Excellent start from England this, Harry Kane feeding the run of Raheem Sterling but the ball gets tangled up under the Man City winger's feet and Duje Caleta-Car can recover to make a block.

Jordan Pickford is constantly screaming to communicate with his back four. The crowd noise is absolutely electric.

England look really effective on the counter-attack.

That will give England plenty of encouragement.

BUT they need to take the chances that come their way.

Inches away from the dream start for England!

Phil Foden showcases his talents early on, cutting in onto his favoured left peg from the right-hand side and curling an almost perfect finish which rattles the foot of the far post.

The Croatia keeper was beaten but Harry Kane cannot stretch enough to convert the rebound.

I think the ball hit him so he's going to re-take it but what Modric is really upset with is that's where he comes to life. He's trying to make something happen and he'd rather have had that situation than where he is right now.

What a first touch that is...

...from the Italian ref Daniele Orsato.

Drop ball.

Luka Modric does. not. like. that.

Still booing from a large number of England fans as they take the knee before kick-off but the jeers were also met with a response of loud and prolonged applause. Mixed reaction.

It's going to be interesting to see how they deal with the pressures today this young England side. They're up against a team that knows how to do it, a team that's been together a long period of time. There's a couple of changes in there but they will confident coming into this game.

Fifa game shadow already starting to annoy the viewers, including myself.

Who's to blame for forgetting to switch it off? Can we restart?

Mason Mount is an incredible talented boy and has an amazing work ethic. But what sets him out and makes him different is his intelligence. He wants to learn at all times.

Things we are seeing him do now, there's just something about him that's so complete to manage and I can see why Gareth will rely on him as much as anyone else in this tournament.

He's sound, he's humble but he's tough. He bounces back from criticism even stronger and this season he's been amazing.

Anthems o'clock.

The fans should know that the players and the manager have come out multiple times now and told you what the reasons are behind taking the knee. It's not political. Put that aside now and come and support the boys. This is the start of the tournament. We all wat England to do well. Support them and applaud them.
