England v Austria, international friendly, 2/6/2021 - Official line-ups. BESOCCER
Join us for live coverage of the international friendly between England and Austria at the Riverside Stadium in Middlesbrough. It is the first of two Euro 2020 friendlies for Gareth Southgate's men.
That's all from us, thanks for your company and see you again soon!
94'
FT: England 1-0 Austria!!! All over in Middlesbrough and a 56th minute goal for Bukayo Saka proved to be the difference. England were the better team for most of it without peppering Bachmann's goal, but Austria picked up in the last 20 minutes. Sabitzer was very sharp and Schopf very nearly scored right at the end. The win came at a cost though as TAA went off injured after pulling a muscle in the closing stages.
End of match
94'
Austria counter, Sabitzer's pass finds Gregoritsch who heads wide!!! And that's that!!
92'
Off the line by White!!! A chipped ball into the box is batted away by Pickford, the ball goes to Schopf whose effort is cleared by White!!
92'
It looks this will end 1-0. England have been better, but not had many clear chances to be fair. Austria have picked up and a draw would possibly be fair.
91'
Three extra minutes.
90'
England down to 10 as they have no changes left.
90'
TAA is walking off the pitch after pulling a muscle in his left leg.
TAA is carded in bizarre circumstances. He seemed to wave him back on the pitch, TAA back on, but sees yellow as he apparently did not have permission!
England quadruple sub: Mings, Rice and Lingard are replaced by JWP, DCL Watkins and Godfrey.
56'
Saka makes it 1-0!!!! Bellingham dispossesses Austria, Kane goes forward, Lingard finds Grealish and even though an Austrian player stops Grealish scoring, Saka picks up the loose ball to score!
Lainer catches Saka late and is deservedly carded.
51'
Little to report in the last few minutes here.
48'
Alaba sends a cross into the box and it's headed away by the defence.
46'
England win the first free-kick of the half after a foul by Kalajdzic.
46'
England get us going again!
45'
HT: England 0-0 Austria!!! Half-time at the Riverside in a rather quiet first 45. England have been the better team here and could have scored through TAA early on and then Kane, but Bachmann has had little else to do. England had the ball in the net, but Mings had clearly made a foul in the build up. Austria have done little in attack with Baumgartner and Kalajdzic having half-chances. 0-0 is fair. Back soon!
45'
45+1: Grealish passes to Kane, but nothing comes of it and the visitors win a free-kick.

I think this will be goalless at the interval.

Kalajdzic!!! The Stuttgart man has a pop from just outside the box and it's straight at Pickford.
35'
Austria win themselves a corner.
32'
England still attacking here. but can't find a way through.
29'
Kane!!! Saka wins the ball, he gives it to Grealish who finds an offside Kane and his shot is saved by the keeper from close range!!! The GK picks up a knock from Kane, but he's ok now.
28'
TAA's free-kick hits the wall and then Kane's cross is punched away by the keeper!
27'
Free-kick to England just outside the box after Grealish is fouled again. Dragovic the guilty man this time.

TAA's cross from the far side is deflected behind for a corner kick.
21'
Saka!!! Hinteregger can't deal with a ball into the box and Saka miscues it wide!
Schlager is booked for a poor tackle on Saka's ankle. The ref has run out of patience.
19'
England having the possession, but little to report in the last few minutes.
16'
Grealish is caught late by Laimer and he only avoids the booking as it's a friendly. That's a poor challenge.

Saka is down after taking a stray arm to the face.
