Key events<\/p>\n
90+1 min Jude Bellingham has been offensively good in the second half.<\/p>\n
Share<\/a><\/p>\n 90 min O\u2019Reilly is struggling with cramp; England<\/a> have used all their subs I think. There will be 48 hours five minutes of added time.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 89 min: England<\/a> substitution Jarrad Branthwaite replaces Marc Guehi in defence.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 88 min A superb cross from Rogers in the right is bobbled behind for a corner by Pubill.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 86 min Anderson slides a good ball down the left side of the area towards Garner, whose chipped cross takes Simon out of the game but is too high for Calvert-Lewin.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 84 min Bellingham, the England<\/a> captain now that Kane has gone off, drags a long-range shot too close to Simon.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a016.31 EDT<\/p>\n 83 min: England<\/a> substitutions Morgan Gibbs-White and Dominic Calvert-Lewin replace Bukayo Saka and Harry Kane.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 82 min Spain<\/a> substitution Mikel Merino for Dani Olmo.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 81 min Now Spain are sitting a bit deeper, inviting England<\/a> to show them what they\u2019ve got. Bellingham finds Saka, who goes over under a challenge from Cucurealla in the area. Cucurella got a slight touch on the ball, so no penalty. Spain beak and Bellingham is booked for a tactical foul.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 79 min \u201cPedri, Rob, just Pedri,\u201d says Ruth Purdue. \u201cHe made that goal. Just an invisible force of technique. The interception when it was fired at him at the start of the buildup for the goal\u2026 wow.\u201d<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 77 min \u201cAfter being put on the back foot by Spain, England<\/a> have shown spark but Harry Kane\u2019s missed penalty and a second defensive blunder is taking its toll,\u201d writes Colum Fordham. \u201cAs the excellent Anthony Gordon said prior to the match, England have to play to their strengths. Playing the Spanish way \u2018is not in us\u2019. It might be time to give Trent AA a chance to show his skills with his crosses and long-range passing.\u201d<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a016.23 EDT<\/p>\n What a delicious goal. Baena found a pocket of space just outside the D and guided a perfect angled pass into the area for Oyarzabal. He took a touch on the run and teased the softest of chips over Trafford with his left foot. The defensive gaps were probably too big, and Laporte probably shouldn\u2019t have been allowed to punch a pass through to Baena, but the creation of the goal was beautiful.<\/p>\n Mikel Oyarzabal celebrates giving Spain the lead.

England 2-3 Spain (Oyarzabal 74)<\/p>\n It\u2019s Spain\u2019s game now!<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 73 min This is still anyone\u2019s game, but Spain<\/a> have been so much better since that missed penalty from Kane.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a016.22 EDT<\/p>\n 70 min: Spain<\/a> substitution Pedri on, Fabian Ruiz off.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 70 min: Double substitution for England<\/a> Morgan Rogers and James Garner replace Anthony Gordon and Myles Lewis-Skelly, who were both excellent. To these admittedly tired eyes, Lewis-Skelly looks a proper midfield player.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a016.17 EDT<\/p>\n 69 min This game is so open. Yamal\u2019s long-range shot is blocked at one end; Lewis-Skelly\u2019s long-range curler is comfortably saved by Simon at the other.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 68 min \u201cIt looks like the City players are affected by the charges,\u201d writes Colin Greener. \u201cErrors from O\u2019Reilly, Guehi, and even Rodri. Doesn\u2019t explain the Cucurella one though.\u201d<\/p>\n He does have the same initials. Bit like Jarvis and Jesus.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a016.18 EDT<\/p>\n 67 min O\u2019Reilly is booked for tattooing Yamal\u2019s right calf.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 66 min Saka, found by the increasingly influential Bellingham, whips a trademark curler just wide of the far post. Lovely effort.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 62 min Olmo\u2019s shot from the edge of the D is well blocked by Guehi. Spain<\/a> have woken up.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Spain are level after another mistake from England<\/a>. Nico O\u2019Reilly\u2019s errant pass went straight to Olmo on the right wing, just outside the area. He fired a pass into Baena, who made room to shape an emphatic shot past Trafford from 20 yards. That\u2019s a cracking finish from a player who has made a great chance and scored a goal within a few minutes of coming on.<\/p>\n Spain\u2019s Alex Baena scores their side\u2019s second goal to level the scores.

