Andres Iniesta Could Feature For Spain Against Bosnia, Fernando Torres Out - Report

It appears as though 'El Nino' has failed in his bid for fitness ahead of la Seleccion's final World Cup qualifier, but there is better news regarding the Barcelona star...

Down and out! Spain striker Fernando Torres watches his side crash out of the Confederations Cup at the hands of the USA
Vicente del Bosque is preparing to take a decision on both Andres Iniesta and Fernando Torres ahead of Spain's match with Bosnia-Herzegovina on Wednesday evening.

The coach has seen both players take part in training today, but Marca reports that Torres did some physio work while the rest of the squad played a practice match.

In addition, the Liverpool striker trudged dejectedly back to the changing rooms when the team took part in some shooting practice, looking like an injured player.

On the other hand, Iniesta's attitude was more positive than that of his team-mate, and he could play 50-60 minutes against Bosnia-Herzegovina.

If it is decided that Torres cannot play, Del Bosque will be down to 18 players, including his three 'keepers. Moreover, it will mean that 'El Nino' went through the entire qualifying campaign without scoring.

Iker Casillas looks set to win his 99th cap for La Furia Roja when they kick off in Zenica.
