Evening all and welcome to Poland v Italy in Nations League Group A1!

That's us then; goodnight and thanks for keeping me company.

Neither manager will mind that; Italy stay top of the group, a point ahead of Poland and Netherlands; the former lead the latter by a goal scored.

Full-time: Poland 0-0 Italy

Verratti switches play out to Keandown the left, and he drags the ball down the side of Glick, snapping back a cross that Caputo misses, on the stretch, by a toenail.

There'll be three added minutes; Acerbi is booked for a foul I did not see.

Excellent from Poland, breaking down the right with Karbownik, and when he crosses, Krychowiak turns the ball back adroitly to Linetty, who collects beautifully, taking the ball down and into stride, before lashing a shot into the side-netting.

Dearie me. Grosicki streaks into a break and Poland look dangerous, then he works the ball right and Karbownik is lost in the supermarket, unable to decide what to do or how to do it, hanging on to the ball for so long that once he does shift it, three players are offside. That is extremely symbolic.

Caputo replaces Belotti.

Linetty replaces Lewandowski and Karbownik replaces Jozwiak.

Lucatelli replaces Barella.

Nice from Italy, Pellegrini dashing down the right, but Belotti can't make anything of it and extracts his revenge on Moder, knocking him over and getting booked. He's now suspended for the Netherlands game coming up; smart lad.

Klich has Lewandowski ahead of him but a shooting lane opens up so he plops a shot directly into Donnarumma's midriff.

Italy sweep the ball out wide, Verratti to Barella, but when he cuts back for Kean, the new arrival trips over his own fat feet.

Not as far as I can ascertain. Wikipedia says: "As already mentioned, green, in the first Italian tricolour cockades, symbolized natural rights, namely social equality and freedom.After various events it came to 7 January 1797, the date of the adoption of the tricolour flag by the Cispadane Republic, the first Italian sovereign state to make use of it. During the Napoleonic period, the three colours acquired a more idealistic meaning for the population: the green represents hope, the white represents faith and the red represents love."

I've become slightly obsessed with the shade of green in the Italy flag. Does it have a name?

Change for Italy, Kean replacing Chiesa. Chiesa has had a alright game and looked more likely than most to conjure something, but he also missed by the far the game's best chance, so.

Emerson for Belotti for Barella, who can't find a decent crossing angle so goes back to Florenzi and the move breaks down.

This is lovely! Chiesa takes a terrible first touch, but just as he's in the process of chastising himself the opportunity arises for him to get back on the ball, rolled in by Florenzi, and this time he quickly digs out a fine cross at which Emerson launches himself, sending a diving header just wide.

But Grosicki then drills across the corner and no one can get anywhere near it.
