Tense, nervous headache? Yeah. England have plenty to think about after a difficult first half in Brighton. Spain were smoother and more relaxed, with Bonmati superb in midfield, though neither team created a really clear chance. England came closest to taking the lead when Ellen White had a goal ruled out for offside.

As expected, Olga Carmona and Marta Cardona come into the Spain team. So do a couple of their Real Madrid teammates, Teresa Abelleira and Esther Gonzalez. Fine player though she is, Abelleira’s selection is a big surprise; this is only her fifth cap, and she has yet to play a minute in the tournament. Either she or Patri Guijarro will play as the midfield pivot.

Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Euro 2022 quarter-final between England and Spain at the Amex Stadium in Brighton. This is where n n sh n stuff gets real for England. Thrillingly, terrifyingly real. After cavorting through Group A, England – the team, and the country – must now experience the exquisite torture of the knockout stages.

It’s all part of the risky pact that was made when the FA applied to stage what was then Euro 2021. Hosting increases your chances of winning a tournament, but should you fail, the pain will be so much greater. It’s not the despair, Laura…

At every major tournament the hosts provide a uniquely fascinating story, even more so when they have a realistic chance of going the distance. It’s the time of their life, an emotional crescendo of hope, expectation, joy, fear and Sweet Caroline. But once the knockout stages begin, there is always the danger that the music will suddenly stop.

The Euro 2022 draw meant England were always going to face a difficult quarter-final. Spain are formidable opponents, even if they are not the same without the injured Alexia Putellas and Jenni Hermoso. A month ago Spain were favourites to win the tournament; now, after labouring through an admittedly difficult group, they are fifth on that list.

England can really hurt Spain in transition, especially now that temperatures have dropped to a humane 19C. But they will need to leave their ego in the dressing-room, because they are likely to spend large parts of the game without the ball.

That doesn’t have to be a problem. Indeed, there’s an argument that it’s the best template for an England victory. Germany beat Spain 2-0 in the group stage despite having only 30 per cent of the possession. And England won by a similar score at Euro 2017 even though Spain had the ball for 78 per cent of the match.

England won’t fear Spain, but then the feeling’s mutual. When you keep the ball better than any team in the world, you develop a bulletproof confidence. Spain don’t care about what happened in the group stage, especially as England were rarely under pressure in those games. This is the real quiz.

I could prattle on about gegenpressing v tiki-taka, about Lucy Bronze coming up against her new Barcelona teammates, about the Manchester derby between Lauren Hemp and Ona Batlle, about Ellen White being one short of Wayne Rooney’s England goalscoring record. But a game like this doesn’t need a never-ending preview: it’s a European Championship quarter-final between the hosts and the pre-tournament favourites. That’s it. That’s the preamble.

Key occasions:
69 minutes Kelly’s second nook is headed effectively away by Mapi León, pressed by Russo.
69 minutes Kelly’s inside nook is hit from behind by Panos…
68 minutes Kelly wins a nook for England. There’s a suggestion, by the best way, that Hemp was offside within the build-up to the penalty attraction within the sixtieth minute, so England could not have stolen.
67 minutes Daly makes a pleasant one-two with Walsh, who’s having an excellent second half, and picks up a shot from 20 yards that Panos comfortably saves. That’s England’s first shot on aim within the sport.
65 min: Nice save from Earps! Del Castillo is inflicting all types of issues for Daly. He sneaks to the correct and floats a mishit cross* which Earps brilliantly brushes away together with his claws. The fumble virtually falls to Gonzalez however Vibrant is near punt.
* I believe. If it was a shot, it was nice.
65 minutes All of a sudden, England is 25 minutes away from an undesirable BBC exit montage.
64 min: England substitution Ella Toone replaces Fran Kirby, who had a disappointingly quiet sport.
63 minutes Panis flies to the sting of his field to beat Hemp with an amazing fly ball from Walsh.
60 min: England penalty attraction! Cáñamo falls within the space after a clumsiness by Batlle, however the referee attracts a foul for Spain. I believe that is a foul on Hemp, though I do not anticipate VAR to overturn it as a result of it wasn’t clear and apparent. No penalty.
59 minutes Right here is the aim of Spain. It was not an important protection for England.
“SPAIN LEAD!”

