FULL TIME: Macedonia 0-1 Spain.
Bernat makes ground down the left but it’s a poor cross and out for a goal kick. A lack of telling crosses from Spain tonight.
There will be a couple of additional minutes here.
Foul by Silva on Zhuta as this winds down to an inevitable conclusion.
All gone a little flat here. No noise in the stadium anymore and Spain happy to see this one out with their forte of possession football.
Ibraimi scored against Chelsea in the Champions League for Maribor last year. By far their most prolific scorer so why wasn’t he on earlier?
Macedonia sub: Radeski off for Ibraimi.
If this match remains 0-1, Spain will take a two point lead at the top of Group C. Still 0-0 in Slovakia.
If it remains like this, Spain have won this playing ugly. Nowhere near their usual levels of excellence.
A poor first pass from Iniesta who gives possession away cheaply. Been the story of the night for Spain.
Andres Iniesta comes on for his 106th appearance for spain.
Bardi was the man to come on for Macedonia.
Iniesta replaces Isco for spain.
All gone a little flat here as Askovski comes off for Macedonia.
DANGEROUS ATTACKS: Macedonia 9-41 Spain
Only one match remains goalless tonight. Slovakia v Ukraine and that will suit Spain just fine.
Replays suggested Paco was just on, which will be a relief to Pacovski. Should never have been beaten from that angle.
Paco has it in the back of the net but he's flagged offside. Looked tight!
Hard to believe how Macedonia have had such a shocker by the way they’ve played tonight. Spain have found this tough.
Inanovski comes off for Trajkovski for Macedonia.
