    Game over.

    Marco Reus scores his first international goal since 11 June 2019 from Timo Werner's pass.

  2. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 20:19 British Summer Time 5 September 2021

    Spain 2-0 Georgia

    Jose Gaya volleys in for Spain. He thinks it's his second and Spain's third... but it's disallowed for handball.

    Brazil 0-0 Argentina

    The Brazil players remain out on the pitch talking to the officials as this frankly bizarre issue gets sorted out.

    I'm amazed this game was allowed to start if there was a chance this could happen.

    Switzerland 0-0 Italy

    No breakthrough yet in this one.

    Domenico Berardi has forced two saves from Yann Sommer, with Switzerland yet to have a shot.

    And now the Argentina players are heading back down the tunnel!

    What a carry on!

    Germany 2-0 Armenia

    Almost a third but Leroy Sane hits the crossbar from outside the box.

    Brazil 0-0 Argentina

    It seems like it could be Brazilian health officials who were not happy with the four Argentina players who had been in the UK prior to arrival here being allowed to be involved tonight, instead of isolating.

    GOAL - Spain 2-0 Georgiapublished at 20:11 British Summer Time 5 September 2021

    Carlos Soler (25 mins)

    Two caps, two goals for Carlos Soler.

    The 24-year-old Valencia midfielder scored against Sweden and again tonight. He sweeps home from Marcos Llorente's cross.

    Brazil 0-0 Argentina

    Now Argentina and Brazil players run over to get involved in the bickering, apparently started by some members of the media who are allowed to be pitchside.

    Hopefully we get to see an actual football match sometime soon.

    San Marino 0-3 Poland

    Robert Lewandowski is up to 72 goals for Poland now. He's got his second and Poland lead 3-0 within 21 minutes.

    That double moves him up from joint-18th to joint-14th on the all-time international top scorers.

  13. Postpublished at 20:10 British Summer Time 5 September 2021

    Brazil 0-0 Argentina

    There's a lot of bickering pitchside - not quite sure who is involved but whatever it is it has caused a stop in play.

  14. Postpublished at 20:08 British Summer Time 5 September 2021

    Brazil 0-0 Argentina

    Not much to report in Sao Paulo so far. Eder Militão is caught late by Cristian Romero and that prompts some angry exchanges. An early bit of needle in this game between two great rivals.

  15. Postpublished at 20:06 British Summer Time 5 September 2021

    San Marino 0-2 Poland

    Karol Swiderski has just scored Poland's second against San Marino.

    Romania 2-0 Liechtenstein

    Cristian Manea has doubled Romania's lead against minnows Liechtenstein.

    Serge Gnabry (15 mins)

    Serge Gnabry gets his second of the game within 15 minutes. This could be a long night for Armenia.

    This one is a similar position to his opener but a low drive instead of a volley.

    Alin Tosca has given the Romanians the lead against minnows Liechtenstein.

  19. KICK-OFFpublished at 20:03 British Summer Time 5 September 2021

    Brazil 0-0 Argentina

    Neymar grabs and hugs his PSG team-mate Angel di Maria before the players head out onto the pitch.

    All smiles at the moment, will it still be that way after 90 minutes?

    We're under way.

    Jose Gaya (14 mins)

    Spain are looking to bounce back from their defeat by Sweden - and they lead through Jose Gaya's goal.

    The defender hammered in from just outside the box via a big deflection.
