    Another crunching challenge in midfield. This has been a bruising encounter as Line Jensen ends up in a heap.

    She actually got sandwiched between two players there, with Nadine Prohaska almost head-butting her in the shins. Nasty one - but thankfully she is back up on her feet.

    That was a great cut-back to Harder. She got a good shot on target and Manuel Zinsberger managed to produce a good save.

    Signs that the game is opening up now, we need it to. Denmark concoct a swift break down their right, the ball is cut back for skipper Pemille Harder in space, maybe 16 yards out. She rattles off a powerful left-footed shot but Manuela Zinsberger is always behind it and turns it over the top.

    Austria's best attacking threat is coming from Laura Feiersinger, who has had an excellent tournament. A really strong runner on the ball, hard to stop. An indicator of the tricky conditions now in Breda as the ball is blown away from Feiersinger as she shapes up to take a free-kick!

    Are we going to go to penalties again? Not much goalmouth action so far in this half, but hang on!

    Nadia Nadim - supreme in the air for Denmark - heads on a corner, Simone Sorensen gets there just in front of the keeper and helps it on but Manuela Zinsberger makes a fine stop.

    It's interesting more and more countries are investing in women's teams. With the likes of Germany and France going out, we shouldn't be too surprised. It's great overall for women's football.

    Sarah Puntigam, who missed the penalty for Austria in the first half, now gets whacked in the face. Bleeding from the mouth but she'll be OK to carry on. Denmark make a change though, on comes Frederikke Thogersen for the booked Maja Kildemoes.

    Almost genius from Sarah Zadrazil, who pulls out the lofted pass over the top, Nina Burger is momentarily in on goal for Austria but a Danish defender snakes out a boot to make the block.

    Good crowd in the Rat Verlegh Stadion in Breda, but it's a full-on sell-out in Enschede for the Netherlands v England game later on. Booming.

    Denmark have started the second half on the ball but again, no way through the massed Austrian ranks.

    Away we go again.

    Cecilie Sandvej has replaced Line Roddik for Denmark. The Danes have lost all of their previous semi-finals by the way...

    Netherlands v England (19:45 BST)

    Under two hours until England's semi-final now. We will bring you full coverage of that game on a separate page so don't worry, you won't miss a thing.

    Denmark have a trend of growing into matches. Austria are doing a great job on Harder and Nadim however. They'll be the happier at HT

    The replays of Austria's penalty from Sarah Puntigam make for ugly viewing. She leaned right back and skied it.

    Austria manager Dominik Thalhammer will be the happiest when they go in at half-time. His team have looked the most dangerous without testing the keeper.

    Denmark realise they're in for a real test.

    Nil-nil at the break then. Interesting to see all of the Austria bench line up to shake the hand of Sarah Puntigam as she came off, after her penalty miss. Solidarity.

    Austria ending the half on top, a fine ball in is met by Virginia Kirchberger but she can only head the ball wide.

    The medical teams are still looking at Nicole Billa on a stretcher by the dugout area. I'm surprised they haven't taken her inside. Anyway, Austria attack now and win a free-kick - Sarah Puntigam whips it in and Katharina Schiechtl heads on, but there's no power.

    Austria have missed a penalty and now lost a key player to injury in a tricky first half. But they are still level.

    I think Kildemoes caught her with her back studs. There didn't look like there was much in it, but it appears painful. It's really disappointing for her. No intent - one of those things.

  20. ouch!

    Austria lost a key player to injury against Spain and it looks like it might have happened again. Yes, Nicole Billa is in tears and then on a stretcher, her game is over. She kicked the foot of Maja Kildemoes as the Dane cleared a bouncing ball, pretty innocent challenge. On comes Nadine Prohaska.

    Billa is absolutely distraught. Head in hands.
