Full-time: Spain 1-0 Italy
Luis de la Fuente's side pick up all three points, but the scoreline doesn't give justice to Spain's display. They were dominant throughout and, had it not been for an inspired display from Italy captain Gianluigi Donnarumma, their margin of victory would have been greater. In the end, Riccardo Calafiori's own goal was all that separated the two sides, but it was enough to send Spain into the knockout stages and see them win the group as a result.

Crossbar!

Narrowly wide
16-year-old Yamal is inches away from finding the top corner. Instead, it goes just past the woodwork.

Donnarumma palms away
The captain is being kept busy - his next act is to put Morata's strike behind for a corner. From the set-piece, Le Normand's header is cleared off the line by Cambiaso.

How will Italy respond?
The Azzurri have to find a way to put Spain under pressure in the final third.

Spain in front
La Roja have the goal their performance deserves, but it comes fortuitously. Calafiori can do nothing as Donnarumma gets a hand to a cross, and the ball bounces into the back of the net off the defender's knee.
53'
Donnarumma saves
Pedri strikes from distance this time. However, it is a straight at the Paris Saint-Germain shot-stopper, who gathers at the second attempt.
52'
Close!
Another chance for Spain goes begging. Pedri is again unmarked in the penalty area and is found by Cucurella's cut-back, but he can't steer it into the bottom corner. A let-off for Italy.
50'
Two changes for Italy
Spalletti decided to mix up his midfield at the break, bringing on Bryan Cristante and Andrea Cambiaso. That has had little impact on proceedings so far as Spain continue to dominate.

Half-time: Spain 0-0 Italy
The first half ends goalless, which will disappoint the Spaniards more than the Italians. Gianluigi Donnarumma was his side's best player before the break, denying Álvaro Morata, Pedri and Fabián Ruiz as La Roja kept up the pressure. Spain, though, were unable to find the opener despite their dominance, meaning Italy still have hope for the second half.

Chiesa over
A first shot of the opening period for Italy, although the winger's shot is never troubling Simón. That is a sign of life from the reigning champions offensively.

Donnarumma gathers
Ruiz tries his luck once more but, while his latest attempt is on target, it rolls into Donnarumma's hands. Spain are keeping the pressure on as we approach half-time.

Wild from Ruiz
The midfielder's volley flies over the crossbar from outside the box.

Yet to register a shot
Simón has not been troubled between the Spanish sticks thus far.

Rodri wide
Donnarumma does not need to intervene on this occasion as he watches the Manchester City midfielder's shot sail past the post.

Donnarumma to the rescue
Again, the Italian captain keeps his team on level terms, tipping Ruiz's fierce drive from distance behind for a corner.
24'
Morata denied
A mazy solo run from Yamal releases Morata but, under pressure from an opponent, the skipper goes to far wide and his attempt is ultimately kept out by Donnarumma.
