England 0-0 Spain (half time)

The nation expects apparently but Arsenal's tiny contingent of two, Saka and Rice, have been relatively quiet so far.

Rice did get clattered by Olmo, who went studs up into the midfielder's midriff, but aside from that there's been little to get the pulses racing.

England had one shot on target, when Phil Foden's miss-hit volley was collected by the keeper.

Saka, Rice and England were mostly on the backfoot, but defended well, especially Stones and Shaw.

Going forward, England had a tendency to run down cul-de-sacs, rather than letting the ball do the work.

Despite not really troubling Pickford in the England goal, Spain's pass-and-move look more likely to unlock a defence than the playground football style of their opponents.

Still, England have resilience and strength, so cannot yet be ruled out as a potential winners of a trophy that has been lifted by Denmark and Greece in the past, to name but two shock final victors. Perhaps it will be England this time.
