Barcelona’s Spain stars enjoyed a night off on Sunday, as Luis Enrique’s much-changed side secured a narrow 1-0 win over Bosnia-Herzegovina in Las Palmas.
Jordi Alba, Sergio Roberto and Sergio Busquets were all unused substitutes for the hosts, who secured the victory thanks to a debut goal from Celta Vigo’s Brais Mendez.
It was a far from convincing performance from Spain. The only goal of the game did not arrive until the 78th minute, Mendez firing home after Ibrahim Sehic had parried Isco’s shot.
The hosts did have other chances to score.
