    France 1-0 Germany

    Good work from Joshua Kimmich to dig out a cross from the right but it's catching practice for Hugo Lloris.

    France 1-0 Germany

    Timo Werner's first act is to send a cross into nobody in the France box.

    Joachim Low considers taking him off.

    The two players coming on for Germany have pace and have shown they can provide an end product.

    Paul Pogba has won four fouls in this game - the last French player to win more in a game at the Euros was Franck Ribery in 2012 v Sweden (seven).

  6. SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 73 mins

    France 1-0 Germany

    Double change for Germany.

    Timo Werner and Leroy Sane enter the action, Serge Gnabry and Kai Havertz make way.

    Emre Can was stripped off too but has been told to sit back down.

    I know football's coming home and all that, but both of these teams are a lot better than England. More creative and ruthless in attack and, crucially, more defensively solid. I can't see us getting past either.

    Changes incoming for Germany.

    They'll have to wait though because Matthias Ginter has jarred his knee in an aerial challenge.

    France 1-0 Germany

    Presnel Kimpembe has been immense at the back for France tonight.

    If Paul Pogba is not in the nines then you guys need sorting out.

    France 1-0 Germany

    Another corner swung in by Joshua Kimmich, another which Germany are unable to convert,

    Antonio Rudiger's head loops into the air and it's an easy catch on the boundary for Hugo Lloris.

    Pavard was unconscious as he hit the ground - he face-planted the ground without using his hands to protect himself. Football needs to take head injuries more seriously.

    What is Pavard still doing on the pitch after being knocked out? Not a good advert for football.

    That denied us an absolute curling classic from Kylian Mbappe. It was right out of his playbook, paragraph one.

    France 1-0 Germany

    Oh, that is superb from Kylian Mbappe, standing up Joshua Kimmich then curling a delightful strike into the bottom corner via the post.

    Unfortunately, the assistant referee's flag goes up.

    But once again, what a ball it was from Paul Pogba.

    The baller is balling this evening.

    It does not look like a game where France are a goal up. It is a very even game.

    Germany need to be a little more clinical, get the ball in the box and give the forwards something to attack.

    Seen very little of Karim Benzema today, not sure I've mentioned him at all.

    The Real Madrid striker does get a sniff this time, cutting in from the left, but his thumping strike is blocked.

    Marc Quinn: This game has a Muller header at the back post all over it.

    David D: How is Sane not on for Havertz yet? Woeful performance tonight. (in before he scores).

    You'd be a harsh referee, Michael.

    Robin Gosen leapt well but Benjamin Pavard crouched down too.

    Meanwhile, Germany ping in another cross and the excellent Prensel Kimpembe has to scramble back again.

    Michael Reid: Has to be a red card for Gosens. He literally lead through the air with his knee. Dangerous play all day.

    But Dion, Benjamin Pavard is back on and can continue.

    For how long?

    Just under half an hour to go.
