    FI_BinBagJez: Might as well go straight to penalties. No one has any intention of scoring

    Sho: You have to give Enrique a lot of credit for his bravery. Choosing Garcia at CB today, playing Alonso at LB in a back 4, sticking with Gavi. He's certainly not one to choose the big name, believes in a system.

    Jonathan Spencer: Kimpembe will be the reason why Spain will win this game

  3. HALF-TIMEpublished at 20:32 British Summer Time 10 October 2021

    Spain 0-0 France

    Two good teams playing good football doesn't always mean a great game.

    Goalless at the break.

    Two minutes added on.

    If you love passing, this is the game for you. Only three shots though.

  6. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 42 mins

    Spain 0-0 France

    Probably not what Manchester United fans want to see.

    He's able to walk off the pitch, which is good, but Raphael Varane is replaced by Dayot Upamecano.

    France defender Raphael Varane goes down and the medical staff are on. He seemed to hurt himself while cutting out a pass. Over-stretched maybe.

    Spain have a corner which Pablo Sarabia takes but it's an easy catch from Hugo Lloris.

    A few of you on text and Twitter saying this game needs a goal. You're right.

    If this had worked, it would have been brilliant, but Paul Pogba's 30-yard high ball into Antoine Griezmann is caught by Unai Simon.

    Good play by Theo Hernandez to stop Ferran Torres' run down the wing.

    Hernandez scored France's last-minute winner against Belgium in the semi. Torres scored both of Spain's goals against Italy.

    Marcos Alonso doesn't think it's too far out to shoot. He tries to catch Hugo Lloris out at his near post but drags it just wide. It was at least 30 yards out.

    Ferran Torres is causing France plenty of problems. He's fouled by Aurelien Tchouameni. Free-kick maybe just too far out to shoot.

    Paul Pogba wins the ball back for France and plays it to Antoine Griezmann with a nice pass.

    Now it's France who go backwards, to goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.

    Spain try to get something going with a passing move, Gavi is involved, but France end up driving them backwards.

    There was a VAR check for a possible France penalty which nobody really seemed to claim for. Not given anyway.

    Five touches now for Kylian Mbappe. He tries to punish Spain on the counter-attack but Aymeric Laporte beats him in a one-on-one battle.

    Kylian Mbappe has only touched the ball four times. I've barely seen him.

    Presnel Kimpembe has had a couple of shaky moments against Ferran Torres so far.

    He cuts out Torres' cross but then mis-controls it back to the Spain player. Kimpembe tackles him in the end and concedes a corner.

    The corner is hacked away.

    High quality but not high action is how I would describe the opening 24 minutes.

    Still only the one (weak) shot.
