That knock on the door is getting louder.

Kim Little shows her class to create some space in the box with a superb turn, but her left-foot shot is tipped over the bar by Hedvig Lindahl.

"We're forcing them to defend and it's been a good start to the second half."

The visitors show great patience around the edge of the Sweden box and eventually set up Leanne Crichton for a shot. Her drive is powerful but again it's straight at the goalkeeper.

Scotland finally get upfield and earn a free-kick but Kim Little's delivery is nodded tamely into the arms of goalkeeper Hedvig Lindahl by Jenny Beattie.

The Swedes clearly skipped on the half-time snacks as they look just as hungry for goals after the interval. The first few minutes of the second half sees them camped in the Scotland half.

We're under way again in Gothenburg. A huge 45 minutes up ahead for Scotland.

John McEnerney - Sweden are 2 well organised for Scotland, play it clever & leave it for the playoffs!

Scotland's chances of grabbing an automatic qualifying spot are looking slim as the sides enjoy a half-time cuppa, but Anna Signeul will be hoping to inspire a second-half turnaround.

A 3-1 win does it for the Scots. Well, the Swedes have their goal, now for three from the Scots...

The referee signals the end of the first half.

Gemma Fay produces a moment of magic to deny Sweden what looks a certain goal.

A ball in from the left somehow evades the visiting defence and Lotta Schelin appears to have a tap-in at the back post, but Scotland goalkeeper Fay scrambles across and makes a stunning block.

Defender Ifeoma Dieke is off getting treatment for a bloody nose as the Swedes probe around the penalty area but the Scots stand firm and repel the threat.

Lotta Schelin tests Gemma Fay with a dig from the angle but the offside flag was already up.

There isn't a great deal to choose between the sides in general play, but it's the final third where the home side look the sharper - and that's where it counts.

Scotland continue to hunt for a way back into this vital World Cup qualifier but a Kim Little corner is easily mopped up by the home defence.

Scotland goalkeeper Gemma Fay does well to deny Lotta Schelin as the Swede causes havoc in the visitors' penalty area.

"I'm sure Anna Signeul will be hoping to get Kim Little on the ball a lot more."

Jane Ross again does well down the right to escape a defender and knock a dangerous ball across the face of goal, but there's no-one in dark blue to apply the finish.

We're almost midway through the first half in Gothenburg and Scotland have it all to do.

The Scotland defence is struggling to contain this Sweden front-line, who are having plenty of joy down the right flank. They win another corner but this time it comes to nothing.

Sweden hit the post as Lotta Schelin latches on to a through ball and rounds goalkeeper Gemma Fay, but thankfully for the Scots, her strike comes back off the upright.
