72'
Acrobatic attempt! The freekick delivery into the Switzerland box isn't a good one, it's behind Nketiah and the Arsenal forward can only direct an acrobatic attempt over the bar.
71'
There is a sense that England are starting to build some momentum, but there was the same sense towards the end of the first half and it came to nothing. Can they create more?
70'
Godfrey clears! The Everton defender needed to clear that cross from Lotomba because Switzerland had attackers in the box waiting for the delivery to reach them. Very good ball.
69'
England just haven't created enough goalscoring opportunities. They have looked more potent from set pieces, but by and large Switzerland look rather comfortable at the back.
68'
Both Eze and Jones have been in excellent form for their respective club sides this season. Can they bring the sort of tempo and intensity that England need in these final 20 minutes?
67'
There's no doubt England have the advantage over their opponents when it comes to depth. Boothroyd has the luxury of introducing two proven Premier League talents.

Double change for England as well with Eze and Jones coming on for Smith Rowe and Davies.

Change for Switzerland here. Guillemenot comes off to be replaced by Imeri.
64'

Hudson-Odoi freekick saved! That's the first time England have really tested Racioppi with the Swiss goalkeeper diving to his left to stop Hudson-Odoi's freekick from finding the back of the net!
63'
This could be a decent opportunity for England. They have a dangerous freekick 20 yards out from goal. Who wil take it? Hudson-Odoi looks to be lining up the strike.

And now Bamert is shown a yellow card for fouling Nketiah on the edge of the box.

Guehi is shown the first yellow card of the match for a strong challenge.
58'
Hudson-Odoi looks to be taking it upon himself to make something happen for England, but that's twice now he has dribbled to the edge of the box and then found a lack of options.
57'
It's just not happening for England at the moment. Switzerland are finding it quite easy to stay tight at the back and then strike out on the rapid counter attack.
55'
Skipp bursts through the midfield, but he has a lack of options ahead of him. Switzerland are then allowed to reorganise themselves and then the cross from McNeil is far too deep.
54'
So much of this England system is about getting Aarons and McNeil down the wings, stretching play, but they haven't been able to do that as much as they would have liked.
53'
Surely Boothroyd has to be thinking about some changes here. Eze would be one option. The Crystal Palace man would inject some intensity to a team that has been sluggish.
52'
England are not playing like one of the tournament favourites here. They have been one-dimensional. England don't look to have many ideas of how to break down Switzerland.
51'
England need to sharpen up here. The high press from the opposition is forcing them to make hasty decisions and Boothroyd's side have nearly lost two goals because of it.
50'

Off the post! Once again England shoot themselves in the foot with a loose pass inside their own half, Switzerland find Toma free at the back post, but his shot comes back off the base of the woodwork!
48'
Nketiah is one of the most lethal finishers at this level of the game, but England have struggled to create opportunities for the England forward. He's been feeding on scraps.
