Decent passage of play from England and it brings the crowd onto their feet for the first time.

Skipper Harry Kane has a pass fizzed to him in the area but he is snuffed out by the Swiss defence.

Emile Smith Rowe is in the England dugout, not featuring after missing out on training on Friday.

He is sitting behind 6ft 7in goalkeeper Fraser Forster.

Poor lad can't see any of the action, someone get him a cushion to sit on.

It's been a slow start on a sunny, spring day in the capital.

Neither goalkeeper called into action yet.

The wing-backs have got license to get forward because of the three centre-backs. There are options; they don't want to get too flat but there will be plenty of movement around Harry Kane.

Tricky winger Ruben Vargas showing early signs that Kyle Walker-Peters might be in for a difficult debut.

The Augsburg man weaves into the box but the cross is cut out by Ben White.

The likes of Xherdan Shaqiri, Ricardo Rodriguez and Granit Xhaka have been around for ages for Switzerland.

A very experienced side.

Number one goalkeeper Yann Sommer would have been in too but he is out with Covid.

England, at home, are playing in their changed blue kit.

Switzerland in all white.

This might get confusing.

Off we go at Wembley Stadium, London.

There's a moment of reflection for the ongoing war in Ukraine before kick-off, with the two sets of players coming together.

Harry Kane holds a Ukraine flag with 'Peace' written across it.

I think Southgate is waiting for another centre-forward to step up in their club form and say 'I'll be the man to play when Harry Kane is injured'. Tammy Abraham coming back in suggests that. He's looking for someone who is scoring goals, but if that isn't there, there is enough in the squad to be able to play up front. Phil Foden and Jack Grealish regularly take on that role at Man City.

England skipper Harry Kane (48) needs one goal to move ahead of Gary Lineker in the all-time top scorers list for the Three Lions.

Only Wayne Rooney (53) and Bobby Charlton (49) have scored more.

England centre-back Conor Coady to Sky Sports:

"I think it's a chance to keep on improving and performing for all of us, not just necessarily me. I think it's the same for every single player in the squad at the minute.

"We are trying to perform and improve as a team because we've obviously got a big year, we're looking at this as our first international camp of the year and we've spoken a lot about it, to try and start as we mean to go on."

England

England boss Gareth Southgate to Sky Sports:

"Every England game is important and there’s a great opportunity for the three who are making their full debut and for the rest of the team to keep that cohesion and to keep building on what we’ve done over the last two to three years.

On debutants Kyle Walker-Peters, Marc Guehi and (substitute) Tyrick Mitchell: "There’s got to be a realistic expectation of how far their development is and what they might provide in the immediate term and then what they might provide over a longer distance.

"But there’s competition for places and the way they trained they have all fitted in perfectly – it means that when we change the team or we lose players, that we’ve got really good strength in depth to come in.

"I don’t want to put too much pressure on them – this is their first game and this is why we’ve got them surrounded by experience as well, to give them the best chance of succeeding and let’s see how they go."

When you look at the versatility of someone like Mason Mount, he can play wide or as a number 10, and Phil Foden as well. I look at Gallagher and Mount; you are playing with two players there that love to get in advance of the striker. That really plays into a nice picture for Gareth Southgate.

It looks like Manchester City defender John Stones has pulled up in the warm-up and has been ruled out.

In comes Arsenal centre-half Ben White instead.

Issues for Pep Guardiola to deal with.

Switzerland boss Murat Yakin's brother Hakan used to have the slickest hair in football back when he was playing for the national team.

Did you try copying that style when you were younger?

No? Oh, just me then.

Switzerland have only conceded two goals in seven games so far under manager Murat Yakin, keeping five clean sheets.

However, the Swiss have never beaten England on English soil in 11 previous attempts (D4 L7).

It is a brilliant moment for them all [Marc Guehi, Kyle Walker-Peters and Conor Gallagher]. They are going to want to get involved and get a touch of the ball early. But it is good for them to play in an atmosphere like this; the whole process is different to a club game. Just getting used to that is pretty vital.

England scored 52 goals during 2021, their most in a single calendar year in their history.

The Three Lions also kept 14 clean sheets in 2021, another record for them in a single year.

One team who don't need to worry about any sort of boycott is Italy.

The Azzurri will not be at this year's World Cup after a humiliating 1-0 play-off loss against North Macedonia.

The European champions will miss their second World Cup in a row after also failing to qualify for Russia 2018.

Aleksandar Trajkovski fired an injury-time winner, prompting contrasting scenes of jubilation and devastation in Palermo.

"A great void will remain within us," said Juventus defender Chiellini.

"We didn't concede anything tonight apart from the goal. We created plenty of chances, but unfortunately we didn't manage to score. There is a great disappointment. From September to today we have made mistakes and we have paid for them.

"I am proud of a team that has given everything. It is clear that we are destroyed and crushed. We hope that this void will give us the push to start again."
