Ched Evans' late goal handed Wales Under-21s a 2-1 win away to Bosnia-Herzegovina on Wednesday in European U21 Championship qualifying.A late rally saw Wales record a fifth straight win in their Group 10 campaign, taking them four points clear of second-placed Romania.

Boubacar Dialida Diabang gave the home side a second-half lead, before Simon Church looked to have saved a point in the 86th minute.

But Evans, currently on loan at Norwich from Manchester City, secured a win that guarantees the Welsh youngsters will remain top of their group going into their double-header against the young Romanians.

Manager Brian Flynn brought in Tottenham youngster Chris Gunter at right-back for Darcy Blake in the only change from last month's 4-0 win in Malta.

Wales had hammered Bosnia 4-0 in the reverse fixture at the Racecourse Ground last November, but the hosts' pacy attack was a major threat early on.

Wrexham's Mike Williams had a first-half 'goal' ruled out for shoving at a Joe Jacobson corner as the opening period ended goalless.

It looked set to be a costly decision when the Bosnians took the lead in the 59th minute. Welsh goalkeeper Owain Fon Williams should have done better with Diabang's low 20-yard shot - but it somehow squirted from his grasp and into the net.

The goalkeeper's embarrassment was eased when Church drilled home the equaliser, and Evans then clinched the win with a clinical finish for his seventh of the campaign.

The victory in Sarajevo leaves Flynn's team with a good chance to qualify for the tournament finals in Sweden in 2009.
