victory! Long live Serbia," Patriarch Porfirije wrote.
Serbia celebrated 2-1 in Lisbon, thanks to a 90th minute goal socred by Aleksandar Mitrovic.
