  • France-England

    87’ England win a corner, but it's cleared and France break. Ribery slips it through to Cisse who is away1 He knocks it past Ashley Cole and beats him for pace... Stabbed wide of the near post! England are looking really out of sorts now, whereas France look happy to keep on playing.

  • Scotland-Croatia

    90+1’ Scotland howl for a handball off Prancjic after they'd broken down the right, Rae swinging the cross in. A yellow is shown too for something in the build-up.

  • Scotland-Croatia

    90’ Late sub for Scotland as Fletcher limps off, worryingly for Manchester United, Graham Alexander on in his place.

    81’ Anelka comes off with ten minutes to go, and is replaced by Djibril Cisse, who gets a mixed reception from the French fans to say the least!

  • Scotland-Croatia

    83’ Break for Scotland as it's played wide to Boyd who's in and has a crack but saved by the keeper, corner Scotland.

  • France-England

    74’ Les Bleus are liftes by that, as Toulalan brings the play forward and passes it to Anelka, who knocks it back for RIBERY... Dragged wide of the far post! There has been no spark about england at all in this half. How quick will the England fans be to turn on their new foreign head honcho if it stays like this?

    72’ Boyd on for Miller.

  • Scotland-Croatia

    70’ Anderson on for Caldwell.

  • France-England

    63’ Just over an hour into the match, and David Beckham's 100th England appearance comes to an end, as he is somewhat prophetically replaced by David Bentley. Is that the last we will see of him? Wes Brown also comes off for Glen Johnson, while France bring off David Trezeguet for Sidney Govou.

  • Scotland-Croatia

    67’ Great pass in for Budan who is clear of the Scotland defence and hammers the shot on goal but a great save by Gordon! Corner...

  • Scotland-Croatia

    63’ Srna cannot continue after the Naysmith foul and is taken off for Leko.

  • France-England

    56’ France indeed break from a move that began with a Thuram challenge. Ashley Cole is way out of position and Ribery tries to feed Clerc... Lescott intercepts the pass. France look lethal on the counter attack.

  • Scotland-Croatia

    59’ Naysmith booked for sliding in late on Srna about 25 yards out. Poor tackle.

  • Scotland-Croatia

    58’ A gaggle of subs with Budan and - after his extended kidney nightmare - Ivan Klasnic.

  • Scotland-Croatia

    57’ Srna with the corner, hit away clear and the shot comes in from Krancjar and Gordon sees it late after a deflection but he parries it away and Croatia must score but superb defending by Gary Caldwell to bicycle-kick it clear on the line with Olic flying in to finish!

  • France-England

    50’ Malouda brings the ball towards goal. Hargreaves allows him the time to shoot and HE DOES... JUST WIDE OF THE POST!! James was at full stretch, but he would not have got there in time! A let-off for England.

  • Scotland-Croatia

    55’ Petric with a superb touch to skin McManus who brings him down and sees yellow. Free kick on the edge of the D...

  • Scotland-Croatia

    51’ Swung to the edge of the six yard box and MILLER WITH THE HEADER but off the line by Pranjic on the post.

  • Scotland-Croatia

    45’ Half-time sub for Scotland as Steven Fletcher comes off for Gavin Rae; also Croatia make a change with Vukojevic on for Kovac.

    45’ Niko Kovac is booked after the whistle as, just as the half was finishing, he left his foot in on Scott Brown, who needs treatment to a leg injury.

    43’ Brown fouls on the edge of the box after Hutton gives it away...

  • France-England

    39’ 100th cap or not, Beckham goes into the book for pulling Ribery's shirt after hounding him for about 40 yards!

  • France-England

    31’ GOAL!! Ribery strokes it into the bottom corner, cool as you like! He then whips off his shirt to reveal a message saying 'To my friend Hichan and Monsieur Gilardi'. Unbelievably, he is booked for paying tribute to a man who died last night, yet David James is still on the pitch!

