Spain vs. Bosnia and Herzegovina: 2016 International Friendly Score and Reaction

Spain stepped up their preparations for the 2016 European Championship with a 3-1 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina on Sunday in Switzerland.

Nolito netted a brace inside the opening 18 minutes of the encounter before Emir Spahic headed in from a corner.

The central defender was later sent off for raising his hands to David Silva, but the dismissal lifted the performance of the Bosnian players. Pedro then made sure of the result in second-half stoppage time, tucking away a rebound from close range.

Real and Atletico Madrid's Spain internationals were unavailable for selection for the clash due to their UEFA Champions League commitments, having played out the competition showdown on Saturday evening in Milan.
