EUROPEAN U-21 GROUP CLASSIFICATION: SPAIN 1 - FINLAND 0

The Spanish U-21 National Team managed a hard earned & important
1-0 victory over a very defensive Finland side in their Group
classification match. The Finns played a hard game which made
Spain’s ball control strategy & game difficult in finding the end
objective which only came in the 72nd minute when MICHEL
scored the winner.

Spain now looks forward to its game against Holland who share the
top spot in the Group as both teams battle for the direct ticket to
the 2011 European Championships in Denmark & to secure a place
in the 2012 London Olympic games.
