England v Iceland: Euro 2024 warm-up – live
Friendly updates from the 7.45pm BST kick-offBarney Ronay on Harry Maguire | And you can mail Scott
England – now no longer featuring Jarrad Branthwaite, Jack Grealish, Curtis Jones, James Maddison, Harry Maguire, Jarell Quansah or James Trafford – conclude their preparations for Euro 2024 with this friendly against Iceland. The Three Lions have a positive record against the Icelanders, having won three and drawn one of their five previous games; on the other hand, they’ve lost the only one that really mattered, at Euro 2016, the nadir of river-cruise enthusiast Roy Hodgson’s reign. The last meeting was a 4-0 rout at Wembley, in 2020, so most expect Gareth Southgate’s side to sign off ahead of their jaunt to Germany with a similar momentum-building victory; Iceland only just narrowly missed out on Euros qualification, mind, so let’s take nothing for granted. Kick-off is at 7.45pm. It’s on. HÚH!
