A solitary David Silva goal proved sufficient for Spain to edge out a determined Belarus 1-0 and stay in touch with Slovakia at the top of Group C.
Sliva pounced on a goalkeeping error from Andrei Gorbunov to fire Spain in front on the cusp of half time. Gorbunov, who had earlier saved well from Pedro, got nowhere near Cesc Fabregas’ free kick and Silva controlled well before firing home.
The visitors continued to dominate in terms of possession and chances and could have won by a larger margin but for the efforts of an inspired Belarus keeper.
But the victory keeps them three points behind Group C leaders Slovakia, who beat Macedonia 2-1
