Spain's under 19 side are virtually through to the semi-finals after a 0-2 victory against Lithuania in their second group game. Real Sociedad's Iker Hernández got both the goals, the first in the sixth minute with a clever back-heel after Vadillo played the ball in from the right. Fede Vico tried his luck later in the first half with a couple of long range efforts, and Hernández shot straight at the keeper with the goal at his mercy shortly before half time. The hosts had their chances as well though, in particular a couple of shots off target by Narbutas and Spalvis early in the second half, but a good run by substitute Adama Traoré ended with Hernández scoring his second of the evening, and only a defeat by two goals or more in the last group game against Holland will deprive De la Fuente's team of their place in the last four of the competition.
