England Under-21s are being held to a goalless draw by Sweden Under-21s in their Euro 2015 Group B clash at the Andruv Stadion in Olomouc.
Following a lively but largely uneventful start, Sweden were almost caught out when Will Hughes slid a ball through to Nathan Redmond in the 17th minute, but goalkeeper Patrik Carlgren was quick off his line to boot clear.
Both sides then began pushing forward and a flurry of chances followed, as Simon Tibbling weighed in with two efforts while Redmond and Harry Kane threatened at the other end, the latter a dangerous diving header that flew just wide.
Tom Carroll was next to try his luck with a 20-yard lob just after the half-hour mark, but this failed to trouble Carlgren, while Kane fired a tame free kick into the arms of the Swedish stopper on the stroke of half time.
Sweden had the last say before the break, Isaac Kiese Thelin heading straight at Jack Butland from an unmarked position eight yards out, but neither side could break the deadlock before the whistle.
