Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds Wembley will turn into a battlefield for England and Scotland.
- 5' The 26-year-old Reece James has been sensational this season — 1 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 10' Both keepers have barely been tested. England and Scotland are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 15' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Kieran Tierney suffering a number of foals already.
- 16' Scotland receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 16.
- 21' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 26' Andrew Robertson has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 31' England are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 36' A quiet spell here at Wembley. England seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 41' John McGinn needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 46' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Scotland that had 9 games and scored 10 goals.
- 51' England are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Scotland's shape.
- 56' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 56 minutes.
- 61' Scotland come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 63' The whistle greets Phil Foden as he departs to be replaced by Jack Grealish.
- 68' It looks like no one’s ball. Scotland is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 73' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 74' England ring the changes. Harry Kane has done his job and it is now time for Marcus Rashford to step up.
- 76' The Scotland bench stirs into life. Billy Gilmour is withdrawn and Stuart Armstrong gets his opportunity.
- 81' Grant Hanley, a Scotland , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 86' Time for substitution for Scotland. Che Adams is replaced by Kevin Nisbet.
- 87' The referee has no hesitation. Stephen O'Donnell is booked for Scotland — Yellow card on 87.
- It finishes all square. England and Scotland share the spoils 0-0.
