MORENO! He arrows a shot across goal towards the top-left corner but Reina is equal to it without too much fuss. Surely that will be the last chance.
90' +3
Illarramendi gets yellow.
This time he just tries to float it into the box and an initial clearance falls to Deulofeu, but he runs it into a dead end and Colombia manage to get it away.
Yellow card Asier Illarramendi Andonegi
90' +2
Spain have a free-kick in a great area after Zapata goes through the back of Morata. It is almost from exactly the same spot that Koke forced Ospina into a save earlier, and the Atletico Madrid midfielder stands over it again...
90'
We are going to have a minimum of four added minutes! That's certainly enough time for a winning goal.
88'
J. Izquierdo enters the game and replaces J. Cuadrado.
Jose Izquierdo is on in place of Cuadrado.
87'
Álvaro Morata has scored a goal for Spain! Assist by Saúl.
GOOOOOAAAAAAALL!! SPAIN LEVEL!! Madrid striker Morata darts in front of Zapata and steers a header across Ospina and inside the far post! The home fans are overjoyed!
It was an excellent delivery from Saul, who found Morata charging in at the near post.
86'
Colombia get forward through Armero on the left and he passes inside for Moreno. The attacking midfielder manages to earn a corner which is powered straight into the gloves of Reina.
84'
Deulofeu goes up against Torres and manages to earn his side a corner. Colombia deal with the ball into the box comfortably and the pressure once again subsides. Spain have lost their fluency in attack and don't appear capable of getting back into this.
82'
Morata attempts to slip a pass to the byline for Deulofeu, but he is shepherded out of play by Murillo. Spain don't have long to avoid a first defeat under Lopetegui.

Description
80'
L. Muriel enters the game and replaces J. Rodríguez.
James gets a great reception from the Colombia fans as he goes off for Luis Muriel. He's played brilliantly tonight.
78'
Moreno delves into his box of tricks and pulls out a rabona cross from the right wing. There's no one trying to connect with it, though, as Reina comes off his line to claim it.
77'
C. Bacca enters the game and replaces R. Falcao.
That's not what you want to see when you're a centre-back; Falcao off and Carlos Bacca on.
76'
Vitolo enters the game and replaces Pedro.
Battle of the Real Madrid team-mates as James races back to dispossess Morata outside the Colombia box. The Spaniard isn't too happy about it and fouls his club-mate in response, taking his frustration out on the referee as James gees up a section of the Colombia support.
Vitiolo is on in place of Pedro for the closing stages.
74'
Saul challenges Torres for an aerial ball in the box but it comes off his arm and the referee blows for a free-kick. The whistle comes too late for Armero to pull out of a high footed challenge as Saul tries to grab the ball, and he gets off without a second yellow card.
73'
The goal-mouth action that had made this game so entertaining for an hour has started to dry up. Hopefully it doesn't remain this way for the final few minutes.
71'
P. Armero gets yellow.
Armero goes into the book for an aggressive challenge on Monreal, the referee suggesting his stamping motion is to blame for the card.
69'
Spain are beginning to dominate possession again, though much of it is coming around the halfway line. Colombia seem happy to sit back and try and break, as they did in the first half.
67'
G. Moreno enters the game and replaces E. Cardona.
D. Torres enters the game and replaces A. Aguilar.
Pekerman goes to his bench and sends Daniel Torres on for Aguilar.
Playmaker Giovanni Moreno comes in for Cardona.
65'
Spain are starting to find their stride now. They're linking up nicely going forward but Colombia are proving very physical and managing to keep their opportunities restricted.
63'
SO CLOSE! This match has become so stretched! A cross from Illarramendi is met by the head of Morata, who glances his effort just wide of the upright. Ospina wouldn't have got near it!
62'
Cardona tries a searching diagonal pass to Cuadrado on the right, but his acrobatic attempt to bring it down gets away from him.
60'
STUNNING SAVE! Pedro fools Aguilar and receives contact that sends him to ground. The referee awards a free-kick which Koke bends towards the top-left corner. Ospina dives across his goal and turns the shot behind with a strong right hand.
