    FT: Poland 1-1 England!! All over in Warsaw and what looked like it would end 0-0 saw both teams score! Kane put England ahead out of nothing after 72 minutes and then when England were thought they were going eight clear of Poland, Szymanski headed levelled in stoppage time! Poland are still in the running for top spot and a draw was fair. Thanks for joining us and see you again soon!
  • 93'
    A draw was fair and Poland have restored parity! England are gutted, but they had several opportunities to clear.
Goal

    There seems to be a collision between Kane and Glik and the Pole is accidentally kicked by the England man!
  • 73'
    That goal has come completely out of the blue!! It was some goal though.
Goal

    England go forward again through Sterling and Moder clears the danger.

Yellow card

  • 45'
    The ref has his yellow card here and the ref is talking to Glik and Maguire. He books the pair of them. Back for more shortly!
  • 45'
    HT: Poland 0-0 England!! The half ends with a fight which has carried on from the pushing and shoving before the free-kick. Several players start fighting and Kane is one of those who has to pull the players away.

    The ball has been put out of play as Stones seems to have an ankle problem.
  • 33'
    Shots: 5-4. It's been very even.
  • 32'
    Another good Poland attack, but the end product from Moder is very disappointing.

    Lewandowski!! Linetty scoops a pass to Lewandowski in the box, he gets a foot to it, but Pickford claims easily.
  • 27'
    Glik and Grealish exchange words after the latter thought he was fouled.
  • 24'
    England look to be the better side now, but there has yet to be a very clear opportunity despite some dangerous attacks.
  • 22'
    Kane is flagged offside. Clear.
  • 21'
    Sterling gets down the far side, he crosses for Kane in the area, but his header goes across goal rather than towards it.

  • 6'
    Rice gets there before Krychowiak and concedes the corner
  • 6'
    Grealish thinks he should get a corner off Dawidowicz, but the ref thinks otherwise. I think the Man City man was right.

  • 4'
    Free-kick to the hosts in midfield after Mount catches Krychowiak.

    Quiet start to this game up to now.

    It's 19 degrees and dry in Poland for this one.
  • PRVW
    None of the team which started the 4-0 win over Andorra on Sunday starts this one. In fact, it's the same side which won 0-4 in Hungary last Thursday.
  • PRVW
    Poland make six changes from the team which thrashed San Marino 1-7. Piatkowski, Helik, Kedziora, Szymanski, Kaminski and Swiderski drop out. Bednarek, Glik, Dawidowicz, Krychowiak, Jozwaik and Buksa come in.
  • PRVW
    Daniel Siebert of Germany is the referee for this one while his compatriot Bastian Dankert is the VAR.
  • PRVW
    England are top with 15 points from five games while Poland are second with 10 points and each side has five games left. If England win here, they will almost certainly finish top. Poland can't afford to lose though as Albania on 9 and Hungary on 7 are just behind them.
  • PRVW
    England XI: Pickford (GK); Shaw, Maguire, Stones, Walker; Grealish, Rice, Mount, Phillips, Sterling; Kane.
  • PRVW
    Poland XI: Szczesny (GK); Puchasz, Bednarek, Glik, Dawidowicz; Moder, Krychowiak, Linetty, Jozwiak; Lewandowski and Buksa.
