GOAL! SPAIN TAKE THE LEAD THROUGH OYARZABAL! Straight away at the other end, Busquets finds Oyarzabal who gets the better of Upamecano and fires his low shot straight into the bottom corner!

OFF THE BAR! Theo Hernandez strikes the woodwork! Mbappe lays the ball off to Benzema on the left flank before his ball finds the wide man whose strike comes off the bar!
63'
Mbappe's through ball looking for Benzema is intercepted by Simon, who rushes off his line to sweep up.
61'
SUB! Sarabia departs and Pino takes his place.
60'
Alonso's corner into the box finds Rodri who flicks the ball on but France can clear their lines.
58'
NO PENALTY! Gavi sprints into the box, but Tchouameni is there to make a vital tackle! There are appeals from the Spain players for a penalty, but it looked a clean challenge.
56'

CHANCES! Spain break through Sarabia. He bursts down the left flank and crosses looking for Torres at the far post, but it evades him and Oyarzabal. France then surge forward at the other end. Alonso puts in a timely sliding challenge on Mbappe to prevent him from getting a shot away.
52'
Kimpembe puts in a tough tackle on Torres. We have seen a lot of physical, scrappy challenges in this tight contest.
50'
Rodri fouls Pogba in his own box and the Frenchman is not happy. Deschamps tells him to calm down which is probably wise considering Pogba is already on a booking.
48'
YELLOW! For Pogba after he stamps on Busquets' foot. Surprisingly that is the first of the match after 11 fouls.

HALF-TIME!
Spain have had 64 per cent possession and two shots on goal, but really there has been very little in this cagey encounter at the San Siro. Second half coming up!

TWO minutes of added time at the end of the first half.

SUB! Upamecano is on for Varane.

40'
Varane is down holding his ankle after clearing the ball behind and is getting medical treatment.
36'
Tchouameni brings down Torres, who has been arguably the most lively player on the pitch, and Spain have a free-kick around 35 yards from goal. Alonso decides to shoot rather than cross but he fires it wide of Lloris' near post.
32'
Varane puts in a late tackle on Oyarzabal and escapes a booking. Moments ago there was a VAR check for a penalty for a possible Kounde handball, but no spot-kick was awarded.
30'
We're still goalless as we pass the half hour mark and France have arguably looked the more dangerous team, but there has been a lack of cutting edge from either side.
28'
26'
Kimpembe loses the ball and gives it to Torres. The Spaniard attempts to jink past Kimpembe in the box but he tackles him and Spain with a corner... which comes to nothing.
