A late goal by David Siradze earned Georgia a 1-1 draw with Ukraine in Euro 2008 qualifying on Saturday.

Siradze, who came on as a substitute on the hour, struck following an 87th-minute corner.

'We have missed a great chance, it (victory) was almost in our hands,' Ukraine coach Oleg Blokhin told a news conference.

Midfielder Oleg Shelaev had given the visitors the lead following another corner in the ninth minute.

The result left Ukraine five points adrift of joint Group B leaders Scotland, who beat Lithuania 3-1, and France, who were playing Italy later on Saturday.