England 2-2 Spain (Alex Baena 60)<\/p>\n The early evidence is that Alex Baena has come to play.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a016.15 EDT<\/p>\n 60 min: Great chance for Yamal!<\/p>\n Yamal nicks the ball just outside the area and plays a short pass into Baena. He returns the favour with a delicious backheel, only for Yamal to slide a simple chance wide of the far post.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 58 min: Double substitution for Spain<\/a> Luis de la Fuente goes back to his World Cup final attack: Mikel Oyarzabal and Alex Baena replace Ferran Torres and Nico Williams. I think Spain may have maded those changes after the penalty but it has only just been flagged on our TV coverage.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a016.10 EDT<\/p>\n 57 min Another good England<\/a> move culminates in a fierce shot from Quansah that hits Cucurella in the face and sends him flying. Crumbs, he wore one there.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a016.04 EDT<\/p>\n 56 min \u201cThis Spain<\/a> feels like a completely different side from the boa constrictor that suffocated their opponents at the World Cup,\u201d writes K\u00e1ri Tulinius. \u201cAs much as they\u2019re infinitely more entertaining, they also seem wobbly. I wonder if Lamine Yamal, back on brilliant form, unbalances them. A great individual alters the function of a team.\u201d<\/p>\n I suspect it\u2019s just the size of the contest, and what it means to both teams. I\u2019m still not sure England<\/a> can beat Spain in a World Cup or European Championship knockout game.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a016.05 EDT<\/p>\n 54 min: Kane hits the bar!<\/p>\n Harry Kane\u2019s standing foot gives way and he smacks the penalty against the crossbar! Replays show that he actually kicked it with both feet \u2013 his left slipped into the ball and his right spooned it against the bar.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a016.01 EDT<\/p>\n 53 min: Penalty to England!<\/p>\n The referee goes to the monitor and decides that Rodri did foul Bellingham. He didn\u2019t get the ball and the only debate is whether Bellingham initiated contact. Either way, Harry Kane has the chance to score his 87th goal for England<\/a>.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 51 min Now Bellingham goes over in the area after a challenge from Rodri. Again, no penalty. It\u2019s being checked by VAR.<\/p>\n The first one on Saka wasn\u2019t a foul by the way.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 49 min England appeal unsuccessfully for a penalty when Laporte lunges at Saka in the area. I\u2019d like to see that again.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 49 min The impressive Lewis-Skelly wins a corner for England<\/a>, who have started the second half on the front foot. Saka\u2019s oputswinger is headed away by Cubarsi, but England come again through Bellingham on the left. He hammers a cross that is headed over by Quansah, eight yards out. The cross was fractionally too high.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 47 min A word for James Trafford, who made a very good save to deny Torres when the score was 1-0. He\u2019ll be buzzing until the sun comes up if that ultimately leads to an England<\/a> win.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 46 min Dan Burn is on No changes on either side as England<\/a> begin the second half.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cOne thing that\u2019s occurred to me watching Spain<\/a> in various competitions is that they have a weakness in attack \u2013 they lack a truly world-class striker,\u201d writes Steve Bradfield. \u201cWould Fernando Torres or David Villa have missed the Ferran Torres chance? I don\u2019t think so.\u201d<\/p>\n In fairness, I\u2019m not sure Mikel Oyarzabal would have missed it.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cExcellent turnaround by England<\/a>, and they\u2019re in a strong position,\u201d writes Matt Dony. \u201cSo what\u2019s the plan now? Sub on a few defenders? Sit back, give the attackers some space, and hope for the best? Start passing exclusively sideways and backwards? What could go wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Slovenia 0-0 Scotland<\/p>\n \u201c\ufeffEvening Rob,\u201d says Simon McMahon. \u201cTommy T\u2019s England<\/a> mixing it with world champions Spain is all well and good, but the Seb Pocognoli Scotland era, that started with a superb 0-0 draw in Slovenia, makes it all irrelevant anyway. Zidane\u2019s France? Klopp\u2019s Germany? Forget it. I\u2019ve seen the future, and it\u2019s terrifying Oli McBurnie and Robbie Ure.