Match of the Day Live

Euro 2012

Croatia v Spain

Duration: 3 hours

First broadcast: on BBC One HDLatest broadcast: on BBC One Yorks & Lincs

Gary Lineker introduces live Euro 2012 coverage as the final round of Group C matches gets underway. Tonight's featured game is expected to be Croatia against Spain, although results in previous matches could mean that the Republic of Ireland versus Italy is shown instead.

The Spanish are the reigning World Cup winners and European champions, and are chasing an unprecedented hat-trick of major titles. They qualified with a flawless record, and can call upon some of the finest midfielders in world football, including 2010 hero Andres Iniesta and influential playmaker Xavi.

This will be Croatia's final tournament under the stewardship of Slaven Bilic, a guitar-playing law graduate familiar to English fans following playing spells with West Ham and Everton. At Euro 2008 they suffered a heart-breaking quarter-final exit, with star player Luka Modric missing in a penalty shoot-out defeat to Turkey. The Tottenham star will be desperate to make amends for his country this summer. Show less
