UEFA European U-21 Championship: Droughts Cost Denmark and England

Denmark and England have been left to rue a lack of goals as they exit the UEFA European U21 Championships. The hosts' main issue was converting chances, while for the Young Lions a dearth of creativity was to blame. Two goals in the last three minutes for Czech Republic dumped England out of the tournament. The Young Lions thought they had made the semi-finals when Danny Welbeck scored in the 76th minute but the Czechs had the final say. Substitutes Jan Chramosta and Tomas Pekhart both scored to clinch a 2-1 win for the Czechs.
