Three goals in a 10-minute spell at the start of the second half earned Spain what had looked like an unlikely win away to Macedonia. The Spanish had gone into the dressing rooms at half time training 2-0 thanks to goals from Goran Pandev. The striker, who plays his football in Italy with Lazio, had caught them on the break on two separate occasions.
The score had been harsh on Spain, who had controlled most of the ball, although the players looked short of match practice in this pre-season friendly.
Before the match kicked off both sides observed a minute's silence for former Espanyol captain Daniel Jarque, who died of a heart attack on Saturday, aged just 26.

Three minutes later Spain was on level terms as Gerard Pique poked the ball home from close range after Cesc Fabrigas' long range shot had rattled the Macedonia post.
Fabrigas had also entered the game as a second half substitute.
