England are beginning to turn the screw now and Will Hughes checks inside before hitting a shot from the edge of the area which is superbly blocked by Domagoj Pavicic.

From the resulting corner, a hanging ball is attacked by Leicester's Liam Moore but the strapping defender's effort fails to hit the target. Good intentions though.

Nathan Redmond on his right foot... boom, but the winger's stinging shot is tipped over.

It's a wall of blue shirts the minute England, in their all-white strip, cross the halfway line. The young Lions are having to pass their way through the well-organised visitors. Luke Shaw appears their best chance of success.

We're asking for your future stars of football...

If he was at fault for the goal, Dave (see tweet below), Luke Shaw is doing his best to put it right - the Manchester United man playing a neat one-two with Will Hughes adjacent to the penalty area, before driving into the box and rasping a shot against the inside of the post.

After announcing the new proposals (18:04), Football Association chairman Greg Dyke has admitted the grassroots game in England "is in crisis".

Dyke, 67, told the BBC he wanted to invest £250m in new training facilities and improve English coaching standards.

However, his plan to add Premier League B teams into the Football League is in doubt after a report said the reaction from clubs was "not favourable".

"If you go to Germany or Holland we are miles behind in terms of facilities and the number of coaches," said Dyke.

"It is clear we have a real problem with pitches. Local authorities' budgets are being squeezed and most of the pitches are owned by them."

Luke Shaw is beginning to get forward down the left for England and he delivers a good cross which Niko Datkovic heads clear. Decent delivery, but a lack of bodies in the box.

Greg Dyke's FA England commission has also proposed an improvement in coaching.

It suggests that "all the FA's education work, from coach education through to referee development and safeguarding, needs to be brought together in a single department".

And it has set a target of more than tripling the number of Youth Award Level 3 coaches (from 800 to 3,000) and Advanced Youth Award holders (from 200 to 750).

Dyke will be on BBC Radio 5 live tonight from 20:00 to 21:00 BST tonight discussing the proposals.

Football Association chairman Greg Dyke has revealed the second England commission report, with special focus on grassroots football in a bid to produce more English talent.

The report has proposed that by 2020 there will be:

• Football hubs in 30 cities, increasing the number of top-quality artificial grass pitches (AGPs) in urban areas by 130% to more than 500

• Leading the way will be a pilot scheme in Sheffield, followed by Birmingham and Liverpool.

• A 50% increase in the total number of full-size, publicly accessible 3G AGPs across England, to over 1,000

• More than 150 new football-owned and managed football hubs to support the delivery of FA, County FA and professional club youth development and coach education programmes

• More than 50% of all mini-soccer and youth football matches - about 3,750 per week - being played on the best quality AGPs

Martin McHugh: , externalWhy aren't all U21 players playing in PL teams? This doesn't seem unreasonable...

Harry Kane is fouled 28 yards from goal, and steps up to take the free-kick himself - but it comes to nothing as he balloons a poor effort over the bar.

That was all too easy for Croatia, who look composed on the ball and, without truly dominating possession, appear to have England's number. So far, at least.

Croatia stun England by taking the lead - a corner coming in from the left and it is flicked on by Niko Datkovic towards the back stick where Marko Livaja is on hand to nod home unmarked from six yards out.

Nathan Redmond gets the crowd off their feet with a run down the right before cutting inside and finding Tom Carroll, whose chip towards lone frontman Harry Kane is read by the Croatia goalkeeper and the danger passes.
