Spain got back on track at Euro 2000 after their shock opening defeat to Norway with a 2-1 win over Slovenia in Group C. Raul scored an early goal for Spain in only the fifth minute but Slovenia fought back and equalised with a goal in the 59th minute from Zlatko Zahovic, the tournament's top scorer with three to his name. Spain were back ahead within a minute, Joseba Etxeberria driving home under Slovene keeper Mladen Dabanovic's body after a glorious through ball from Gaizka Mendieta. Spain have three points and will qualify for the quarter-finals if they beat Yugoslavia in their final group match. Slovenia have one point and will have to beat Norway in their last game to have a chance.
