    England 1-2 Spain

    Spain are all over England.

    Marcos Alonso's low shot from 25 yards out almost takes a nick off Isco in the box, but England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford keeps his concentration to gather the ball.

    Can Gareth Southgate do something that Spain might not like?

    England are trying to play like them but you can't play football like that against Spain - they have to try something else.

    The zip has gone out of the game after the Luke Shaw injury, which is understandable.

    Just ticking past the hour mark.

    Daryl Wing: Doesn't matter what happens in the game now. Got to feel for Luke Shaw. Huge loss.

    Steven McNamara: Not an England fan but gutted for Luke Shaw. He's still very young thankfully.

    England just can't put three passes together at the minute.

    What Spain do is they hustle you - and a few England players have been found wanting with their first touches.

    England 1-2 Spain

    This would have been a cracker - think France full-back Benjamin Pavard at the World Cup.

    Marcos Alonso's cross goes all the way to the far edge of the box towards Thiago Alcantara and the Bayern Munich man lets fly with an outside-of-the-boot drive which clips the roof of the net.

    Play was stopped for around seven minutes there.

    Luke Shaw is carefully lifted onto a stretcher and wheeled off the side of the pitch and down the tunnel.

    So sad to see.

    On comes Tottenham's Danny Rose in his place.

    Luke Shaw still hasn't moved.

    No replays being shown of the incident, tells you it could be a bad one.

    This is not good. Luke Shaw is down on the deck after a clash of heads.

    Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho doesn't look happy, sitting next to Nottingham Forest manager Aitor Karanka.

    Those two were at Real Madrid together.

    When England get the ball wide to Luke Shaw and Kieran Trippier, they have to get the ball straight into the box.

    Spain like to play high and, with Marcus Rashford's pace, sometimes it's good to mix it up with some long balls.

    Steve Moss: England lost 3 matches & won 4 at the World Cup. They were defeated whenever they were tested. They are being tested again tonight. For Southgate, this is still a work in progress.

    Edwin: How many English players can get in that Spanish eleven? It's not rocket science, England still a long way behind.

    I love how fickle England fans can be. Concede 2 against the team that won 3 tournaments on the bounce and it's misery and despair. Beat Panama and Sweden and it's coming home. We're playing football and doing better than the last 20 years combined. Get a grip.
