00:00Pitch very squeezed because of that high finish line, here's Bellingham, Grealish
00:11Arlo has come out to meet him, support from Hoskinen as well the defender
00:16Walker has found Gomez, around the corner for Grealish who's free and in and so is the ball
00:22and England are in front
00:23well they know they've got no room for error and they have fired Finland their first warning
00:31it was a fabulous move and a cool finish just wandering just there he is on the edge of the
00:36box and that ball there is brilliant outside the foot first bit of decent movement where
00:42they've got the ball to the player
00:48Arlo, space here for Jensen, he's got it free
00:53and he just couldn't control the final effort which went whizzing past Henderson's post
00:59Jensen it was who had the shot and it just took his his eye off the player outside him
01:04that's why he was a little bit narrow the high and wide the shot went
01:07nice
01:13Palmer linking with Walker once more he'll try and pick out Grealish comes to Bellingham Palmer
01:18wanted to hit it Palmer did hit it as well that came from a crowd of bodies that was a good save
01:24by Hrodeskin, it was he saw that late it's good play from Palmer in the first instance
01:29the way in a pass to Walker absolutely perfect this one here just could run on to it
01:35it's a bit fiddly at the moment isn't it
01:40Keskanen trying to be a bit more direct from a Finnish point of view
01:45Jurinen, space for Jensen if he can squeeze the ball to him he just delayed a little bit
01:51Schuller, now Keskanen
01:56it's a decent looking ball and it's a major miss from Frederik Jensen
02:01he can't believe he hasn't equalized for Finland
02:04well he'll look down at the ground and hopefully see a bubble
02:06absolute sitter but he's got to get his knee over that
02:12slip by Kamara has allowed Declan Rice to take over
02:16it's a powerful shot from the man to take it past Lukasz Hrodewski
02:21yeah one thing on his mind Declan Rice he's got to be pretty good to beat this goalkeeper
02:26and that channel he's gonna be going towards it Grudisch is there for backup
02:34into Watkins and Bellingham drawing the foul that's a free kick
02:39just look how deep Finnish back lines have to go because of that run from Watkins
02:44almost goes out of play but he keeps it in there big long ball all of a sudden
02:48they win a free kick on the edge of the box
02:50Alexander-Arnold, that's why
02:54what a hit
02:58a sensational strike from Trent Alexander-Arnold
03:02that Hrodewski just couldn't keep out and it's a goal that ensures that England is still in the race
03:09for automatic promotion
03:13Kamara
03:15Pukki
03:17trying to poke that out towards the right side Peltoluwa
03:20making himself available England are on the escape with Grudisch and then Watkins
03:26Oskar and backpedaling Rice is bounded into the box Watkins looking for Rice
03:35and England have sharpened up their act in the second half
03:39and taking the game away from the Finns
03:42it's a really good break
03:45and finished off by Declan Rice who's been one of their better performers
03:51Volta's delivery and it's too easy for Hoskinen to nudge in at the near post
04:01and just as things were looking rather rosy for England they were exposed by a simple set piece
04:07well it's a good delivery and it's a good header but
04:10should not have that space at the near post just see it just wanders in front of Watkins
04:23well they might not rival the Northern Lights or Lapland for Finland's biggest winter attraction
04:27but England's stars were at least aligned tonight
04:30but a welcome back to the game for England
04:33but England's stars were at least aligned tonight
04:36but a welcome display after a dark night against Greece with England's more
04:40conventional lineup providing greater balance and creativity
04:44it's finished in Helsinki, Finland one, England three