58'
Now it is Colombia who appear to have the greater confidence in possession. Perhaps Lopetegui's changes have taken the fluency out of Spain. They may start clicking as the half wears on.
56'
Deulofeu enters the game and replaces Piqué.
Álvaro Morata enters the game and replaces Iago Aspas.
Alvaro Morata comes on for Aspas.
Lopetegui immediately responds with a pair of changes - his first sees Pique make way for Gerard Deulofeu.
55'
R. Falcao has scored a goal for Colombia! Assist by J. Rodríguez.
GOOOOOOAAAAAL!!! COLOMBIA LEAD! Cardona clips a nice cross into the box for Falcao, but Monreal nods it behind for a corner. James runs over to take it and finds Falcao racing in at the back post with a fine header beyond Reina!
GOOOOOOAAAAAL!!! COLOMBIA LEAD! Cardona clips a nice cross into the box for Falcao, but Monreal nods it behind for a corner. James runs over to take it and finds Falcao racing in at the back post with a fine header beyond Reina! That's his first international goal for over two years!
Another great delivery from James proves key for Colombia.
53'
WELL WIDE! Another positive down the right ends with the ball sitting up nicely for Monreal on the left-hand side of the box, but he slices his shot miles off target.
52'
Asensio gets away down the right-hand channel but he slows down the play by trying to check inside of Murillo. He spots Monreal making a run into space but his attempt to find him his interception.
50'
Cuadrado looks to break down the right but again Nacho manages to keep him at bay. Spain try to play it out from the back but Monreal is deemed to have let the ball run out of play, so Colombia get a throw-in.
48'
Ospina remains down receiving treatment. It was the knee of Murillo that caught him in the head, but he's back on his feet and looks like he will continue.
47'
Early chance for Spain! Asensio initiates a one-two before drilling towards Saul at the near post. His touch lets him down with Ospina diving at his heels and although the goalkeeper collects the ball, he seems to have taken a blow to the head.
46'
Saúl enters the game and replaces Jordi Alba.
Ó. Murillo enters the game and replaces D. Sánchez.
Nacho Monreal enters the game and replaces David Silva.
Marco Asensio enters the game and replaces Andrés Iniesta.
Champions League final goalscorer Marco Asensio replaces Iniesta.
Alba goes off for Saul Niguez.
We are back underway.
Silva's evening is over, with Nacho Monreal on in his place.
Colombia's only change sees Oscar Murille replace Davinson Sanchez.
45' +1
Perhaps trying to get a little retribution, Aspas needlessly trips Cardona. In a bid to let tempers cool, the referee blows for half-time.
45'
D. Sánchez gets yellow.
Another yellow card for a full-blooded challenge from Davinson Sanchez! He was very late on Aspas and rightly goes into the book.
44'
After a pat on the back from Lopetegui Silva is back into the fray. He is soon in possession of the ball once more, chipping a pass over the defence intended for Aspas that runs out of play.
42'
Silva signals to the bench and seems to be suggesting that he will not be able to continue.
41'
It can't be said that Colombia don't deserve that goal. Reina had not really been tested, but they've played positive football and proved a threat on the break. However, Pique, Azpilicueta and Reina will no doubt have a discussion about that at half-time.
39'
E. Cardona has scored a goal for Colombia! Assist by J. Cuadrado.
It's great to see a friendly with a bit of feistiness to it! Cardona backs into Koke before spinning away on the left, with Silva diving in and perhaps fortunate to avoid a second yellow. Armero rushes over and challenges the Spain goalscorer, with Azpilicueta seeming to take objection.
I'm pretty sure Cuadrado didn't envision a goal coming when he lofted the ball into the box, but his risk paid off!
GOOOOOOOAAAAAL!!! COLOMBIA ARE LEVEL! That is really shoddy from Spain! Cuadrado's hopeful hoof into the box is left by both Pique and Azpilicueta, but Reina isn't close enough to collect. Cardona darts in between and loops an excellent finish over the onrushing keeper!
37'
James has been one of the most impressive players on the pitch so far. He has another go at goal, this time from outside the box on the right-hand side. He strikes it low and towards the near post, but Reina is well positioned to hold it at the first time of asking.
