Aurelien Tchouameni is back on but loses the ball to Ferran Torres. A France defender clears Torres' cross though.

A lovely first touch by Aurelien Tchouameni in midfield and Spain's Rodri chops him down.

The physios are on to treat the France player.

Decent atmosphere in Milan with both countries well represented in the stands. The San Siro isn't full because of Covid regulations.

John Dunthorne: Difference with England, passing is faster and with an offensive aim by these 2 teams.

Ferran Torres has been very involved so far with Spain's attacks. The Manchester City player is on the right wing rather than in the centre. That could change though.

Nice feet from Gavi but loses the ball in the box.

That snatch-shot from Pablo Sarabia is the first official effort from either side.

Spain have had 55% possession.

Two good teams here.

I know people moan about the Nations League but this is a lot more entertaining than watching France v Kazakhstan and Spain v Georgia in qualifying.

Spain have their first chance now. Ferran Torres plays a lovely reverse ball into the path of Pablo Sarabia but he snatches at his shot and it rolls to Hugo Lloris.

It was a lovely Paul Pogba through ball for that Karim Benzema half-chance early on. Don't think I gave him the credit at the time.

The corner comes to nothing.

A beautiful passing move by France, involving most of their attackers, ends in a cross put behind.

Les Bleus are on top, no doubt.

Early chance for France. Karim Benzema runs in behind the defence and goes round Unai Simon.

He goes too wide though to shoot and Cesar Azpilicueta cuts out his pass to Kylian Mbappe.

It's a corner, which comes to nothing.

Now it's Spain spraying the ball around including in front of their goal which would have 'yer da' shouting at the TV.

France are knocking the ball around nicely in the early stages. Player for player, they really should be the best team in the world.

We've already had more texts on #bbcfootball than we did for the whole third-place play-off earlier...

John McEnerney: Spain are a well drilled side & should be a handful for the French but my head tells me France to win 2-1

Spain teenager Gavi is probably lucky to avoid a booking for a mistimed sliding tackle on Aurelien Tchouameni.

Gordon R: I think everyone is underestimating how good Spain really are. This will be tight.
