    Bellingham and Rice with Foden Sterling Grealish in a fluid advanced 3 and Kane up top. Trent at right back. Let's have fun and play some good football.

    Should do better.

    A good opening for Gianluca Scamacca inside the area, but he fires miles over from the angle.

    Not negative Max, just not feeling this England team this evening and we're round the corner from the World Cup.

    Is there an identity, a style of play? Does Gareth Southgate know his best XI?

    Oooh, that's much better from Mason Mount.

    The Chelsea man cuts in from the left and hammers a drive at goal, but Gianluigi Donnarumma is equal to it.

    Here's Mason Mount involved again, picking out Jack Grealish at the far post but the Man City player's cutback is cleared by a blue shirt.

    Gareth Southgate is not happy with some of the decisions that England aren’t getting. He’s been speaking to the fourth official. There have been a few free kicks that looked like they should have been given.

    RacingWhat: Biggest issue facing Southgate is to play with more pace, stop playing sideways and backwards so much and go for the kill when we are on top

    Yogi Collins: I am 40 and can't think of a single English player in my time that had such a magical 1st touch as Grealish. The ball is just glued to his foot. His movement is just smooth. Build a team around him and see if he can have an impact like Scholes, Gerrard, Waddle, Gazza.

    Fikayo Tomori has been a bit shaky at the back for England.

    A mis-cued clearance early on and now he misses a header which allows Gianluca Scamacca to pick up the ball, but Harry Maguire is across to tidy up.

    Got nothing against Mason Mount, he's an OK player, but I just feel he should be offering a bit more in an England shirt.

    There's plenty waiting behind him if he's not up to the job.

    Arjun Singh: Shamoon, are you a Chelsea fan by any chance? The hate being directed at Mount is unreal… he’s been great so far, just unlucky. Great pressing, turns and passes out of the press.

    MarkF1: Shamoon, you’re not a Mason Mount fan are you? A couple of misplaced passes and he’s on the edge of losing his space. If it wasn’t for a world-class save he’d have a goal in the bag and England would be 1-0 up.

    And then Jack Grealish goes into the referee's book for a lunge on Federico Gatti.

    McMatt: Gareth and his players need to be allowed to play! They shouldn't fear what the little ingerlanders might write or tweet about them!

    Once again a desperate lack of midfield creativity for England. We have all this talent but the charming Southgate has whatever the opposite of the Midas touch is!

    England work it into the box and it's on a plate for Jack Grealish, but his body is in an awkward position and he stabs at it with the outside of his boot but doesn't get good connection on it and the shot is blocked.

    That's a tremendous save from Aaron Ramsdale, the Italian journalists in the press box thought it was in. The Arsenal goalkeeper has barely touched the ball but had to be so alert to keep out Sandro Tonali's well-taken effort at the back post. Italy's two chances have come from that channel on the left of the England defence.

    Juventus midfielder Manuel Locatelli is the first player into the book after scything through the back of Mason Mount.

    Matt Upson
    Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Giovanni Di Lorenzo has been brilliant so far in this game - the way he gets forward is excellent.

    What a save from Aaron Ramsdale - the space is there and the pull-back is brilliant. That is a goal but Ramsdale scurrying back across and leaves his left foot hanging on in the middle of the goal, makes himself big and puts his body in bang on the right position. Brilliant save.

    Understudy staking his claim too.

    Aaron Ramsdale makes a superb save to deny Sandro Tonali a first international goal, spreading himself wide to keep out the AC Milan midfielder's first-time strike from eight yards out.

    Just three games after tonight to iron out the issues, by the way.

    Is it coming home from Qatar then?
