Spain's new under 17 squad played a couple of warm up games against the USA prior to their European qualifiers next month. Gines Meléndez's side won both matches, the first thanks to a late goal from Real Sociedad's Iker Hernández, and the second after strikes from Real Madrid's De Tomás and Barcelona's Deulofeu cancelled out an early penalty.
