    I think Northern Ireland have been comfortable enough, bar an odd loose pass.

    Jackie Burns won her 50th cap in the last window against Portugal and she was presented with a shirt before kick-off at Windsor Park.

    She's pictured here with manager Tanya Oxtoby and Irish FA president Conrad Kirkwood.

    That's a nice touch.

    The last five minutes from Northern Ireland have been the most exciting. It's a good way to go into the break. It's been positive.

    Republic of Ireland 0-0 France

    Plenty of chances in the opening 45 minutes, but no goals to keep you informed about.

    Will either team make changes at the break to try and help them find the opening goal or will both managers stick with the same XI? We'll soon see...

    It's been a lively enough game at Windsor Park but it's still goalless.

    And now Rebecca Holloway stings the gloves of Hodzic from inside the area!

    This is a strong end to the first half from Northern Ireland!

    Republic of Ireland 0-0 France

    The away side's defence have been the busier in the last five minutes, but the Republic of Ireland haven't found an opening goal despite the pressure.

  8. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 18:45 British Summer Time 16 July

    Northern Ireland 0-0 Bosnia-Herzegovina

    Joely Andrews smashes the crossbar!

    Casey Howe and Keri Halliday find the midfielder, who curls it towards the top corner.

    The keeper was beaten! So close!

  9. CLOSE!published at 18:43 British Summer Time 16 July

    Northern Ireland 0-0 Bosnia-Herzegovina

    Milena Nikolic and Maya Jelcic link up well and the latter squeezes the ball through!

    It's just too long and Burns can gather.

    That was really nice play.

    We're into the final five minutes of the first half.

    Will we see a goal before the break?

    There's not been much to write home about in this first half where Northern Ireland had a lot of the ball but haven't done much with it.

    Bosnia-Herzegovina have looked dangerous on the counter-attack, but have yet to test Jackie Burns.

    A silver lining for Northern Ireland fans will be that it was a similar case in Zenica the last time these two sides met before a frantic second half produced four goals in a 3-1 win for Tanya Oxtoby's side

    Northern Ireland 0-0 Bosnia-Herzegovina

    Rebecca McKenna, who has been really lively so far, links up well with Joely Andrews and the full-back finds Kerry Beattie in the area.

    The flag goes up for offside just as the striker blasts her effort at Hodzic.

  13. Postpublished at 18:37 British Summer Time 16 July

    Northern Ireland 0-0 Bosnia-Herzegovina

    Casey Howe finds some space on the right and sprints inside.

    She has a go from 25 yards but it's straight at Hodzic.

    That's better from the hosts.

  14. PENALTY APPEALpublished at 18:36 British Summer Time 16 July

    Republic of Ireland 0-0 France

    Katie McCabe's corner is headed on by Caitlin Hayes with claims that it struck the hand of Maelle Lakrar on its path towards goal.

    Definitely one to watch back.

    It's important Northern Ireland stay solid in defence after the last few minutes.

  16. CLOSE!published at 18:35 British Summer Time 16 July

    Northern Ireland 0-0 Bosnia-Herzegovina

    Jelcic has another chance! She could have had a hat-trick!

    The Inter Milan forward breaks into the area but her shot is high and wide.

    She's been really bright for Bosnia.

  17. CLOSE!published at 18:34 British Summer Time 16 July

    Northern Ireland 0-0 Bosnia-Herzegovina

    Jackie Burns gives the ball after racing out of her goal and that allowed Jelcic a shot on goal about 40 yards out.

    Thankfully for the hosts the forward doesn't really connect with it, and it just rolls into the area for Burns to collect.

    In true Jackie Burns style, she has a huge smile on her face throughout the whole thing. The most relaxed person in Windsor Park.

    Republic of Ireland 0-0 France

    The unmarked Selma Bacha's curling strike from outside the box is narrowly over the crossbar.

    This has been an entertaining game so far with plenty of chances at both ends.

    Northern Ireland 0-0 Bosnia-Herzegovina

    Brenna McPartlan gives the ball and that allows Maja Jelcic a shot on goal, but it's easily held by Jackie Burns.

    No harm done.

    Ruesha Littlejohn robs Sandy Baltimore of the ball and passes to Julie-Ann Russell, who misjudges her resulting pass.

    France try to counter once again, but to no avail.
