90+3 mins

Into the final minute of normal time. Italy go long to Belotti, but Simon tidies up at the back.

Olmo takes it, but Berardi clears.

74 mins

72 mins

Azpilicueta gives away a foul in the Italian box, standing his ground as Donnarumma goes up for a high ball. 

The restart sees Italy break again through Berardi. He's tackled, but Simon has to act quickly to prevent a corner. Italy will have a throw-in instead.

Italy go all the way back to the keeper. 

70 mins

Spain have brought on Gerard Moreno for Oyarzabal - another striker.

Second half - 46 mins

Italy kick us off and we're back underway.

Both sides unchanged.

8:00am

Spain are the first team back out after halftime. They'll just want more of the same, it'll be very hard for them to concede if they carry on having upwards of 70 percent possession.

Italy follow, what changes will they make for the second half?

HALFTIME

There's no stoppage time, so that's the end of the first half.

Scoreless at the break, but Spain have by far had the better of Italy in the first 45 minutes.

45 mins

Foul called against Koke on Emerson - who was about to break down the left - and the Spain midfielder avoids a yellow card.

Italy's first real chance.

42 mins

Long ball over the top for Italy, but Simon comes off his line to head clear of the oncoming Immobile. 

Italy are pressing very high towards the end of the first half, both Bonucci and Chiellini are inside the Spain half.

But a foul is called against Immobile to hand the ball back to Spain.

39 mins

Foul called against Spain, and captain Busquets is not happy. And you can see why, Emerson's gone down looking for it on contact. 

Spain do win the ball back, as Jordi Alba crosses into the box, before Oyarzabal's left-footed shot is nowhere on target.

37 mins

34 mins

HUGE goalkick from Donnarumma catches Spain out at the back, but Immobile can't control the ball as Laporte clears for a throw-in.

Spain do win the ball though and surge forward. Dani Olmo takes a shot from outside the area, and Donnarumma can watch the ball sail over the crossbar.

28 mins

Pedri feeds Olmo on the edge of the area, and he runs straight into Chiellini.

Olmo stays down to try and win a free kick, but nothing from the ref.

Olmo, almost miraculously, gets up - unhurt.

26 mins

18 mins

Free kick called against Busquets for bringing down Barella. Great chance for Italy here, about 40 metres away from goal.

Insigne stands over the dead ball, he crosses into the box for Immobile, but Unai Simon gathers the ball for Spain.

17 mins

Spain break again as Pedri feeds Torres down the left. Jordi Alba looks for the overlap, but can't catch up with a pass from Olmo that rolls into touch.

Goal kick for Italy, and they can finally try and use the ball.

15 mins

13 mins

Chance for Spain! Pedri plays the incisive pass that finds Oyarzabal in the box! But he can't control the ball before Emerson clears. 

Great from Pedri - who's just 18 years old and at his first major tournamet.

12 mins

Spain are dictating terms now. Italy haven't touched the ball for a couple of minutes now, as Spain just wait for the chance to try and pick the lock.

Alba tries a ball in behind the Italian defence, but Chiesa is there to see off any threat.

10 mins

Spain are also looking to play the ball out from the back - their trademark possession-retaining style in full flow.

But they don't have anyone leading the line remember, as Oyarzabal drifts back into a playmaking role. Olmo looks like he's taken on the role of leading the line. 

Torres robs Barella of possession inside Italy's half, as Spain go wide to Oyarzabal on the right. Italy defend though and Spain will have a throw in.

It wouldn't have stood though, Chiesa was offside when the pass was played.

1 min

KICKOFF

We're away at Wembley! Spain get the ball rolling.

6:59am

Right then, the anthems are done and dusted! Kick off moments away!

6:55am

Italy have had a couple of scares in their warm-up, with goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma and defender Leonardo Bonucci suffering injury concerns.

Donnarumma was complaining with a hurt finger after saving a shot, while Bonucci appeared to have a hamstring issue.

Both have emerged from the tunnel though, so breathe easy, Italy fans.

6:47am

Well, well, well. The rain has stopped, and the sun is sneaking out onto Wembley.

The English summer has struck again, with the weather not playing ball above London and Wembley Stadium.

However, this isn't cricket, and it's more than possible to play in the rain!

6:15am

Here are the starting XIs. Neither team is changing away from their preferred shape of 4-3-3.

Spain have made the call to leave out striker Alvaro Morata, and deploying Mikel Oyarzabal as a false nine.

*****

Kia ora, good morning and welcome to Newshub's live updates of the first semi-final of Euro 2020, with Italy and Spain going head-to-head at London's Wembley Stadium.

After a thrilling tournament so far, we're down to the final four, with two continental giants meeting for a spot in the final.

Italy have won all five of their matches at Euro 2020 - the only side to have done so. In fact, Italy are unbeaten in their last 32 matches under the tutelage of manager Roberto Mancini.

Meanwhile, Spain started slowly, drawing against Sweden and Poland, before beating Croatia in the round of 16 and Switzerland from the penalty spot in the quarter-finals. 

These two sides last met in 2017, paired together in qualifying for the 2018 Football World Cup in Russia, with Spain winning both home and away legs. 

But Italy will draw inspiration from their last-16 win at Euro 2016, ending La Roja's bid for a third straight title with a 2-0 win in Saint-Denis, France.

The winners of this morning's clash will meet the winners of Thursday's highly anticipated encounter between England and Denmark.