36'
David Silva gets yellow.
Great work from Falcao! He turns away from the tackle of Illarramendi in the centre circle and cuts across Silva, who trips him and earns a yellow card.
34'
JAAAAAMES!! CLOSE! The Colombia skipper is found on the edge of the box and cuts inside of Iniesta. Rather than shoot with his right he attempts to pick out the bottom corner with the outside of his left boot, sending an audacious effort narrowly wide!
33'
An attempt between Armero and Cardona to combine down the left does not go well, with the left-back sending an attempt pass down the wing out of play for a throw-in to the hosts.
31'
J. Cuadrado gets yellow.
Jordi Alba gets yellow.
That's not so 'friendly'. Cuadrado and Alba get into a bit of a scrap after the Juve man reacts to a clumsy foul from the left-back by lashing out, earning himself a yellow card. Players from both teams rush in to separate them!
Unsurprisingly, Alba is booked for his part too. There was no attempt to win the ball from him in the first place.
30'
WHAT A CHANCE! Spain work a throw-in on the right well, Azpilicueta rolling a pass down the right for Koke. He picks out Aspas at the near post and the Celta Vigo man attempts to flick the ball home with his trailing leg, but he is unable to find the target.
28'
James finds space on the right and sends a low cross towards the near post for Falcao. He is watched closely by Pique and his first touch is loose, making it impossible for him to get a shot away.
26'
If it wasn't a friendly that could well have been a card! Pedro lunges in on James, catching the Colombia skipper's heel with his studs. The referee only awards a free-kick.
25'
A sliding pass down the left-hand channel from Iniesta is looking for Aspas, but Zapata cuts it out and takes his time to release the ball. Colombia just trying to slow the tempo.
23'
Iniesta has gone off the pitch having seemingly taken a knock in the build-up to the goal. He's back on, and Spain will be hoping he can run that off.
22'
David Silva has scored a goal for Spain! Assist by Pedro.
GOOOOOOOAAAAALL!! SILVA GIVES SPAIN THE LEAD! A great move after Colombia fail to make the most of a free-kick in a decent position. Pedro provides a dangerous delivery from the right wing, finding Silva as he bursts past Davinson Sanchez to steer home from the edge of the six-yard box. Ospina got a hand to it but couldn't keep it out!
Pedro placed that cross into the perfect place, making it easy for Silva to finish the job.
20'
Pedro dribbles inside from the right and lets fly with an ambitious left-footed shot. Ospina is confident it's sailing over and doesn't even need to watch as it flashes over the top of his goal.
19'
A sweeping ball from left to right sees Cardona switch the play to Cuadrado. He is invited forward and looks for the head of Falcao with a delivery into the area. It's too high for the Monaco forward, though.
17'
Cardona makes a mess of trying to cut out a pass to Azpilicueta on the right, completely missing the ball and almost stumbling over. Azpilicueta swings a cross into the middle looking for Silva, but he only finds the gloves of Ospina.
16'
Spain are awarded a free-kick on the far side as Cuadrado catches Alba on the back of the leg. There wasn't much in it, but the left-back is down on the floor holding his ankle. He'll be fine to continue.
15'
Colombia are showing they are not willing to let Spain dominate this game. The hosts will need to be wary of a counter-attack that looks like it could be quite potent.
13'
PENALTY! No, it's offside! Falcao appears to be tugged back by Pique as he looks to get to a rebound first after Reina pushes out Cuadrado's powerful 25-yard drive. However, he was in an illegal position, so it's a free-kick to Spain rather than a spot-kick.
11'
Well over! A short corner gives Koke a chance to pull the trigger from 25 yards out, but he's nowhere near working Ospina with a wild shot.
10'
GREAT SAVE! Iniesta slides a lovely pass right through the heart of the Colombia defence, finding Silva as he moves into a glaring hole. His first touch is great, but Ospina rushes out to stop his shot finding the net. Carlos Sanchez blocks his follow-up before a third attempt is dived upon by Ospina!
