Silva lining for Spain against China

Seville, Spain: World and European champions Spain rounded off their preparations for Euro 2012 with a hard-earned 1-0 victory over China here Sunday.

Manchester City striker David Silva grabbed the winning goal with six minutes remaining as a well-organised Chinese side proved difficult to break down.

With several Spanish players looking to press claims for a place in Vicente Del Bosque’s side for their Euro 2012 opener against Italy next Sunday, it was Santi Cazorla, Fernando Torres and Silva who most caught the eye.
