  • ANDORRA 0-1 ENGLAND

    35 England are very comfortable, despite the plastic pitch...

    Makes you wonder if Southgate will actually make a change at half-time.

    But Andorra can't be underestimated in any case!

  • ANDORRA 0-1 ENGLAND

    33 You want to guess how much possession England have been controlling?

    Well, the answer is 84 per cent! Andorra need to get a grip!

  • ANDORRA 0-1 ENGLAND

    31 SUBSTITUTION

    Andorra manager Alvarez makes an early switch as Christian Garcia appears to have picked up an injury, probably in his hamstring.

    Garcia is replaced by Lima

  • ANDORRA 0-1 ENGLAND

    30 England manager Southgate said he would start Sancho so that he could build some confidence and put his dribbling skills to good use.

    And so far so very good for the Manchester United star, who has been having a lot of fun down the left flank passing through everyone!

  • ANDORRA 0-1 ENGLAND

    28 England are not slowing down even though they are protecting the lead very comfortably.

    After all, this is an opportunity to impress manager Southgate and a top performance could lead to the starting line-up.

    The players are taking full advantage of that chance

  • ANDORRA 0-1 ENGLAND

    26 CHANCE

    England captain Trippier delivers along ball that is met by Coady's header but Andorra skipper Vales clears it

  • ANDORRA 0-1 ENGLAND

    25 Chilwell is going to remember this goal forever, and not because of the lengthy VAR check.

    But because this is his first ever England goal!

  • ANDORRA 0-1 ENGLAND

    23 CHANCE!

    England smell blood in the water as they come close to a second goal!

    Sancho delivers a cross from the left and finds Abraham completely unmarked.

    The Roma star gets the header but Gomes punches it away!

  • ANDORRA 0-1 ENGLAND

    23 It took a while, although the plastic pitch hasn't really been helping England...

    Nevertheless, the Three Lions lead thanks to Chilwell's cool finish!

  • ANDORRA 0-1 ENGLAND

    20 And it's a goal for England as it turns out there was no offside in the build-up.

    If anything, Andorra;s marking was very poor as Sancho had all the time in the world to pick Foden's ball up and pass back to Chilwell, who finished with ease!

  • GOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLL!

    ENGLAND SCORE WITH CHILWELL!!!!!!!!

  • ANDORRA 0-0 ENGLAND

    18 There is a VAR check taking place by Frappart and we're waiting to see what comes of it....

  • ANDORRA 0-0 ENGLAND

    17 NO GOAL

    England think they've opened the scoring as Foden's long ball reaches Sancho in the area.

    The Manchester United star cuts it back to Chilwell, who fires it in the back of the net.

    However, referee Monzul overrules it as offside

  • ANDORRA 0-0 ENGLAND

    15 Southampton star Ward-Prowse is the one handling all of England's set-pieces.

    The midfielder has been causing Andorra quite a headache with his crosses

  • ANDORRA 0-0 ENGLAND

    13 CHANCE!

    England star Chilwell gets the header off a long ball but just misses Gomes' left-hand post.

    The Chelsea ace was completely unmarked

  • ANDORRA 0-0 ENGLAND

    12 Sancho delivers a cross from the left flank to the penalty area where Abraham is.

    The ball reaches the England star, who didn't expect it on account of Garcia's poor touch, and nothing comes of it

  • ANDORRA 0-0 ENGLAND

    10 The travelling England fans are very vocal and lively.

    They won't stop cheering Southgate's rotated side and are loudly singing the national anthem

  • ANDORRA 0-0 ENGLAND

    8 England have been totally controlling possession in the opening minutes.

    However, the Three Lions still need to work on their final pass.

    Long game to go though

  • ANDORRA 0-0 ENGLAND

    5 CHANCE

    Chilwell picks up a long ball from Foden inside the box but is blocked by Gomes.

    Game has paused as the Andorra keeper needs some medical attention

  • ANDORRA 0-0 ENGLAND

    5 England are dominating possession and tempo, just as expected.

    We're seeing some hard challenges and tackles from Andorra, again as expected.

    Referee Monzul will have her hands full tonight...

  • ANDORRA 0-0 ENGLAND

    3 Ward-Prowse delivers a beautiful ball from a free-kick towards Coady, who's moved forward in the box.

    However, the England ace is beaten to the ball by a defender and that leads to a corner.

    Nothing comes off the set-piece

  • ANDORRA 0-0 ENGLAND

    2 And another quick reminder:

    Andorra manager Koldo Alvarez appears to have opted for a 4-4-2 formation.

    Josep Gomes starts in goal with Chus Rubio at right-back and Marc Garcia on the other side, while Christian Garcia and Max Llovera team up at centre-back.

    Jesus Rubio covers the right flank with Xavier Vieira on the other side, while Marc Rebes and Marc Vales link up in midfield.

    Cristian Martinez and Aaron Sanchez lead the attack

  • ANDORRA 0-0 ENGLAND

    1 Just a quick reminder:

    England manager Gareth Southgate has opted for a vastly rotated side against Andorra, just as expected.

    It seems like Southgate is going to field a 4-3-3 formation with Sam Johnstone between the sticks.

    Captain Kieran Trippier plays at right-back with Ben Chilwell on the other side, while John Stones and Conor Coady team up at centre-back.

    Bukayo Saka, James Ward-Prowse and Jesse Lingard link up in midfield.

    Phil Foden, Jadon Sancho and Tammy Abraham lead the attack

  • PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!

    AND OFF WE GO IN ANDORRA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • HERE COME THE TEAMS!!!

    The Estadi Nacional d'Andorra is ready to host the crucial World Cup qualifier between England and Andorra.

    Kieran Trippier will be tonight's captain for the Three Lions whereas Marc Vales will be donning his nation's armband.

    We are now set for the national anthems and then it's game time!

    Not long to go now...!
