Wayne Rooney is regressing in both position on the field and now quality. His touch has deserted him. He's not alone in that respect though as this performance lurches from desperation to desolation...

There's ambition, and then there's trying to climb Everest in your sandals and a t-shirt.

Harry Kane shoots from the free-kick, at least 35 yards out, and it flies nearly as many yards wide.

Woeful. 

Iceland captain Aron Gunnarsson is in the book for lamping Dele Alli. Nasty tackle that.

When England get the ball wide the quality then into the area is very poor. They are not doing enough.

There is still the best part of half an hour left but England are faced with a jigsaw that they don't look like solving. Can anyone fax the instructions to Roy?

Some of this Icelandic defending is absolutely tremendous. Do you remember that event in Gladiators where you had to run through Wolf, Cobra, Shadow and then Saracen, all swinging various foam weapons?

Was it called Gauntlet? That's basically what England's attackers are trying to do now.

Chance! Daniel Sturridge buys himself a yard of space on the right and engineers a low cross, bobbly one and Dele Alli shins it well over the top. 

Russ Hyde: Do England even believe they can score? This is miserable. Body language says everything! 

David Simpson: Please England, show some passion. Stop looking like scared rabbits in headlights. 

Jamie Vardy is on for Raheem Sterling.

Roy Hodgson looks at his watch. No answers there Roy!

This game started so brightly for England, it's going downhill faster than a Guy Martin speed record attempt.

In the last two forays forward, England players have had two or three touches before releasing the ball, which gives Iceland time to get back. England have got to pop it one or two touch.

Roy Hodgson is standing hands in pockets in his technical area. He finds himself in a situation of increasing desperation here.

Almost three! Another set-piece is defended terribly, it's headed back in and Ragnar Sigurdsson has an overhead kick, just seven yards out and Joe Hart beats it clear!

England have come out with the urgency of a Post Office queue. It's slipping away.

A chance for Raheem Sterling to run his man but he comes inside and goes into traffic. M6 northbound circa Congleton.

Loses it, as does Daniel Sturridge a minute later. 

Any ideas? No Plan B in evidence just yet. 

Harry Kane puts a free-kick in from wide left, it's headed out and when the cross comes back in Kane leaps superbly but can only head straight at Hannes Thor Halldorsson.

England have to come up with something different. The Icelandic defence are organised. They are not fazed or flustered by any England changes.

England defend a long throw well. They have 40 minutes to save their tournament and probably their manager's job.

Daniel Sturridge beats his man on the corner of the penalty area but can only find Wayne Rooney, and his cross is overcooked. Sturridge is then booked for a rash tackle. A time for cool heads.