  • France-England

    30’ England have been bossing the game of late, but France have a throw in the final third. Terry heads it clear but France build again and Clerc's ball feeds ANELKA WHO IS TRIPPED BY JAMES... PENALTY!! James stays on the pitch though! Ribery will take it...

  • Scotland-Croatia

    30’ Miller latches onto a loose ball on the left after Kovac slips making the clearance and Simunic closes him down but the shot takes a touch off his leg and goes past Pletikosa for 1-1!

  • France-England

    24’ The free kick comes in from the left and Ferdinand is free at the far post. He nods it back across goal for GERRARD... The diving header was always rising! While none of them were clear opportunities, Gerrard has missed three in about five minutes.

    22’ The ball is played through to Olic who is through but too wide and the shot is low and past Gordon but it's flat and easily cleared.

  • France-England

    15’ Joe Cole fires a ball across goal and Coupet palms it away but INTO THE PATH OF BECKHAM... Thuram clears before he can get there!

  • Scotland-Croatia

    10’ Throw in to Croatia, sent to Krancjar who turns and digs out a shot AND IT'S GONE IN! What on earth happened there? Gordon fell to his knees as a quite straightforward shot flew over his head and into the back of the net!

  • France-England

    8’ Ribery delivers a free kick into the box from deep on the left, and ANELKA IS FREE... Headed wide! The marking by England was sloppy there.

  • Scotland-Croatia

    1’ Match underway at Hampden.

  • France-England

    _’ The anthems are being sung now, with Beckham typically the most vocal. So do you think Beckham deserves to start, or do you thing this pick is a rare sign of emotion from Signor Capello? E-mail tmabert@eurosport.com with your thoughts on that or anything other matter during the match.

  • England U21-Poland U-21

    85’ Pawlowski on the left, one-on-one with Mancienne again and he beats him again before firing a low drive across Heaton that the Manchester United trainee gets down to hold onto! Warning for England, as Poland can still snatch this.

    80’ Rzezniczak with a crude challenge on Johnson, yellow card.

    76’ POLAND SUB: Janczyk off for Lewandowski, Jarka on for Kuklis.

  • England U21-Poland U-21

    67’ Derbyshire booked for a challenge far less dangerous or cynical than what we have already seen tonight.

  • England U21-Poland U-21

    66’ ENGLAND SUB: Campbell also comes on, the Hull striker replacing Jerome.

  • England U21-Poland U-21

  • England U21-Poland U-21

  • England U21-Poland U-21

    46’ Second half underway, England winning a corner which is punched clear... England come again though, header over the top from Shawcross sends Onuoha who is still up and he wins a corner.

  • England U21-Poland U-21

    45’ Jerome flicks it on and MOORE IS IN BUT TYTON RUSHES OUT TO BRAVELY BLOCK AND SPILLS IT BUT HACKED CLEAR!! Looked like a high foot from Moore and indeed the free kick is given.

  • England U21-Poland U-21

    41’ England with a spell of pressure, first Jerome almost getting clean through, being forced wide and cutting the ball back only for Poland to clear, the second ball falling to O'Hara who has a pop but sends it over.

    31’ Wilk booked for a needless foul on Gardner.

  • England U21-Poland U-21

    22’ Great break by Majewski, who spreads the ball wide excellently for Pawlowski who takes Mancienne out with a brilliant first touch and curls a shot in but held by Hart, who takes a knock from Kuklis and the ref does well to get between them before it kicks off.

  • England U21-Poland U-21

    5’ Gardner to take then... he drills it low at the keeper who fumbles the shot AND MOORE MUST FINISH BUT THE KEEPER TYTON WITH A GREAT SECOND SAVE! He made the mistake initially but more than compensated, corner England.

  • England U21-Poland U-21

    4’ Great run by Johnson, cutting in from the left and weaving towards the box and he gets chopped down by Polczak just on the edge of the area for a free kick...
