ENGLAND v MACEDONIA - BAINES WONDER STRIKE SINKS GERMANY
Leighton Baines' stunning long-range effort at the Ricoh Arena ensured a first-leg advantage for England Under-21s in their European Championship play-off against Germany.
Wigan left-back Baines received the ball with 14 minutes left and unleashed an unstoppable drive into the top corner past Michael Rensing, who had frustrated the hosts with his agility throughout.
Bayern Munich goalkeeper Rensing had denied Baines and Anton Ferdinand earlier in the match, while Wayne Routledge also hit the post with a drive.
