EURO 2024 Tracker: Sparkling Spain cruise to victory over Georgia after England edge through
22:53 CET - Spain have beaten Georgia 4-1, and it was another imperious performance from the in-form team this tournament. The Georgians took the lead against the run of play early on, but Spain were always in control. They grabbed an equaliser thanks to Rodri, and went into overdrive in the second half, soaring to an impressive victory. There is no shame for the Georgian players though, who gave their all and have made their nation proud. Spain will now face Germany in a mouthwatering quarter-final.
22:42 CET - Spain are truly in cruise control now, with substitute Dani Olmo getting in on the act. It's a calm and collected finish from the midfielder, finessing the ball into the bottom corner.
22:36 CET - That is a gorgeous goal from Nico Williams, and maybe that is game over. Spain gave Georgia a taste of their own medicine, flying forward on the counter, and Williams finished so beautifully into the roof of the net. 3-1.
22:09 CET - Spain take the lead, and it's a header from Fabian Ruiz! Just minutes after half-time, Yamal whipped in the most delightful ball, and Ruiz was on the end of it to tuck away. Lovely goal. Yamal is something special!
22:04 CET - And we are back underway for the second half!
21:50 CET - What an electric half of football. Spain have played brilliant attacking football, and could easily have scored a couple of goals. However, Georgia have been relentless on the counter-attack, causing Spain some real problems. It's been a great game so far.
21:40 CET - Brilliant finish from Rodri! It's 1-1! Spain do deserve it, they've been knocking on the door, with Rodri smashing home brilliantly into the bottom corner.
21:18 CET - Oh my word, Georgia have taken the lead, totally against the run of play! Spain have been knocking on the door, getting closer and closer, but Georgia suddenly hit them on the counterattack, and Robin le Normand bundled into his own goal after a cross from Otar Kakabadze!
21:00 CET - And we are underway in the match between Spain and Georgia!
20:47 CET - Phew, and we are quickly onto the second match of the day between Spain and Georgia. Check out the line-ups below.
20:38 CET - England have done it! I don't know how, but they are through to the quarter-finals! For 95 minutes, England were heading home, looking toothless and flat against a really resolute Slovakia team. But Bellingham stunned Slovakia with a stunning overhead kick with a minute to go, before Kane scored the winner a few minutes into extra time with a head. They are somehow through, and will face Switzerland next.
20:21 CET - The second half of extra time is underway. England lead 2-1. Can they hang on in this incredible game of football?
20:04 CET - What a turnaround! Just a minute into extra time Harry Kane has headed England into the lead. Who saw this coming?! They didn't deserve it, but that's football for you!
19:56 CET - WOW! Jude Bellingham has rescued England in the final minute of stoppage time with a spectacular overhead kick. Cometh the hour, cometh the man.
19:50 CET - Six minutes to be added on. Is there time for a late, late England leveller?
19:42 CET - England are getting closer. This time Declan Rice rifles an effort against the post from the edge of the box and Harry Kane can only fire the rebound over.
19:40 CET - A big missed opportunity for Harry Kane who directs a free header wide of the target from inside the six-yard box. We're heading into the final 10 minutes and England still haven't registered a shot on target.
19:25 CET - Here comes Cole Palmer with 65 minutes on the clock. Kieran Trippier is the man to make way, with Bukayo Saka moving to left-back.
19:15 CET - Nearly a horrible, horrible moment for England. A shambolic mix-up on the halfway line sees David Strelec try to lob Jordan Pickford from distance, and much to the relief of the Three Lions, the ball bounces narrowly wide of the post.
19:11 CET - England think they're level within five minutes of the restart but Phil Foden's close-range effort is ruled out for offside. A reprieve for Slovakia.
19:05 CET - The second half is underway and England remarkably remain unchanged. Is there any way back for the Three Lions?
18:50 CET - We've reached the halfway stage in Gelsenkirchen and it's Slovakia who deservedly hold the advantage after Ivan Schranz's opener.
Not for the first time this tournament, England have looked devoid of ideas in midfield and in the final third - surely Gareth Southgate will make some changes at the break?
18:26 CET - And there's the breaktrough for Slovakia! David Strelec threads a neat pass into the path of Ivan Schranz who finishes coolly beyond Jordan Pickford for his third goal of the tournament.
18:12 CET - What a chance for Slovakia to take an early lead. Lukas Haraslin is released through on goal but Marc Guehi comes across to make a vital block in the nick of time.
18:05 CET - A sloppy start from England as a misplaced Kieran Trippier pass ends up costing Marc Guehi a yellow card. The Crystal Palace man will miss the quarter-finals if England make it through.
17:59 CET - The anthems have sounded and the players are ready. Here we go!
17:30 CET - We're just 30 minutes away from kick-off in Gelsenkirchen. It's a huge moment for Manchester United's teenage sensation Kobbie Mainoo, who becomes the third youngest player to start for England in a major tournament knockout game.
17:00 CET - The team news is in, with England making one change from their goalless draw against Slovenia. Kobbie Mainoo starts in midfield as Conor Gallagher drops to the bench.
As for Slovakia, Francesco Calzona has named an unchanged side following their 1-1 draw against Romania on Wednesday.
16:02 CET - England's performances in the group stage have led to huge question marks over the players and Gareth Southgate. However, they have been dealt a dream draw, with Slovakia, Switzerland, and potentially the Netherlands or Austria standing in their way of the final.
But the way they have been playing offensively won't be filling any of their fans with confidence that they can go on a deep run. Something will have to change from this point on for the Three Lions.
