It's all hands to the wheel for La Roja here.

77' The ball is pinging around the Cabo Verde box

By Andrew McGarry

For those of you who like football formations, Cabo Verde are now playing a 6-4-0, with no one up front and a six-man backline.

The ball is pinging around the front half, and Spain are really trying to make the breakthrough, but it's still holding somehow.

By Andrew McGarry

That was a bit willing!

The ball was crossed in, Vozinha took the ball on the second grab and was thumped with a shoulder from Pedri.

Lamine Yamal seems to be warming up - will the wonderkid be the answer?

By Andrew McGarry
