Georgia 1 Slovenia 1, March 27th 1999

First Published: Mar 27, 1999

Georgia were held to a 1-1 draw in Tbilisi this afternoon and must hope that Norway fail to beat Greece tonight to stay in contention in group two of the Euro 2000 qualifiers.

A dull first half was capped by the home side taking the lead when Zaza Dzhanashia reached a deep cross to convert it low into the net.

The lead did not last long into the second session as in the 52nd minute Zlatko Zahovic hit a low drive to frustrate the home fans.
