England midfielder Jordan Nobbs has Arsenal's first proper shot on target, from just outside the box, but it's straight at the keeper.

Everton boss Andy Spence, being full-time now, under the mentorship of David Unsworth, seems to have come on leaps and bounds in terms of the management side of the job and how to manage players.

The hosts' Chloe Kelly tries her luck from range with a bouncing effort, but it's wide.

Louise Quinn slides in with an important intervention in the Arsenal penalty area to hook the ball away from Everton's Courtney Sweetman-Kirk, who was lurking nearby.

There's not much between these two sides so far, although Everton have had the only real efforts at goal.

Arsenal's best move so far sees Kim Little look to find room to shoot at the far post, but the hosts defend the situation well in the end, as Chloe Kelly tracks back.

Now Danielle Turner's left-footed shot is deflected wide for the Toffees' first corner, but keeper Sari van Veenendaal punches the resulting delivery away.

Danielle Turner keeps the ball in play near the corner flag for Everton and drills in a low cross from the right, but Arsenal boot it clear.

Everton have to be very careful with Arsenal's Beth Mead - a natural right footer - cutting in from the left, and Heather O'Reilly cutting inside on the other flank.

They'll both be go-to players for Arsenal today.

Arsenal look to release Danielle Carter over the top, but Jordan Nobbs' ball is a bit too heavy and bounces through to Everton keeper Kirstie Levell.

This first semi-final is live on the BBC Red Button service, as well as online and on the BBC Sport app.

After a moving minute's applause to mark 29 years since the Hillsborough disaster, the hosts Everton get this semi-final under way.

The Toffees are all in blue, while Arsenal are also in their traditional colours, red and white.

Everton boss Andy Spence tells BBC TV: "It's been a good cup run so far and we take a lot of confidence from our cup run but also our league games so far.

"Arsenal's team, with established players, you'd expect them to feel as if they're favourites.

"But we're certainly confident of where we're at and what we can do."

Who do you think will go through to 5 May's Wembley final?

It's already been a day to remember for English women's team sport, after a dramatic Netball gold at the Commonwealth Games saw England win their first major title.

But the Roses beating overwhelming favourites Australia in their own back yard with a last-second winner won't be the only history made today.

That's because both semi-finals of the Women's FA Cup are about to be broadcast live on BBC TV for the first time.

Let's have a look at what's coming up over the next five hours or so...
