    Ben Chilwell's second effort on goal and he is getting closer, he has to keep it down.

    It was at an awkward height for Chilwell. He got it wrong and dragged it wide.

    Bellingham is a worry for me, a great player no doubt about that. But he's got a red card in him if you ask me, hopefully his temperament holds up in key moments, maybe Beckham and Rooney can have a word before the Euros.

    Jon: On paper this is a pretty strong team for England. Not many, if any, stronger in the current set ups. Got to be expecting to make the final at the euros, if not winning it.

    I am so confused why everyone thinks England should and will win… we do have quality in our England side but there are some dangerous born winners in the Brazilian squad and they will win regardless if they are going through a transition.

    A strange one where England have a load of quality right-backs who usually can't get a game and here is centre-back Ezri Konsa marking Vinicius Jr at Wembley.

    Kyle Walker walks down the tunnel to get treatment. Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola will hope that's just a precaution.

    Kyle Walker is indeed done. He hands the armband to Harry Maguire and comes off for Ezri Konsa.

    This is Aston Villa defender Konsa's senior England debut.

    This has been an unnerving start for England. Brazil have been cutting them open regularly and it has been an uncomfortable start for Gareth Southgate's side.

    There are plenty of Brazil fans inside Wembley and they are enjoying what they have seen so far.

    John Stones is having a conversation with the midfield players.

    Brazil will not come up and mark closely against you, Phil Foden gets robbed of the ball and you cannot afford to do that in that area of the pitch.

    Kyle Walker is going to be substituted after receiving treatment on his hamstring. He got treatment and has tested it out but England are going to make the change. It looks like Ezri Konsa is coming on.

    Big chance for Ollie Watkins on his Euro 2024 audition. The ball drops to the England striker in the box, six yards out and he shoots over - albeit under heavy pressure from a defender.

    Another chance for Brazil. Lucas Paqueta wins the ball off Phil Foden and feeds Vinicius Jr, who shoots wide from inside the box.

    With so many players missing from both sides this international break is pointless. They’d be better off carrying on for two weeks, finishing the season two weeks earlier and having four friendlies before the euros rather than two. The outcome would be fewer pointless friendlies and a better standard Euros because teams would be better prepared.
