Late Zoran Tosic equaliser earns Serbia draw with Armenia

Manchester United reject Zoran Tosic scores a 90th-minute equalier to earn Serbia a 1-1 draw with Armenia in their Euro 2016 qualifier in Hrazdan.

Zoran Tosic scored late on to earn Serbia a 1-1 draw with Armenia in their Euro 2016 qualifier in Hrazdan this evening.

Serbia had a chance to open the scoring early on when Aleksandar Kolarov curled the ball into the box from a free kick, but Armenia keeper Roman Berezovsky got to it first.

The veteran continued to come under pressure in the first half as Dusan Tadic, Nemanja Matic and Tosic all had efforts saved, while Branislav Ivanovic headed just over.

Marcos Pizzelli had the best chance of the first half for the visitors, attempting to drill the ball in from the edge of the box only for Vladimir Stojkovic to parry clear.

Serbia continued to look the more likely early in the second half, but Stefan Mitrovic's header from a Tosic cross went high of the Armenia goal.

The miss proved costly as the hosts started to see more of the possession inside the final 20 minutes, and they opened the scoring when Robert Arzumanyan headed in the rebound from a Pizzelli effort.

Pizzelli had a couple of chances to extend Armenia's lead further, but his late effort went just wide.

Serbia finished the match strongly, and managed to get back on level terms in the final minute of the match when former Manchester United winger Tosic curled the ball in from 20 yards out.
