'Embarrassing for Croatia'published at 17:43 BST
Croatia 0-3 England
Matt Upson
Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 Live at Stadion HNK RijekaWell, we have seen a Trent Alexander-Arnold delivery from the right back position, but it was from Jarell Quansah.
He whips a lovely ball in, and as we have seen already, Gordon in potent form in front of goal.
This could be really embarrassing for Croatia if they carry on.

GOAL - Croatia 0-3 Englandpublished at 38 mins
Anthony Gordon
He cannot stop scoring!
It's now four in four for Anthony Gordon after a diving header following a lovely cross by Jarell Quansah.
England are a joy to watch.
Croatia are being taken apart.

Absolutely electric performance. Would love to see Trent in this game though. Quansah is far too wooden to play right back and barely played a forward pass. Alex Scott is just oozing composure.

He has that ability to skip past people. He is a nice, clean, crisp passer.

Croatia 0-2 England
A rare moment of worry for Jordan Pickford who attempts to punch a cross clear but doesn't make strong contact. England eventually clear and are back on the attack.

Alex Howell
BBC Sport England reporter at Stadion HNK RijekaIt is interesting how England's top performers don't currently play in the Premier League.
Kane and Bellingham shone at the World Cup and Gordon has continued his form from the summer with Barcelona and England too.
All three of the players have a goal or an assist in this game.
Gordon set-up Bellingham, while the Real Madrid midfielder got the assist for Kane's opener too.

Croatia 0-2 England
Over 30 minutes on the clock, and Croatia have failed to have a single touch in England's box. A poor showing from the host's so far.

Remember when Croatia were really good?
They've been awful so far.

With the game going as it has so far, and Kane 12 goals from 100, his team-mates might not expect to see many passes from him in the final third tonight.

Now attempts by Elliot Anderson and Harry Kane in quick succession.
England are hungry for more goals.

Thousands of kids in the stands.
And it's men against boys on the pitch.
England are all over Croatia.
'Lovely link-up play'published at 17:28 BST

Matt Upson
Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 Live at Stadion HNK RijekaUnbelievable how that is not 3-0.
Smooth again and lovely link-up play from England. Croatia are at sixes and sevens here.
CLOSE!published at 24 mins
Croatia 0-2 England
Anthony Gordon should have had a hat-trick by now!
Another big chance after Jude Bellingham's low cross into the box, but Gordon's finish from inside the six yard box is straight at the keeper.
England ought to be out of sight.
