Daun double not enough for Germany

Two goals from Bayer 04 Leverkusen midfielder Markus Daun provided Germany with a closing success in their UEFA European Under-21 Championship campaign at Finland's expense, but the result was not enough to give Hannes Löhr's side a place in the play-offs.

Third best for Germans
The Germans, who required a Greek victory in England in order to have a chance of extending their run in the competition, took the lead in the 63rd minute before adding a second goal six minutes from the end. Meanwhile, England's defeat of Greece gave David Platt's side top spot with 17 points from eight matches. The Greeks finished second with 16 points, level with the Germans, but they advance having a better head-to-head record.
