    That was a great ball by Lallana, a wonderfully weighted pass. Reina slipped while trying to make himself big.

    More scrambled than everyone's favourite way of cooking their morning eggs. 

    Home keeper Alan Mannus pushes out an angled shot into his six-yard box, leaving a couple of green shirts and one red-and-white checked shirt diving onto the loose ball.

    And it is Mario Mandzukic - the one Croatian - who reacts quickest to poke in the opener.

    Adam Lallana coolly slots home from the spot and England lead. Great start after some early Spain pressure.

  4. PENALTY TO ENGLANDpublished at 20:08

    England 0-0 Spain

    John Stones heads away the free-kick and England swiftly go up the other end of the pitch as Adam Lallana plays a great ball for Jamie Vardy. He's through on goal and brought down by Pepe Reina. Penalty England...

    Jamie Vardy looked to clear the ball but he is very, very fortunate. It's a minimum yellow card. He knew exactly what he was doing with the follow through

    England 0-0 Spain

    Spain usually line up with a back four but they've opted for a three-man defence tonight. Judging by the opening few minutes, they may not be in for the busiest of nights. Spain have had pretty much all of the ball at the moment and have an early free-kick, midway inside the England half, as Jamie Vardy scythes down Cesar Azpilicueta.

    Route one. Josh Magennis channels his inner Rory Delap, flinging in a long throw which is flicked on at the near post. Croatia partially clear, but only to Paddy McNair. The Sunderland midfielder drills a low shot inches past the right-hand post.

    Northern Ireland 0-0 Croatia

    Northern Ireland have blasted out of the blocks quicker than Usain Bolt. A period of pressure by the men decked out in all green ends with Chris Brunt shanking a 20-yard volley into Row Z.

    England 0-0 Spain

    Spain pressing from the outset and embark on the game's first attack as Dani Carvajal floats a cross towards the far post for David Silva. It hangs in the air, allowing Joe Hart to come off his line and claim pretty comfortably.

    Northern Ireland 0-0 Croatia

    Josh Magennis is causing more of a nuisance than a drunk at closing time. The Northern Ireland winger motors down the right flank, drilling in a low cross that is hacked out by a Croatian boot.

    Spain get things under way at Wembley.

    We're also up and running at Windsor Park for Northern Ireland's game against Croatia.

    The Irish FA said earlier that tonight's game is a sell-out, but Windsor Park is not brimming yet after that earlier rush-hour traffic hell in Belfast.

    Quite a few Croatians - decked out in eye-catching checkerboard of course - belt out their anthem.

    Three minutes of God Save the Queen later and it is almost kick-off time.

    It's a sell-out tonight but there's a few empty seats as the two teams walk out onto the Wembley pitch. It could well be that a few fans are polishing off a last-minute pie.

  17. After the Lord Mayor's show?published at 19:53 Greenwich Mean Time 15 November 2016

    Wembley is looking pretty sparsely populated just 10 minutes before England kick-off against Spain, which does have a feel of after the Lord Mayor's Show following the World Cup qualifier win against Scotland.

    Gareth Southgate will not want any lowering of standards as there is still a lot riding on a game against opponents of this stature for him and his players.

    On FA chairman Greg Clarke thanking Gareth Southgate for his efforts in the match programme.

    I read that as 'you're on your way son'. The way it is worded is not a vote of confidence. I wouldn't be saying you have done a fantastic job and appreciate what you have done and then give you a full contract tomorrow. The way it is worded seems ridiculous. It smacks of idiocy to put that in the programme.

  19. Get involved #bbcfootballpublished at 19:50 Greenwich Mean Time 15 November 2016

    Plenty of support from within football for Gareth Southgate, it seems. Barney Slavin isn't convinced...

    Barney Slavin: "So after one draw and two crushing victories against Malta and Scotland, Gareth Southgate is the chosen one?! Happy Einsteins."
