  Iker Casillas

  The Real Madrid goalkeeper could do little about Olivier Giroud's well-taken headed equaliser, and before France scored he pulled off a couple of fine stops from Karim Benzema and Franck Ribery.

  Arbeloa

  The dependable full-back put in a good shift for his side this evening, looking strong in the tackle and getting forward to support his team's attackers whenever he could. Forced off injured early in the second-half following a challenge with Ribery.

  Jordi Alba

  The Barcelona left-back was full of running throughout, and pinned France's right-back Mathieu Debuchy back on numerous occasions with his overlapping runs into the France penalty area.

  Sergio Ramos

  The Real Madrid centre-back opened the scoring for the home side with an emphatic side-foot finish, after his initial header had crashed against the right-hand post. His positioning was sound defensively against his club team-mate Karim Benzema, but he was beaten to the ball by Giroud in the dying moments as the Arsenal striker equalised for France.

  Busquets

  Busquets again proved his value to Vicente del Bosque by dropping in at centre-back in the absence of Gerard Pique and Carlos Puyol, and again he performed admirably, particularly up against the physical threat of Benzema, and the pace and trickery of Franck Ribery and Jeremy Menez.

  David Silva

  The 26-year-old suffered what looked like a hamstring injury early in the first-half and was replaced by Santi Cazorla.

  Cesc Fàbregas

  The Barcelona attacker was guilty of wasting a glorious chance to make it 2-0 before the break when Hugo Lloris saved his penalty.

  Andrés Iniesta Luján

  The composed midfielder put in a good performance for his side without excelling. There were times when he uncharacteristically gave the ball away in attacking areas, and handed the initiative to his side's opponents.

  Xabi Alonso

  The Real Madrid midfielder was comfortable in possession for La Roja, and started a number of promising attacks with some opportunistic passing. He tired in the second-half as France came back into the game.

  Xavi

  The veteran international was in fine form for the home side tonight, and did not deserve to be on the losing side. Metronomic with his passing as ever in the centre of the pitch for Spain.

  Pedro

  For the second successive match the Barcelona forward's movement caused all sorts of problems for the opposition's defence, and it was he that won the penalty late in the first-half after he dribbled his way past Laurent Koscielny.

  Juanfran Flop of the Match

  Booked for time-wasting late on and was then guilty of giving away possession when France equalised. Looked out of depth after replacing the injured Alvaro Arbeloa.

  Santi Cazorla

  The Arsenal midfielder was an early introduction from the bench following Silva's injury, and slotted into the Spain midfield seamlessly. Willing to help out defensively, and proved a threat going forward in the first-half.

  Hugo Lloris

  The Tottenham goalkeeper pulled off a string of fine saves towards the end of the first-half to limit Spain to one goal in the opening period. His penalty save from Fabregas was superb, as was his double stop from Pedro and then Fabregas again just minutes later.

  Laurent Koscielny

  The Arsenal centre-back was caught out positionally by the likes of Pedro and Fabregas, particularly when he fouled Pedro in his own penalty area, which resulted in a penalty kick to Spain in the first-half. He put in a fine block on Xavi as the Barcelona man shaped to shoot midway through the second period.

  Mathieu Debuchy

  The right-back had his hands full this evening up against Pedro and Jordi Alba, and this limited his ability to get forward and help his team in attack. Put in a decent performance defensively against Spain's vibrant attacking line-up.

  Mamadou Sakho

  The 22-year-old struggled with the agility of Pedro and Fabregas at times this evening, but was still dominant in the air for the away side.

  Patrice Evra

  The Manchester United left-back linked well with Ribery down the left for Les Bleus, but was unable to get forward as much as he would have liked due to the large spells of possession that Spain enjoyed.

  Blaise Matuidi

  The 25-year-old was a strong physical presence in Les Bleus' midfield, as they came into the game knowing they would not see a lot of the ball. His energetic play, and desire to chase the ball when not in possession was a key factor as France came back into the match in the second- half.

  Franck Ribéry

  The Bayern Munich winger upped his game after the break, and became the focal point of his side's play as they went in search of an equaliser. He caused problems for both Alba and Juanfran on either flank. Provided the assist for Giroud's late equaliser with an inch-perfect cross.

  Jérémy Menez

  The Paris Saint-Germain attacker looked to stretch Spain's back-line with his pace and direct running, but only really got the opportunity to do that in the second-half, following Arbeloa's injury. Was replaced by Sissoko with 20 minutes to go.

  Maxime Gonalons

  The Olympique Lyonnais midfielder was full of running and endeavour in the centre of the pitch, and hassled the likes of Xavi and Iniesta well. Replaced by Valbuena in the second-half.

  Yohan Cabaye

  The central midfielder was comfortable on the ball for Les Bleus, and did not look out of place against the likes of Xavi and Iniesta. Neat and tidy in possession, he always offered himself to take the ball from his defence when they looked to relieve the pressure from Spain's attack.

  Karim Benzema Top of the Match

  The Real Madrid striker forced his club team-mate Iker Casillas into a fine save midway through the first-half with a fizzing effort, and proved a thorn in Spain's side in the second period as he attempted to drag Busquets and Ramos out of position, and get in behind the Spain defence.

  The midfielder provided a fresh set of legs after the break as his side chased the game. Robbed the ball off Juanfran and started the move that France equalised from in the final minute.

  Olivier Giroud

  The striker was his side's hero tonight as he came off the bench late on to head home the equaliser in the dying moments of the match.
