Under 17 international

Spain 4 - Czech Republic 0

Spain's under 17 side got off to the best possible start in the first match of the second qualifying round of their European tournament. Hosting the four team group play-off in Los Barrios in the South of Spain, the youngsters outclassed their opponents and were two goals up with only half an hour on the clock, Albacete's César opening the scoring and Villarreal's Marcos getting the second. César got another five minutes after the restart, and Mallorca's Carmona made it four later on. Spain play Russia in their second game next Monday. (27.03.04)
