Greece qualified for a second successive
World Cup after another Kostas Mitroglou
goal secured a 1-1 draw with Romania in
the second leg of their playoff on Tuesday
and a 4-2 victory on aggregate.
Mitroglou, who scored twice in Greece's
3-1 first-leg win on Friday, beat the
offside trap midway through the first half
and gave keeper Ciprian Tatarusanu no
chance with his 22nd goal in all
competitions this season.
Romania equalised 10 minutes after the
break when Vasilis Torosidis struck the
ball past his own goalkeeper, Orestis
Karnezis, from the edge of the area for an
astonishing own goal.
