Spain fight back to beat Costa Rica
Spain hit back from conceding an early goal to defeat Costa Rica 2-1 in an international friendly at Leon on Thursday.
Johan Venegas gave Costa Rica a sixth-minute lead but Paco Alcacer levelled just two minutes later.
Chelsea star Cesc Fabregas hit the winner on the half-hour mark as Spain looked ahead to Sunday’s Euro 2016 qualifying trip to Belarus with a victory under their belts.
