VIENNA (Reuters) - Hosts Austria twice hit the woodwork in a 0-0 draw with Slovakia as the pair completed their preparations for Euro 2020 with a final warm-up fixture at a sunny Ernst Happel Stadium on Sunday.

Slovakia might also have won the game when Ondrej Duda's shot towards an empty net was comically blocked on the line by his team mate Peter Pekarik, who had fallen to the ground earlier in the move.
