Saido Berahino: 'Tie with Croatia remains in the balance'

Saido Berahino insists that England Under-21s are a long way from reaching the European Championships after beating their Croatian rivals 2-1 on Friday.

England Under-21s forward Saido Berahino has claimed that the European Championship qualifying tie with Croatia Under-21s remains in the balance following the 2-1 win for Gareth Southgate's side on Friday.

Berahino scored a late penalty at Molineux to secure a vital advantage for England, but he believes that the team must guard against complacency if they are to reach next summer's tournament.

"Of course, it is still in the balance," the West Bromwich Albion striker told BBC Sport. "Anything can happen over there but I'm confident we'll see it through.

"Concentration is the key. We have got to defend from the start to the end and not concede any more goals."

The second leg of the tie takes place on Tuesday evening.
