    Referee has done well. Hasn't fallen for any cheap "fouls".

    It’s not been the prettiest watch, but I think we have neutralised Spain fairly well so far.

    Everyone’s doing their bit but I’m a bit frustrated with Saka who has blown two very good opportunities by cutting inside rather than passing.

    Credit to Williams so far. He's regularly been tracking back to help double-up on Saka (rendering him largely ineffective). Not every winger would be so willing to put in such a defensive shift.

    Shaw considering been out injured, doing well thus far.

    The advantage of having played in the negative side of the draw is we have had a hard lesson in ugly football! Spain… we gonna ugly you out of this!

    Relatively happy with that so far. Typically tight and cagey with few chances as you'd expect. Definitely got that feeling of 1-0 either way.

    They've had far more possession but think we've been pretty comfortable in defending it. Couple of times we've looked exposed down flanks but players have got back well with great tackles.

    For all their possession I can't think of a single chance they've created? Foden shot at end only shot on target I think?

    We're definitely carrying a threat on the break here too. Just a bit more composure needed.

    See you all on the other side!

    Shaw and Guehi been immense.

    Williams apparently has a €55m release fee at Bilbao. Surely someone is going to be all over that.

    Think we need to try and isolate Saka against Cucurella more. You can see their midfield are worried about the prospect and quick to cover. Even if Saka gets no joy it may open up space for someone else.
