Rico Lewis scored a dramatic late penalty to earn England Under-21s a 1-1 draw against Andorra in their European Championship qualifier, rescuing a point after a frustrating performance. The Young Lions dropped points for the first time in six qualifiers when Gerard Sola stunned them with a goal just seven minutes after halftime. England struggled to find their rhythm, failing to register a shot on target until the 68th minute and conceding for the first time in their qualifying run. Lewis converted the crucial spot-kick following a penalty awarded for a foul on Jobe Bellingham inside the box, avoiding an embarrassing defeat. Tyler Dibling missed a late chance to seal victory, shooting straight at goalkeeper Marc de Castro.
