The FA will continue to enforce their ban on bringing national flags to Wembley ahead of England's clash with Brazil on Saturday night.
Gareth Southgate's side are currently preparing for the friendly showdown as they ramp up their preparations for the European Championships later in the year.
England are among the favourites to win that competition but Brazil will be a good way of seeing how far Southgate's side have come.
Brazil aren't the brilliant team of old but remain one of the best sides on the planet, with manager Dorival Junior possessing superstars such as Raphinha, Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo in his ranks.

Fans from all over the world are set to tune in to watch the contest at Wembley.
And the Daily Mail say the FA will continue to enforce their ban on bringing national flags to the famous ground, besides those involved in the match.
Police and stewards have been instructed to confiscate any flags or symbols that represent countries other than England or Brazil, it is claimed.
The ban was introduced before England's narrow 1-0 victory over Australia back in October in the wake of the Hamas terrorist attacks.
Aston Villa forward Ollie Watkins scored the only goal of the game in the 57th minute to give Southgate's side the win.
The FA made the decision to ban flags because they wanted to avoid possible conflict between pro-Israel and pro-Palestine groups.
The Premier League and English Football League have introduced similar bans domestically.
However, they aren't enforced as stringently given how many visiting fans from all over the world often bring flags and symbols to represent their own countries.
On the subject of the St George's flag, there has been controversy surrounding the new England home shirt.
On the back of the strip, the emblem has been changed using purple and blue horizontal stripes, instead of the normal red colours.
Nike won't be changing the design, despite the backlash.
But Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer wants the sportswear giants to 'reconsider' that decision.
“I’m a big football fan, I go to England games, men and women’s games, and the flag is used by everybody," Starmer told The Sun.
"It is a unifier. It doesn’t need to be changed. We just need to be proud of it.
“So, I think they should just reconsider this and change it back.

"I’m not even sure they can properly explain why they thought they needed to change it in the first place.”
Meanwhile, there has been talk of Southgate potentially leaving his position as England manager once Euro 2024 is over.
The former Middlesbrough boss has been linked with a move to Manchester United amid the ongoing uncertainty over Erik ten Hag.
But defender Harry Maguire has revealed England players want Southgate to stay on until the next World Cup at the earliest.
“We want to be successful in the Euros. We are not looking at the World Cup — the Euros are our main focus," he said.

“And if Gareth’s the man to make us be successful then we want him to stay as long as possible. He has the respect of the players and everyone who has worked under him.
“Being England boss is so tough. It’s one of the world’s most scrutinised jobs.
“All you can look at is where we were before he took over and where we are now. Everyone will say, ‘Yeah, but we’ve got better players now’.
“But in previous years we had great players and haven’t been successful.
“He does deserve a lot of credit — he has taken us a long way.
“If you speak to anyone they will speak highly of Gareth’s management tactically but also his man-management.”
