We keep hearing about these youngster's that they don't fear anything. Well now is the time to go and show these 40,000 and the millions at home and give us something to shout about again.

The overwhelming response to a knee being taken by both sides is positive.

This little game of football in north-west London is under way.

Good luck everyone.

Come here England. There's one thing I want you to do for me. Win. Win!

Sash: Nerves

Charlie: Hope everyone is wearing their lucky pants!

We really need to get together before these things and practice syncing up for the anthem.

Still, goosebumps.

Inevitable (but still sad to hear) boos for the German national anthem.

Fantastic atmosphere inside Wembley as the teams coming out. Thunderous roars and plenty of Germany fans in this 40,000 crowd adding colour.

It's not full. But it feels it.

I want us to play on the front foot. I want is to be brave. I want us to come out and excite this crowd. They haven't quite clicked yet going forward and that has to change and what better time for that to change than now.

The players are in the tunnel. We're almost on, people. Take a breath.

England v Germany. For a place in the last eight of Euro 2020.

Southgate you're the one?

Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 Live

Since Gareth Southgate has come to the squad he has been a revelation. He's been excellent, the way he speaks, the way he handles himself. He has had to discipline players but he doesn't hold it against them, he gives everyone another chance.

You can that see that in the group, in the way that they play. But I think Southgate is a class act and he doesn't want the players to make it about him because he's not that sort of person.

Because Germany are so brave and they do commit men forward, that inevitably means they leave space in behind and they do play a high line. They've conceded five goals already and that's because they over commit and leave spaces in behind their wing-backs and that's what our players are going to have to exploit today. They play a high line and aren't blessed with pace so there will be opportunities for England if they are brave and get men forward.

TallTwitcher: Football’s Coming Home! I still suffer heartache after the knockouts of 1990, 1996 & 2010. Today is the day we rewrite history.

Not much for Saka to live up to then, eh?

Chris Waddle
Ex-England winger on BBC Radio 5 Live

Saka is fearless at the moment, he hasn't got time to think what it is all about, he just goes out and plays his game. I can only relate that to 1990 with Gazza.

Gonna be a memory of a lifetime for this young lad. It was Italia 90 for me. I hope yours is better, big man.

England looked really calm and relaxed. When I was watching them close up, the players are just treating it like another game by the looks of it.

But the atmosphere is electric behind me, the fans are getting closer and closer, you can hear it! Its getting good now!
