Under 21 European championship qualifier
Spain 2 - Lithuania 0
The Spanish under 21 side
got their European campaign back on track with a 2-0 victory over
Lithuania. The youngsters need to win all their remaining games to be
sure of qualifying for next year's finals, but they found it hard work against
a side who packed their defence right from the start. And it was not until just
before the hour mark they broke through, Héctor Font picking up the ball
on the edge of the area to round his marker and beat the keeper with an angled
shot. Substitute Jonathan scored a second goal a few minutes later with a long
shot over the keeper's head to wrap things up, and a win against Bosnia next
Tuesday could take Spain into joint first place in the table.
