LIVE England v Wales and USA v Iran: As things stand England and USA will progress from group B. Follow the closing stages of both matches here...

Neco Williams for Wales has been left concussed after being hit in the face with the ball. Will lead to a lot of stoppage time. On comes Roberts in an early sub.Neither game a classic so far. USA play some nice high-tempo football, but perhaps lack a quality striker. Sargent does well though and holds it up well after a cross and lays off to Weah but he blazes over.England 0 Wales 0. USA 0 Iran 0Nasty tackle by Dan James on Stones, high on the ankle, expect more of that in this derby game.

In the other game, Dest runs past three players but again his shot is blocked. Iran not giving much away.Timothy Weah is through on goal in the box after Sargent’s shot was blocked. But he heads it without much power, surely should have let that drop to his foot.Another dangerous cross, this time from Weah is blocked again as it was heading towards Pulisic.Ball over the top finds Taremi for Iran in the box but he sloppily fails to find Azmoun, good chance wasted.

In the other game, a few good crosses for USA put Iran under pressure but they can’t create a great chance.Foden takes shot from distance but he drags it wide. Twentieth England cap but only two goals so far, can he score today?Chance for USA but Pulisic can’t get any pace on the header. USA dominating possession as Iran sit back, they only need a draw unless Wales surprise against England.
