    That was Lucas Pacqueta again on John Stones. It's a bit clumsy, he has more lives than a cat!

    None of them are bad fouls, they are just repetitive.

    Anthony Gordon didn't get enough power or pace on the ball to trouble the keeper.

  2. England 0-0 Brazil

    Anthony Gordon has been one of England's best players tonight. Declan Rice picks him out from a free-kick into the box but Bento denies the Newcastle wideman.

    England's Jude Bellingham and England's Ben ChilwellPA Media

    Dan: Jude Bellingham needs to learn the dark arts of how to get opposition players booked/sent off. It’s sad it’s needed, but when you’re that good you have to play the game.

  4. England 0-0 Brazil

    Harry Maguire heads the corner into the air and Bento flaps at it but Brazil manage to clear.

  5. England 0-0 Brazil

    A few flicks in midfield see Raphinha away down the right but his cross is a simple one for Jordan Pickford to deal with.

    England go up the other end and win a corner.

  6. England 0-0 Brazil

    Rodrygo is fouled within seconds of the restart but he's OK to play on. Brazil go backwards from the free-kick.

  7. KICK-OFF

    England 0-0 Brazil

    The second half is under way.

    Strongly agree. Gallagher is not up to the task & Chilwell looks completely out of his depth.

    Rich

    Hope Mainoo comes on for Gallagher!

  9. England 0-0 Brazil

    England's players are out waiting for Brazil's to join them. Doesn't look like any changes.

    Lot of the usual doom and gloom - England were missing 11 players before this game and lost a twelfth after ten minutes, yet they've had the majority of the territory. Yes it's frustrating how little use they're making of it but in a tournament game half this side wouldn't be playing - and half the Brazilian defence would be off!

    England's Harry Maguire receives the captain's armband as Kyle Walker is substituted offReuters

    England's defending against high-class attackers has always carried a question mark and nothing that has happened so far changes that.

    Harry Maguire, now wearing the captain's armband, has looked uncomfortable and made the sort of error that might carry heavy punishment at Euro 2024.

    He was lucky Raphinha allowed him to escape.

    Everyone saying England are playing badly. How are they meant to play well when one player is allowed to commit so many cynical fouls with impunity? Every break there is a Paqueta foul. Hardly conducive to flowing football.

    It's quite clear we are missing a presence on the right. Foden is a great player but is no good on the right Saka is missed. And I'm not sure why Gallagher is even on the pitch all he does is lose the ball and tackle poorly.

    England's Jude Bellingham reactsReuters

    The number of times Jude Bellingham is being fouled cynically really disrupts his game. He is going to have to deal with that at the Euros.

    Bellingham needs to control it [his temper] and he needs to understand he will be targeted.

    It is then about how players around him exploit that and come to life.

    If England want to win anything they have to find a way to get more time for Bellingham on the ball. If he’s taken out of the game, like so far tonight, I don’t see us winning the Euros.

    Fairly even first half. On possession it was 51-49% and shots (eight) and shots on target (two) were both level.

  17. 'England need to apply more pressure'

    HT: England 0-0 Brazil

    Matt Upson
    Former Arsenal defender on BBC Radio 5 Live

    It has been an interesting tactical battle.

    Brazil will go in happy and England need to apply some more pressure.

    Jude Bellingham is having a conversation with the referee as he walks off the pitch.

    When England have the ball we need to see some more commitment and running.

    Goalless at the break. Chances for both teams but not a classic.

  19. England 0-0 Brazil

    England left-back Ben Chilwell lifts a cross from deep well over the bar. Gareth Southgate makes a note in his pad.

    The number of fouls is ridiculous. I know it's a friendly but one of the England players are going to get injured. Show some yellow cards!
