INNSBRUCK, Austria (AP) — European champion Spain edged Saudi Arabia 3-2 in a World Cup warmup Saturday on an injury time goal by substitute Fernando Llorente.
Llorente headed home a score after keeper Walid Abdullah Ali misjudged a corner kick.
Slow and sloppy play had Spain trailing 1-0 after 16 minutes when Osama Hawsawi found the net with a header.
Spain rallied to lead 2-1 through a header from David Villa — his 37th goal for Spain — and a long-distance shot from Xabi Alonso.
However, Mohammed Al-Sahlawi, who come on as a substitute 10 minutes earlier, leveled for Saudi Arabia in the 74th with a deflected shot that caught Spain goalkeeper Iker Casillas off balance.
