A late Danny Welbeck equaliser gave England a share of the points in their opening Group B qualifying clash against Spain at the European under-21 soccer championship on Sunday.
Spain had the upper hand in the first half and took the lead with an Ander Herrera header in the 14th minute, though television replays suggested the ball might have struck him on the arm.
England clawed their way back into the game in the second half and both sides created several chances before Manchester United's Welbeck fired an 88th-minute equaliser past David De Gea, a transfer target for Welbeck's club.
Earlier, the Czech Republic beat Ukraine thanks to two second-half goals from Boreck Dockel.
The Slovan Liberec midfielder fired home an exquisite first-time shot to give the Czechs the lead in the 49th minute before slotting home a second goal seven minutes later.
Ukraine pulled one back through substitute Biliy late in the game but the Czechs held on to take the three points and top Group B after the first round of matches.