\u201d<\/p>\n Share<\/a>Half time: England 2-1 Spain<\/p>\n Cracking entertainment at Wembley. Lamine Yamal scored inside two minutes after a mistake from Marc Guehi and, though England<\/a> needed a bit of fortune in defence, they responded with impressive conviction. Anthony Gordon\u2019s excellent equaliser was followed by Harry Kane\u2019s 86th goal for England. Eighty-sixth.<\/p>\n Spain conceded one goal in eight games at the World Cup; they\u2019ve conceded two in 45 minutes at Wembley.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a015.44 EDT<\/p>\n 45 min: Cucurella hits the post!<\/p>\n Cucurella slips Quansah on the left and mishits a chipped cross that beats Trafford and hits the face of the far post. I\u2019m 99.94% sure he didn\u2019t mean that.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a015.35 EDT<\/p>\n 44 min An outrageous run from Yamal leads to a deflected shot from Fabian Ruiz that spins a few yards wide. Yamal has been bewilderingly good.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 42 min Yamal spoons over from 15 yards after another successful high press. This is a really fun game. Maybe England<\/a> need to start going 1-0 down in knockout matches instead of taking the lead.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n O\u2019Reilly exchanged passes with Gordon on the left and chipped a flat cross towards the penalty spot. Kane guided a relatively soft header across goal, one that should have been cleared by Cucurella \u2013 but he got in a tangle and could only thigh the ball into the net. Kane\u2019s header was on target so it\u2019ll go down as his 479th goal for England<\/a>.<\/p>\n Harry Kane sends a header goalwards \u2026 Photograph: Tom Jenkins\/The GuardianThe ball comes off the thigh of Spain’s Marc Cucurella \u2026 Photograph: Tom Jenkins\/The GuardianAll eyes are on the ball the ball heads into the net for England’s second goal. Photograph: Tom Jenkins\/The GuardianShare<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a015.43 EDT<\/p>\n GOAL! England 2-1 Spain (Kane 40)<\/p>\n England have turned it round!<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 39 min: Just wide from Kane! Saka wins the ball high up the pitch and gives it to Kane on the edge of the D. He works a bit of space and whacks a trademark curler that flashes just wide of the post.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Nico Williams slipped just outside the England<\/a> area, and 10 seconds later it was 1-1. Anderson found Gordon, who opened the game up with a deft flick round the corner to Bellingham. He surged over the halfway line and played a perfectly weighted return pass to Gordon, who calmly slipped the ball past Simon from 20 yards. Fabulous goal.<\/p>\n Anthony Gordon celebrates after scoring England’s equaliser. Photograph: Tom Jenkins\/The GuardianShare<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a015.33 EDT<\/p>\n GOAL! England 1-1 Spain (Gordon 36)<\/p>\n England equalise with a ruthless counter-attack!<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 34 min: Olmo goes close Yamal finds Olmo on the right side of the area with a gorgeous flick. Olmo cracks a first-time shot on the turn that beats Trafford and bounces just wide of the post. Spain<\/a> haven\u2019t dominated the ball but they\u2019ve had all the chances.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 32 min Saka zips infield from the right and hits a long-range shot that is headed behind by Fabian Ruiz. England<\/a> are doing a lot of good things in the final third.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 29 min An England<\/a> corner leads to quarter-chances for Anderson, who shins a volley across goal, and Saka, who splashes over from 20 yards.<\/p>\n Share<\/a>27 min: Great chance for Torres!<\/p>\n Spain could be 3-0 up. Rodri cracks a terrific angled pass into Torres, who gallops straight between Anderson and Konsa to move through on goal. Trafford comes out and Torres slides a poor shot wide of the far post.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a015.18 EDT<\/p>\n 26 min After another good England<\/a> move, Quanash picks out Bellingham on the edge of the D. He runs at Rodri, then falls over looking for a foul. The referee doesn\u2019t buy it.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n 23 min Believe it or not, England<\/a> had 59% possession in the first quarter of the game. But they are yet to have an attempt at goal.<\/p>\n
