Spain 2-1 Haiti: Warming up for Confederations Cup

In preparation for the Confederations Cup, Spain played a friendly against Haiti in Miami and won easily 2-1. The match was also for charity, raising money for victims of the earthquakes that devastated Haiti in 2010.

Cazorla and Fabregas scored two goals for the reigning EURO and World Cup champions while Wilde Guerrier scored a consolation goal for Haiti.

Against an opponent ranked 62 places below them on the FIFA rankings, Spain played in a friendly spirit and created countless scoring opportunities, but either Soldado, Javi Martinez, Juan Mata's shots lacked accuracy or Jesus Navas's shot was on target but was denied by the Haitian goalkeeper.

In addition, luck also turned its back on coach Vicente del Bosque's players when they hit the post twice. After all, this was just a warm-up match for Spain and they focused on the ability to coordinate between the main players and the reserves as well as the operation of the whole team rather than the issue of winning or losing. Before participating in the Confederations Cup, Spain also played a final friendly match against Giovani Trapatttoni's Republic of Ireland.
