Teenage striker Gabriel lived up to his nickname ‘Gabigol' Sunday when he came off the bench to score on his debut in Brazil's 2-0 win over Panama. The 19-year-old replaced Jonas after 62 minutes of the friendly match in Colorado and slotted home Brazil's second with his left foot 10 minutes later. Jonas had opened the scoring in the second minute for a compact and solid Brazil. "I am very happy with the debut and the goal," Gabriel said in a televised interview after Brazil's final warmup ahead of next week's Centenary Copa America in the United States. "It was a dream come true for me to play alongside players like Kaka and Dani Alves." Brazil opens its Copa America campaign against Ecuador and also faces Haiti and Peru in Group B of the 16-team tournament. In another friendly Sunday, Colombia beat Haiti 3-1. Spain beats Bosnia In Switzerland, forward Manuel "Nolito" Agudo scored two first-half goals to lead Spain to a 3-1 win over 10-man Bosnia in a warmup match Sunday for the European Championship. The two-time defending champion prevailed despite playing with a depleted squad and with coach Vicente del Bosque testing out several players ahead of Tuesday's deadline for teams to announce their final Euro 2016 squads. Del Bosque gave a chance for three newcomers to start — goalkeeper Sergio Asenjo, defender Hector Bellerin and midfielder Marco Asensio. It was Spain's first of three warmup games. It will also play South Korea on Wednesday in Austria, before hosting Georgia on June 7. Germany falls to Slovakia Germany's European Championship preparations had a setback Sunday in a 3-1 thunderstorm-interrupted defeat to Slovakia. Goals at the end of the half from Marek Hamsik and Michal Duris gave Slovakia a 2-1 lead at the interval in the Euro 2016 warmup before the storm peppered the pitch with large hailstones and heavy rain. Play resumed almost 40 minutes later on the water-sodden pitch, but ball control proved difficult for both sides. The unmarked Juraj Kucka, who earlier conceded the penalty from which Mario Gomez opened the scoring, made up for it in the 52nd minute with a volley to Patrik Hrosovsky's corner, sending the wet ball through the unfortunate Marc-Andre ter Stegen's hands and legs. Ronaldo not missed Portugal made sure the absence of top scorer Cristiano Ronaldo, resting the day after Real Madrid's Champions League triumph, went unnoticed as it thrashed Norway 3-0 in a Euro 2016 warm-up also Sunday. Ronaldo would have been impressed with the finishing of his international team mates as Ricardo Quaresma and Raphael Guerreiro netted spectacular goals before Eder added a clinical third at the Dragao stadium. Pelle lifts Italy Italy dominated against Scotland but only scraped a 1-0 win in its penultimate warmup match before the European Championship, and the Azzurri's wayward shooting will be of concern to coach Antonio Conte. The main culprit was Emanuele Giaccherini, who missed three golden opportunities in the first half. Graziano Pelle scored the only goal of the game shortly before the hour mark. — Agencies
