Euro 2016: Russia Hold England In Thrilling Group B ContestBy Izuchukwu Okosi2374965_S2

Russia came from a goal down to snatch a priceless 1-1 draw against England in the second Group B game of the Euro 2016 tournament on Saturday night.

Adam Lallana was twice denied by Igor Akinfeev in the first half which ended scoreless.

Eric Dier however scored England’s goal from a freekick in the 73rd minute just a minute after a wonderful Akinfeev save.

At this time, England had 11 shots on goal while it was just one for Russia.

Vasli Beretzuski however snatched a vital draw for the Russians when he lept high to power home a cross beyond Joe Hart.
