Lithuania
1 - Spain 1
Spain's under 21 side
could only manage another disappointing draw in Lithuania, and are now
four points adrift of leaders Serbia. The youngsters took the lead on a
freezing cold night when Sergio García was brought down in the penalty
area midway through the first half, Iniesta converting the resulting penalty
kick. But they wasted a couple of chances to extend the lead, and paid the
price when Rimkevicius equalised soon after the restart. And the locals held
off a late onslaught to secure a point, despite playing for the last few
minutes with ten men after Skroblas picked up a second booking. (12.10.04)
