Lawal strikes late to earn Ireland U21s a draw

Bosun Lawal equalised late on as the Republic of Ireland's Under-21s drew 2-2 with Ukraine in a friendly in Austria.

After falling behind just past the quarter-hour mark, courtesy of an Artem Bondarenko penalty, Ireland pulled back level in first-half stoppage time when Brighton's Andrew Moran finished from close range.

Ukraine then went ahead again via another spot-kick in the 73rd minute, Danylo Sikan converting, before Celtic youngster Lawal produced a fine solo effort with eight minutes of normal time remaining to make it all square once more, going on a run from defence and striking into the corner of the net.
