    FT: Montenegro 1-5 England - Another five-star performance from the Three Lions, who came through a tricky start to cruise to a convincing victory. Montenegro took an early lead before England came roaring back, with a double from Barkley and strikes from Keane, Kane and Sterling enough to seal victory.
  • 92'
    Boljevic and Henderson both go into the book for a little spat.
  • 90'
    THREE minutes added on.
  • 88'
    It's been a brave performance from Montenegro though, and their strong spells at the beginning of each half mustn't be forgotten.
  • 86'
    Still England push, their superior energy levels beginning to show now.

    Harry Kane, who has put in a solid shift, makes way for Bournemouth's Callum Wilson.
  • 82'
    GOOOAAALL FOR ENGLAND!! Another one! Henderson picks out Sterling with a superb through ball and the Man City man makes no mistake, rolling the ball home for England's fifth.

    James Ward-Prowse will get his first England cap - he replaces two-goal man Ross Barkley.
  • 79'
    Declan Rice is looking very at home in an England shirt and looks like he could be the side's holding midfielder for many years to come.
  • 75'
    After a shaky start, England have looked very impressive. That's nine goals in Euro qualifying already and we haven't even finished the second game!
  • 72'
    GOOOOAAALL FOR ENGLAND!! Sterling bursts down the right and squares for Kane, who slots into the bottom-left corner. Lightning quick. Game over.
  • 71'
    Montenegro have completed 128 passes to England's 465.
  • 68'
    England looking to just see this one out. They've dropped a bit deeper and aren't quite as attacking when they do have the ball.

    GOOOOAAALL FOR ENGLAND - Sterling bamboozles the home defence down the right before cutting back into the box where Barkley is waiting to fire into the net. England will be grateful for that goal, having come under a bit of pressure from the hosts of late.
  • 54'
    Ross Barkley receives a yellow card for taking a free-kick too quickly. Didn't know that was a thing. Maybe he said something to the ref that we didn't hear.
  • 51'
    ENGLAND CHANCE - Hudson-Odoi has been very lively this second half, and this time he sees a low shot from the edge of the area tipped behind for a corner.
  • 48'
    Can Montenegro respond, or will England win this at a canter? We're about to find out...
  • 46'
    And we're back underway in Montenegro!
  • 45'
    HT: Montenegro 1-2 England - And that concludes an absorbing half. Montenegro took a shock lead after only 17 minutes but a fine Michael Keane header coupled with a Ross Barkley strike from Callum Hudson-Odoi's shot means England hold a slender lead at the break.
  • 41'
    The home fans have been very noisy up to this point, but now sit in stunned silence.
  • 38'
    GOOOAAALL FOR ENGLAND!! Callum Hudson-Odoi receives the ball on the left and drives at the home defence, jinking past two defenders before shooting from the edge of the box. Ross Barkley sticks out a leg to poke home from close range. The shot was probably going in anyway, but that just made sure.
  • 36'
    ENGLAND CHANCE - Sterling heads a Danny Rose cross across goal, but Harry Kane is crowded out by defenders before he can get a shot away.
  • 33'
    MONTENEGRO CHANCE - Stefan Mugosa lets fly from range, hitting a left-footed half-volley straight at Jordan Pickford.
  • 30'
    GOOOAALL FOR ENGLAND!! And they're back in it! Ross Barkley whips in a free-kick from the right and Everton's Michael Keane out-jumps Stefan Savic to plant a header into the bottom corner.
  • 27'
    Beqiraj is causing problems up front. Danny Rose has to be on hand to clear his cross. Seems we have a game on our hands!
  • 24'
    England need to start hitting the ball about a bit faster. It's all been a bit pedestrian so far.
  • 19'
    I don't think any of us expected that...

    GOOOOAAALL FOR MONTENEGRO!! The hosts score with their first attack of the game! Fatos Beqiraj holds off Michael Keane and nods down to Markov Vesovic, who curls the ball beautifully past Pickford into the far corner!
  • 13'
    Montenegro are yet to string two passes together. This could be the pattern for the rest of the game.
  • 11'
    Brilliant stuff by Raheem Sterling, who jinks past three Montenegro defenders before crossing into the box. Two centre-backs combine to clear, but it was a good bit of play by the winger. His manager Gareth Southgate applauds.
  • 7'
    England controlling the early possession but that’s to be expected.
  • 3'
    Can Callum Hudson-Odoi and Declan Rice impress on their first starts for England?
  • 1'
    And we’re off!
