22:00 (IST)14 OCT 2017

Thanks for joining us again. We will be back again for more footballing action from the u17 world cup.

21:58 (IST)14 OCT 2017

The Iraqis gave a fight time and again but you have to say were a different class today.

21:57 (IST)14 OCT 2017

That's it. It's all over. 

England top the group and in some fashion.

21:56 (IST)14 OCT 2017

90+4' - Iraqi goalkeeper is down at the moment and that is eating into the final seconds.

21:55 (IST)14 OCT 2017

90+3' - This is turning into a practice session for the English team.

21:53 (IST)14 OCT 2017

4 minutes added on.

21:52 (IST)14 OCT 2017

88' - Foden with an effort on goal. Not exactly on goal you might say. That was off the mark. 

21:51 (IST)14 OCT 2017

England milking the clock at the moment.

21:48 (IST)14 OCT 2017

84' - Wow! Another great chance!

A lazy pass sees Foden intercept. He plays in Huson-Odoi and he again misses the target.

21:43 (IST)14 OCT 2017

83' - Conor Gallagher shown a yellow. 

Too casual on the ball and he is robbed of the ball by Dawood. And he in his effort to get that back clips the Iraqi forward.

21:41 (IST)14 OCT 2017

82' - Foden looks to get in Loader again but the keeper rushes out in time.

21:41 (IST)14 OCT 2017

81' - England break open the Iraqis again and Hudson-Odoi is played in. 

Another great opportunity but his shot goes off the post and out. This game could have ended 8-0 in favour of England.

21:39 (IST)14 OCT 2017

80' - England with the possession but not much movement vertically. Finally a bad ball from Conor Gallagher gives it away. 

But Latebeaudiere is there at the back to get the English back.

21:38 (IST)14 OCT 2017

78' - Great work from the boys in Green as Dawood and Bassam Shakir on the left. Finally, Muntadher Mohammed comes to join in. 

He cuts back in and takes a shot but that was never going anywhere near goal.

21:36 (IST)14 OCT 2017

77' - Action is back on. 

And Iraq look for a consolation. Whipped in by Muntadher Mohammed but that one just has too much on it for Dawood to get.

21:33 (IST)14 OCT 2017

A cooling down break ongoing at the moment.

21:33 (IST)14 OCT 2017

74' - Brilliant work from Sancho and he cuts it back for the onrushing Foden. 

Could and probably should have been 5 for England.

21:31 (IST)14 OCT 2017

72' - Guehi is taken off as Foden comes on. England with their final change of the game.

21:31 (IST)14 OCT 2017

71' - GOAAL!! ENGLAND WITH THE 4TH!

Loader played in through the Iraq backline and slots it cooly past the goalkeeper.

21:30 (IST)14 OCT 2017

70' - England with a FK in a dangerous position. Gibson goes down.

Hudson-Odoi with a great strike on goal but the keeper is equal to the task.

21:28 (IST)14 OCT 2017

69' - The corner is dealt with but England come back.

21:28 (IST)14 OCT 2017

68' - Corner for England.

Hudson-Odoi with a great cross from the right but put behind for a corner.

21:26 (IST)14 OCT 2017

67'-  England with a change now. Hudson-Odoi comes on for Gomes.

21:26 (IST)14 OCT 2017

66' - Loader looking to get to the end of a ball over the top. But that is cleared. Loader looks for a penalty as he goes down but the ref is not interested.

21:25 (IST)14 OCT 2017

65' - Iraq look to break but Latibeaudiere gets a vital touch in.

21:23 (IST)14 OCT 2017

64' - Iraq looking for a hurrah. 

They have a corner and this time Muntadher Mohammed with the delivery. In at the far post and Crellin again looks not so sure. Loses the ball first time but gathers it back.

21:22 (IST)14 OCT 2017

62' - Dawood shown the yellow for an elbow at the back of Sessegnon. 

That means that the striker is going to miss the next game if Iraq go through.

21:21 (IST)14 OCT 2017

61' - SANCHOOOOOO!!

No. Kept himself onside and got at the end of the through ball. He tries to curl it in at the far post. But that doesn't have enough curl on it.

21:19 (IST)14 OCT 2017

60' - England with a substitution as Kirby is taken off for Morgan Gibbs-White.

21:19 (IST)14 OCT 2017

58'- GOAAAL! ENGLAND AGAIN!

Sessegnon with a great run and he plays in Loader. The Iraqi defence have been ripped apart and Loader should be congratulated for keeping his cool. He rounded the keeper with ease and slotted it in.

21:17 (IST)14 OCT 2017

57' - GOAAAL! ENGLAND!

And finally Smith-Rowe gets his goal. Took down the ball. Played it to Gomes and continued his run. 

Gomes with a neat return ball and the Arsenal talent this time can poke it beyond the keeper.

21:16 (IST)14 OCT 2017

56' - Dawood looking dangerous. But his run is flagged offside.

21:14 (IST)14 OCT 2017

55' - Long ball into the England box from Al-Baqer. 

Crellin comes out again and this time keeps hold of the ball.

21:13 (IST)14 OCT 2017

54' - The action finally begins. 

Smith-Rowe down the right a low ball in but that is too close to the keeper who gathers with confidence.

21:11 (IST)14 OCT 2017

52' - Baqer is down as Loader came in late and tread on the defender's leg. 

And that's a yellow card offence.

21:11 (IST)14 OCT 2017

51' - ENG playing the ball around at the moment.

Sancho with some good tricks and cuts back in. But Iraq showing some rare discipline at the back.

21:10 (IST)14 OCT 2017

50' - Iraq look to attack down the left. But Sessegnon and co. are there. 

21:09 (IST)14 OCT 2017

49' - What a miss.

Dawood flicks on the header and Crellin should have had it. He makes a mess of things and. Muntadher Mohammed who just came on is on it and gets it on target but again Sessegnon there to block. 

The rebound falls to the onrushing Dawood and he should have kept that on target but his volley blazes over.

21:07 (IST)14 OCT 2017

47' - A couple of changes for Iraq and three-goal man - Mohammad Dawood comes on.

21:05 (IST)14 OCT 2017

46' - Kirby with some twists and turns down the England right. Iraq though stand tall.

21:05 (IST)14 OCT 2017

And we are off.

21:04 (IST)14 OCT 2017

The players are back on the field.

20:52 (IST)14 OCT 2017

And that is the last action of the first half. 

England takes a one-goal lead back into the dressing room but this could have been so much more.

20:50 (IST)14 OCT 2017

45+4' - Al-Baqer with the delivery and Latibeaudiere clears.

20:50 (IST)14 OCT 2017

45+3' - A free kick for Iraq and that one is played into a good area. Crellin comes out and punches but not convincingly. Iraq try to catch the unguarded goal but the English defenders are back and they clear for a corner.

20:48 (IST)14 OCT 2017

45+2' - Corner is cleared but England come back down the right again. 

Sessegnon flicks one over the defender and goes down as he looks to get at the end of it. But the referee gives nothing.

20:47 (IST)14 OCT 2017

45+1' - Again down the right and Smith-Rowe again. Headed out for a corner. 

20:47 (IST)14 OCT 2017

45' - Down the right again and Kirby this time fires one in from the byline.

Ibadi stretched to get that one out.

20:46 (IST)14 OCT 2017

45' - Smith-Rowe again causing some menace. Gets into space again but his cutback is straight at an Iraqi defender.

20:44 (IST)14 OCT 2017

43' - Gomes looks for a direct attempt and looked to Ronaldo-it straight at goal. But that caught a bit of curl and move off the mark.
