A quick summary of action around UEFA on FRI 22-SAT 23 MAR 2013.

• Israel 03-03 Portugal: Hélder POSTIGA and Fábio COENTRÃO led Portugal back from a 3-1 deficit, leaving the teams level on second place in Group F.
• Croatia 02-00 Serbia: The first match between these nations was always going to be politically charged, and it was contested hard but fair. Mario MANDŽUDIĆ and Ivica OLIĆ were the goalscorers as the home side kept pace with Belgium in Group A.
• Slovenia 01-02 Iceland: Gylfi SIGURDSSON scored a second half brace, pulling Iceland to within two points of Group E leaders Switzerland.
• Czech Rep 00-03 Denmark: Three second half goals, all from different players, gave the Danes their first win in Group B. Both teams are still four points adrift of second placed Bulgaria but each have a match in hand.
• Hungary 02-02 Romania: Vilmos VANCZÁK put the home side ahead in the first half. The teams swapped spot kick goals in the second half, but Romania salvaged a point in stoppage time from substitute Alexandru CHIPCIU. Both teams are five points behind Group D leaders the Netherlands.
• Sweden 00-00 Ireland Rep: Neither side was able to make up ground on Group C leaders Germany, but Irish hopes were further dented by an injury to captain Robbie KEANE.
• Bosnia-Herzegovina 03-01 Greece: Two goals from Edin DŽEKO led the Bosnians to first place in Group G.
• Spain 01-01 Finland: Sergio RAMOS celebrated his 100th cap with a goal for la Furia Roja, but Finland took a point off the world and European champions. Teemu PUKKI equalised in the 79th minute, allowing France to take first in Group I.
• Northern Ireland-Russia [postponed]: This match could not be played in two attempts, as heavy snow in Belfast left the pitch unplayable.
