Fernando Torres, Xabi Alonso, Albert Riera and Alvaro Arbeloa all line-up for Spain today in the third place play-off of the FIFA Confederations Cup in South Africa.
After their shock 2-0 defeat to the USA in mid-week, Spain play the host nation, who lost narrowly to Brazil in the semi-finals.
Torres is looking to secure the Golden Boot award. He is currently joint top scorer with three goals, all scored against New Zealand in Spain’s emphatic 5-0 thrashing of the Kiwis in the group stage.
Fellow Red Pepe Reina starts on the bench for the Spanish today, with captain Iker Casillas preferred in goal.
Kick-off is 2pm (UK).
