Czech Republic 1 Belgium 1
First Published: Apr 25, 2001An offside goal was allowed by the Czech Republic as they drew 1-1 in Prague with Belgium.
Milan Baros on his international debut scored the equaliser in the 82nd minute when he ran clear of the defence and slid in a cross from Lukas Dosek.
Replays showed Bartos was offside by a metre but Slovenian referee Darko Ceferin allowed the goal to stand.
The Czechs fielded six players from their under-21 team in the second half and were lucky to get back on level terms.
Belgium scored when Udinese midfielder Johan Walem hit a ball through the middle to Schalke 04 striker Emile Mpenza who hit a low shot on the run past Pavel Srncicek in the 11th minute.
