GLASGOW, Scotland (Reuters) - Czech Republic coach Jaroslav Silhavy bemoaned his team's lack of concentration early in the second half that allowed Croatia to equalise and secure a 1-1 draw in a Euro 2020 Group D match on Friday that they controlled in the opening period.

The Czechs moved to the brink of qualifying for the last 16 after Patrik Schick's first-half penalty ensured a point against the Croats, whose own knockout hopes will go down to the wire.