9'
That's more like it! Falcao's diagonal pass releases Cuadrado down the right, but it is slightly overhit so the move quickly loses pace. Cuadrado takes on Nacho in an attempt to dribble into the box but he Madrid defender comes out on top.
8'
Cardona attempts to launch a quick break with Colombia afforded a rare opportunity to touch the ball, but his pass down the left is not chased by Falcao. Reina is free to walk off his line and collect it.
6'
Great interplay down the right sees Aspas flick a pass into the path of Azpilicueta, who picks out Silva on the edge of the box from the byline. Silva takes a couple of touches before releasing a shot that is blocked by the closing Colombia defenders.
5'
Ospina is forced off his line to smother a dangerous ball into the box. Colombia appear to be lining up in a 4-4-2 formation, with James partnering Falcao in attack. Perhaps the captain is set for a free role tonight.
4'
Falcao puts Koke under pressure near the halfway line and manages to nick the ball away from the Atletico Madrid man. He tries to square for the supporting James but his pass is intercepted.
2'
Spain quickly take control of possession, knocking the ball around at the back. Pique's first touch is greeted with widespread jeers and whistles, as seems customary for the outspoken Barcelona centre-back.
1'
After a minute of reflection in memory of the recently passed Marcos Coll, who was the only player to score directly from a corner at a World Cup, Colombia get the ball rolling.
Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the international friendly between Spain and Colombia from the Estadio Nueva Condomina in Murcia.
Spain are gearing up for a World Cup qualifier against Macedonia on Sunday, so this match against Colombia should provide them with a more than adequate primer. Julen Lopetegui's side sit joint-top with Italy in Group G, so maximum points will be a necessity in Skopje at the weekend.
For Jose Pekerman this is merely a chance to look at some different combinations and prepare for a strong finish to their World Cup qualifying campaign. One bad result could see Colombia drop out of the automatic qualification places, so keeping things positive here - and against Cameroon next week - is certainly important.
Spain (4-3-3): Pepe Reina; Cesar Azpilicueta, Gerard Pique, Nacho Fernandez, Jordi Alba; Koke, Asier Illarramendi, Andres Iniesta; Pedro, David Silva, Iago Aspas.
The teams have been announced, so let's see how they will be lining up.
Colombia (4-2-3-1): David Ospina; Santiago Arias, Cristian Zapata, Davinson Sanchez, Pablo Amero; Carlos Sanchez, Abel Aguilar; Juan Cuadrado, James Rodriguez, Edwin Cardona; Radamel Falcao.
Although Spain are the home team, plenty of eyes will be on James and Davinson Sanchez tonight. The Colombia skipper faces an uncertain close-season after being left out of Real Madrid's Champions League final squad, with reports suggesting he could well be on the move. Sanchez, meanwhile, has been heavily linked with a switch to Barcelona after impressing in his first season at Ajax.
There's a pretty decent turn out in Murcia and the fans welcome the two sets of players onto the pitch. We'll have the national anthems and shortly after we will be underway.
Pique, Pedro and Iniesta also featured in that 1-0 win for Spain. Colombia have six players who featured that night in their squad again: Ospina, Armero, Carlos Sanchez, Aguilar, Moreno, Cuadrado.
It looks as though Silva will be playing as a false nine for Spain tonight. The Manchester City man scored the only goal when these sides last met - a friendly at Santiago Bernabeu in 2011.
HALF-TIME - Spain 1-1 Colombia: A very entertaining friendly sees it remain all-square at the break, with Cardona capitalising on a defensive miscommunication to cancel out Silva's opener. There have been plenty of tasty tackles and you can tell both teams want to win this one. Stay tuned for the second half.
The teams are back out and it looks like we're going to have a number of substitutions before the restart.
That's it for tonight. Thanks for joining us!
FULL-TIME - Spain 2-2 Colombia: Lopetegui avoids a first defeat at the helm thanks to Morata's late header. Spain initially led through Silva, but goals from Cardona and Falcao - whose 26th strike for his country makes him their undisputed highest-scoring player in history - turned the match around. Morata ensured the hosts emerged relatively unscathed ahead of a World Cup qualifier against Macedonia, though.
