Albania 0-2 Romania

TIRANA, Sept 6 (Reuters) - Romania scored twice late on to beat Albania 2-0 in their Euro 2008 Group G qualifier on Wednesday.

The match appeared to be heading for a draw when Albania's Bekim Kastrati's mistake gave Romania striker Nicolae Dica the chance to put his side ahead after 65 minutes.

Adrian Mutu was at the heart of Romania's best moments, while Albania struggled to find the attacking spark that allowed them to come back from two goals down against Belarus on Saturday.

Romania made sure of victory after Albania defender Debatik Curri pushed Florentin Petre from behind after 75 minutes and Mutu converted the penalty kick.
