Defoe looking more like Johnny Wilkinson with his shot over the bar. Barton comes on eventually.
- 77'
Downing with the free kick. Barry wastes possession and Spain charge out.
- 76'
Richards charges down the right and loses out to Iniesta. He's looked spritely since his arrival and wins a foul.
- 73'
Fabregas coming for Villa. Phil Neville coming off and Downing comes on. Barry will play left back.
- 72'
Crouch conceded another foul while challenging for the ball. Where is Joey Barton??
- 71'
Defoe playing up front and England have switched to a 4-4-2, but still don't look like scoring.
- 70'
Lampard swings in a cross, Casillas makes the punch and it falls to Carrick outside the box, he fires well wide though.
- 69'
Defoe coming on for Wright-Phillips.
- 69'
Crouch poleaxed in the box between Puyol and Pablo. No free kick and the big man is down. England have a lot to do if they're going to score from this.
- 67'
Lampard gives the ball away again, and Villa races through but wastes the chance with a poor final ball. Where is Barton???
- 66'
Defoe getting ready to come on.
- 65'
Subs. Carragher on for Woodgate and Micah Richards on for Gary Neville. Just gone a goal down and he's just bought on two defenders...
- 64'
Good reverse ball as Dyer look to level things, but Pablo gets there again. Cross comes in and Phil Neville blasts the ball wide.
- 62'
GOAL. And what a goal. Cross comes in and Silva can't get there. Ferdinand gets a touch, but it falls to Iniesta who hammers it into the top corner. Foster had no chance and that was great finish from the youngster.
- 61'
England passing well but getting nowhere. Aside from the shot by Villa, Spain haven't done much either. Subs are being prepared, and they are sorely needed.
- 58'
Spain force a corner, Xavi swings it in. But Lampard clears well. Gary Neville tries to break and Crouch looks to chase Casillas down. England haven't been troubling the Spanish defence.
- 57'
Villa fires a shot in from just outside the box, Comfortable save for Foster but the ball was swerving and the Watford keeper did well.
- 56'
Long ball tactics now from England, but it's not working. Through ball to Wright-Phillips, he shold have made it through but chooses to hold the ball up.
- 55'
Iniesta comes on for Angulo as Spain freshen their side up.
- 55'
Gary Neville has a shot wide after good link up play between Wright-Phillips and Dyer. Must be desperate if England are relying on their veteran right-back to score.
- 54'

- 53'
Barry fouled 35 yards out. Lampard tries to break through, but is held up. Dyer tumbles, but Spain break and Gary Neville forced to tidy up.
- 52'
Crouch caught offside. Terrible play from the striker. He should be doing better. Xavi shows great control and retains possession.
- 51'
Crouch penalised again for a foul in the air. Torres looking dangerous and Silva held up by Neville. Capdevilla does his best 'dying swan' impression after running onto a shot, ref isn't fooled though.
- 50'

- 48'
Barry loses out. Angulo and Torres combine, Dyer breaks and is hauled back by Albelda.

- 47'
Casillas blasts the ball out, Dyer and Wright-Phillips combine but Pablo makes the crucial block. The corner comes in and falls to Gareth Barry who shoots high and wide.
- 46'
Things have to get better for England in this half, it surely can't be as bad as the last one. Torres immediately swings in a cross, Villa can't reach it and Foster was no-where.
- 45'
Gerrard comes off for Barry and Torres coming on for Morientes in the second half as Spain kick off.
- 45'
Half time whistle goes. Pretty poor half by all standards. Let's hope the next half is better.
- 44'
Morientes flicks it on, Villa caught just offside. He's looked like the best player on the pitch, but there hasn't been much competition.
- 43'
Neville penalised for a foul throw. Really poor play, and Spain waste it. The crowd are getting restless and you can't blame them. Foster forced to use his head to clear after a pass back.
- 43'
Silva gets free down the left and turns a cross back, Wright-Phillips loses out trying to break and Spain are on the attack again.

- 40'
Puyol hits it high, Ferdinand does well under pressure from Villa.
- 39'
Villa loses out to Carrick. Wright-Phillips gets his foot on the ball and he sticks at a tackle, releases Neville, who wastes the cross.
- 39'
Great pass by Gerrard. Crouch is there, tees it up but hits it wide. It never looked like going in and Dyer was free in the centre.
- 37'
Barry, Barton and Parker sitting on the bench. Would be good to see them, as the current crop aren't doing much. Lampard loses possession again.
- 36'
England are doing nothing to stop their critics from talking so far. Lampard and Gerrard seem incompatible.
- 35'
Xavi sets up Angulo who fires a shot wide. Foster wasn't troubled but still dived.
- 35'
Lampard messing about with it, but no penetration at all. Wright-Phillips and Dyer seem to have disappeared and Crouch is doing his usual juggling act whenever the ball comes in.
- 33'
Poor ball from Xavi, and Ramos overruns it, out for a throw. Ferdinand tidies up, the defenders are definately having the best of it so far.
- 33'
Capdevilla gets the cross in, but Ferdinand is there to clear. Neither side have had many chances on goal so far, aside from the Morientes chance.
- 31'
Crouch penalised again for a long, deep cross. He's climbing all over the defender which he shouldn't need to do.

No foul on Lampard in the middle, but Xavi gives the ball away. The break is on and Dyer uses his pace to get away, Pablo comes across and concedes the corner.

- 23'
High ball into the box, Crouch is penalised for holding as Ramos tangles with him in the area.
- 22'
Dyer gets away and releases Wright-Phillips who can't beat Capdevilla.
- 21'
Wright-Phillips gives the ball away, Villa gets the ball and nutmegs Woodgate. No foul given.
- 21'
Still hard to believe how Morientes didn't put the ball in the net having been through on goal. Spain won't get a better chance than that.
- 20'
Carrick shows he's not neglecting his defensive duties as he steals the ball from Albelda.
- 19'
Wright-Phillips has a lot of room to work with on the right, but his cross is awful.
- 18'
England looking to regroup but having trouble getting it out of their own half. That was the clearest chance of the game so far.
- 17'
Spain should be one up after that, great build up play, followed by a dreadful finish.
- 17'
Horrible Morientes miss. Great reverse ball from Villa, he waits for the slide tackle, holds off and then blasts the ball 10 yards over the bar. Terrible miss, from a great chance.
- 16'
Wright-Phillips overruns the ball and slides in on Puyol, the Spaniard is down injured.

Crouch finding space up front, chests it down well and England begin to spread the play. Carrick pulling the strings in the middle, Gary Neville nearly finds a good Dyer run.
- 13'
Lampard is sitting in the middle, leaving Ramos free on the right. England have no left sided player and Spain look to have a lot of room down the right side.
- 13'
Ramos smashes a cross in high, Foster comes confidently and claims the ball well.
- 12'
Wright-Phillips out wide, looks to run at Capdevilla, but he leaves the ball behind and it runs out for a throw.

- 11'
Wright-Phillips handles, Puyol leaps to head above Crouch- how did he manage to jump that high?
- 10'
Carrick caught in possession. Angulo tries to cross, but Neville blocks it well and breaks. Wright-Phillips finds space on the right and swings a cross over, just too far for Crouch to get on the end of.
- 9'
Villa finds space and runs straight at Ferdinand, who is backing off. He fires a shot off, but it hits the side netting and Foster doesn't move. Probably a corner, but not given.
