@Rapido Foden was starting games at the beginning of the tournament. Grealish started against the Czech Republic and played a prominent role off the bench against Germany.

Finals are time for leaders. Henderson and Grealish (both club captains) in the starting line-up. Rice and Saka can sit on the bench.

Pickford, Shaw, Stones, Maguire, Walker, Phillips, Mount, Henderson, Sterling, Grealish, Kane

Nil all loss on penalties far more likely

Yep, Southgate and Co. staying about 1 km from the Sparky cave. Could be a noisy night if they win.

I'm not a a huge football fan but normally follow England in the major tournaments. I haven't watched any games in the Euros and, surprise, surprise, England are in the finals.

I was at Cardiff in 2007 for the RWC Quarter Final against France so the Curse of the Meldrews exists and is real. Therefore I will not be watching the Final tonight in the hope England will win the thing....

I'm picking 4-1 England. 3-1 halftime.

Pretty happy with picking Shaw as *my" player early on in the tourney too.

Hang on, it was me that pointed out shaws amazing attacking qualities. At least that’s how I recall it not a word of a lie.

Very early goal to Shaw. England 1 Italy 0. 23 minutes gone now.

Like that Gareth Edwards try, it will be the clip shown 100,000 times.

Odd sort of game now. Italy seeing a lot of the ball, but creating very little and not testing the England defence terribly much. Their best chances have come from England errors.

Still 1-0.

Luke Shaw......lol @Billy-Tell

Italy started out of sorts but beginning to dominate possession.

Eight out from half time, Italy the better side at the moment. Score still 1-0.
