HT: New Zealand 1-0 Scotland
Scotland might have feared the worse when they saw New Zealand stick 16 (SIXTEEN!) goals past Kenya yesterday.
But Chris Duncan's side, who are ranked 17th in the world, are more than holding their own against the defending champions.
New Zealand have edged possession and created more of the chances, but are only 1-0 ahead at half-time.
Last night these two nations played out a thriller in the men's tournament, with Scotland leading 5-1 before New Zealand fought back to earn a draw.
In the second half, can the Scottish women create the shock which their male counterparts came so close to?

And how well deserved. England really have worked faultlessly today.

Canada 2-1 Scotland (best-of-five matches)
Image source, Getty ImagesScotland are already assured of their spot in the quarter-finals after beating the Maldives and Uganda in their opening two ties.
So too are Canada.
With the last-eight ties decided by a draw, this is essentially a dead rubber. But pride and performance are certainly at stake.
Scotland won the opening mixed doubles through Adam Hall and Julie MacPherson, but lost the following two singles matches after Kirsty Gilmour and Callum Smith were beaten.
Now it is down to Julie MacPherson and Ciara Torrance to win the women's doubles and give Scotland a chance of clinching top spot.
That would then be down to Alexander Dunn and Adam Hall in the deciding men's doubles

Women's artistic team final
Ondine Achampong is the final one to go for England on vault and she has absolutely nailed that. It is HUGE - 14.150.
That just about seals it for England, they are top with 161.100.
Wales will now go on floor and Canada have vault to come but it's looking like a battle for second and third.

Georgia Godwin bags 12.550 for Australia on floor and that puts them, momentarily, on top.
But WOW. Local girl Alice Kinsella has had an absolutely incredible night - she has scored top on floor, second from top on beam and now she has absolutely smashed that vault to score 13.900. The smile on her face as she nails the landing says it all.
England have a two-point cushion at the top, can they hold it?

It's 12.600 on floor for Australia's Breanne Scott.
England's Georgia-Mae Fenton nails a good solid vault but just steps out on the landing and that will be a slight deduction. Is it enough to hold onto England's slender lead?
It is! 13.150 is Fenton's score and England have a 0.650 lead... for now.