58 min: England substitutions Alessia Russo and Chloe Kelly exchange Ellen White and… Beth Mead. That is a courageous name from Sarina Wiegman.
57 minutes I needn’t inform you that it’s the first aim that England has conceded within the European Championship. They’re about to herald Alessia Russo and Chloe Kelly.
56 minutes It was a good looking play by Del Castillo however poor protection by Daly, who made a split-second miscalculation and tried to win a ball that was at all times going to be Del Castillo’s.
daly received engaged on the sting of the world and was completed off by Del Castillo. He fed the ball again to Gonzalez, who had sufficient room to spin and drag a low shot previous each the Earps and Vibrant on the line.
GOAL! England 0-1 Spain (González 54)
Esther González places Spain forward!
52 minutes England have been a lot better for the reason that break, a minimum of with out the ball. It is nonetheless a little bit of a sizzling potato after they have it.
49 minutes White screwed Stanway’s cross vast from 15 yards out, although she was offside anyway.
49 minutes England’s stress has been extra aggressive since half-time.
47 minutes There’s a delay within the free throw as a result of a protest on the sphere. It will definitely curls in the direction of the far publish, the place Williamson is penalized for a problem on Mariona. I am undecided I did a lot mistaken, though Mapia León cleared the ball anyway.
46 minutes Carmona is penalized for what appeared like a good sort out on Mead. Free kick to England on the correct flank…
46 minutes peep! England begin the second half.
A half-time change for Spain: Athenea Del Castillo has changed Marta Cardona on the correct wing.
“Am I the one one who thinks of Spain Have they been cynical sufficient about their challenges? says Brendan Grande. “I really feel like that yellow card went too far. I hate playing cards for playing cards, however the aim is to stop repeat offenses. They’ve repeatedly offended, have they not?
I do not suppose they have been that unhealthy, though I do agree that they know what they’re doing. Defilement has develop into a ability, which is a bit miserable.
“Kirby will not be within the races” Christophe Brown says. “Too gradual to assist defensively and too destructive in possession. It is advisable to get the hook.
She has been quiet, though she stays the England participant most certainly to play a killer move. Ella Toone will seemingly exchange her sooner or later within the second half.
Halftime: England 0-0 Spain
Tense and nervous headache? Sure. England have lots to consider after a tough first half in Brighton. Spain was extra fluid and relaxed, with Bonmati very good in midfield, though neither staff created a extremely clear likelihood. England got here nearer to taking the lead when Ellen White had a aim disallowed for offside.
45 minutes Yellow card for Mapi León for a tactical foul on Stanway, who was main a harmful English counterattack. Stanway has been top-of-the-line gamers in England.
41 minutes Now we have simply seen one other repetition of the disallowed aim. He hit Mariona after which, crucially, received off Daly earlier than White netted him offside.
40 minutes Walsh’s angled cross from the left is headed vast by Hemp, 10 yards. She could not see, with Walsh leaping for the ball in entrance of her and, in truth, replays present that he hit Hemp within the shoulder.
39 minutes That disallowed aim has cheered England up, and Bronze ignites the gang with an amazing backheel to Hemp.
38 minutes If Hemp’s free kick had hit Mariona and gone proper to White, I believe the aim would have been. There was additionally speak of Lucy Bronze being offside, though she didn’t contact the ball. Anyway, it is nonetheless 0-0.
VAR examine: no targets! Hemp’s free kick from the left bounced off blind Mariona after which an England participant earlier than touchdown on White. He emphatically completed however appeared to know immediately that he was out of the sport. And she or he went.
37 min: White’s aim disallowed! I want to see this once more.
35 minutes “I’ve seen this sport earlier than Rob,” says Ruth Purdue. “England is outmatched, outmatched and overrun. That exact move into midfield is inflicting all types of chaos.”
I suppose the constructive is that, with all of the dominance of Spain, they haven’t created clear possibilities.
33 minutes England are struggling to maintain the ball and have not had a scoring alternative but. Spain has had 5, one heading in the right direction.
32 minutes Carmona’s heart hits Bronze and goes again for one more nook from Spain. He’s hit by Earps and volleyed from the sting of the world by Bonmati.

Spain is effectively up now.
29 minutes Possession percentages thus far: England 44-56 Spain.
28 minutes Good stress from White forces Paredes to hack the ball out of play. That received the gang shifting once more, which is one thing England want.
26 minutes Hemp and Mead have exchanged wings for the primary time. I am stunned it hasn’t occurred a bit sooner as they have been fairly quiet thus far.
23 minutes Bonmati skins Walsh down the correct and drives a low cross to Gonzalez on the close to publish. She turns her again on Cardona, whose first shot from 12 yards deflects over the crossbar.
22 minutes Mead tries to run Carmona, who matches her tempo and calmly wins the ball. Spain has been the perfect and most relaxed staff within the first quarter.
20 minutes Mead commits an pointless foul on Mariona on the Spanish left. England look nervous, particularly with out the ball. The ensuing free kick is deflected to the close to publish by Mariona, the place Patri assists him with a intelligent looping header. The ball strikes a couple of meters away from the far publish.
19 minutes Abelleira’s nook bounces off an England defender and is cleared by Daly.
18 minutes Mariona walks away from Bronze and holds up a cross that Vibrant places behind. One other nook for Spain…
17 minutes Mariona slides infield from the left, away from Mead, and hits a long-range shot that Earps handily stops.
16 minutes Spain’s formation appears nearer to 4-2-3-1, with Bonmati taking part in forward of Patri and Abelleira. It is all very fluid although, so I could possibly be mistaken.
quarter-hour It is all fairly cautious. England are selecting their moments to press, with Spain nonetheless dominating possession total; We’ve not seen a stat, however she feels round 40/60.
13 minutes After a promising play, Mead drops a little bit simply 25 yards from aim. Stephanie Frappart continues to play with the waves.
