Welcome to the Evening Standard's Euro 2020 qualifying coverage of Bulgaria vs England LIVE in Sofia tonight.
England's 6-0 win over Bulgaria was marred by racist abuse from sections of the home crowd at Stadion Vasil Levski.
The build-up to the game had been dominated by fears that there could be incidents of racism and England staff had to alert match officials to it during the first half in Sofia.
The Croatian referee Ivan Bebek spoke to England captain Harry Kane and a stadium announcement, calling for the racist chanting to stop, was made over the public address system in the 28th minute.
The match was halted for a second time in the 43rd minute before resuming and reaching half-time, at which point the visitors led 4-0 thanks to goals from Marcus Rashford, Ross Barkley (two) and Raheem Sterling.
The game continued as Sterling and Harry Kane added a goal apiece after the break, but this match will be remembered for the shameful scenes in the stands.
