End of 2nd Half
FT
Full-time: Germany move four points clear at the top of Group J thanks to this convincing victory over Iceland, with Serge Gnabry, Antonio Rudiger, Leroy Sane and finally Timo Werner registering on the scoresheet.
90'
Iceland sub: Baldursson comes on for Palsson. Fair play to the home fans, who haven't stopped shouting and singing all night.
90'
Four minutes of added time to play!
89'
GOAL! Iceland 0-4 Germany (Timo Werner): Werner finally gets on the scoresheet! It's a neat goal too as his shot crashes off the post but spins over the line.

86'
Kehrer requires treatment after a clash of heads with Gudjohnsen and that may well force the German defender off.
83'
Werner's frustrations grow as he's flagged offside. In this creative Germany side, he may well get another opportunity tonight but you get the feeling his confidence is shattered.
80'
Subs: Iceland's Albert Gudmundsson makes way for Andri Gudjohnsen for the final 10 minutes, while Florian Wirtz comes on for Goretzka.
76'
Musiala, who is certainly one to watch in the future, dances towards goal and sees his shot deflected behind for another corner.
75'
Germany have had 71 per cent of possession tonight - almost 600 passes completed!
72'
Save! Gundogan tries to get in on the act but goalkeeper Halldorsson comes to Iceland's rescue once again. The home side are clearly tiring and I wouldn't rule out another goal or two for Germany.
71'
Iceland subs: Jon Dagur Porsteinsson and A Sigurdsson are on for the hosts, with Johan Gudmundsson and Johannesson coming off.
68'
It has been another night to forget in front of goal for the Chelsea forward...
66'
Double save! Another chances and goes for Werner as he doesn't get the necessary power to beat Halldorsson, who jumps back to his feet quickly to deny Havertz!
63'
Goal ruled out! A delightful strike from Gortezka hits the back of the net - but this one isn't going to count either - offside!
61'
Oh my, that's a sitter! Musiala's fine pass leaves Werner with what looks a simple finish but with the goal gaping he spoons his effort over the bar!
60'
Yellow card! Palsson finally goes into the book for an accumulation of fouls.
59'
Germany subs: That will be Sane's last meaningful action as he's replaced by Jamal Musiala, while Robin Gosens comes on for Niklas Sule.
56'
GOAL! Iceland 0-3 Germany (Leroy Sane): Havertz, take note! The angle is against Sane but he blasts a shot into the roof of the net following a Goretzka pass. Unstoppable!

Goal

Germany
55'
Miss! Would you believe it! Germany carve open the Iceland defence on the counter-attack but Havertz, with the goal at his mercy after brilliant work by Werner, inexplicably fires wide!
53'
Much, much better from Iceland since the restart; they're moving the ball a lot quicker.
