Full-time, and a resounding victory for Spain - perhaps slightly harsh on Macedonia.
90'+3
Macedonia have a last-gasp effort, skimming square across the face of goal, but nobody there to tap in.

GOAL! And as I say that, Pedro wraps it up with the fifth. Silva plays him in, and he chips the keeper beautifully.
89'
Winding down now. Some muted applause for the accuracy of Spain's passing.
88'
Casillas's fingers are stung by another Trajkovski shot.

Good run from Trajkovski there, and another assertive save from Casillas.
85'
Macedonia continue to look for that second goal, while one of their players is instructed to get some shinpads. Who doesn't play with shinpads?

Great save from Casillas, tipping over a curling shot from Ibraimi.

And Munir is on for his debut, replacing Koke, who picked up that booking earlier.

Final change for Macedonia, Abdurahimi off for Velkoski.

More consecutive little touches in the box, Alba, Silva and Pedro combining fruitlessly.

Pedro was unlucky there to have the ball played in just behind him, forcing him to turn in circles to take possession. A few centimetres in front and that would have been number five.
