PLOIESTI, Romania (Reuters) - Romania kept alive their slim hopes of finishing top in Group 4 in the third tier of the Nations League after George Puscas's first international goal set them on their way to a 3-0 win over Lithuania on Saturday.

Second-half strikes by Claudiu Keseru and Nicolae Stanciu wrapped up a comfortable victory that left the unbeaten Romanians second on nine points from five games.
