Play is stopped so that Ingrid Systad Engen can receive attention from the physio for what looks like a head injury.

Norway are going for the jugular as they look to capitalise on Nigeria's misfortune by flooding forward once more.

Caroline Graham Hansen beats one player but she is stopped in her tracks by Chidinma Okeke before the teenager springs clear with the ball.

That will do her confidence the world of good.

Faith Michael is stretchered off to warm applause by the crowd and she is replaced by 18-year-old Chidinma Okeke.

We hope she makes a speedy recovery.

It seems like quite a bad injury and Faith Michael has remained on the turf after colliding with her goalkeeper as she attempted to clear the ball.

The stretcher is being called for and this is worrying for the Falcons.

Norway nearly have a fourth but Faith Michael gets the faintest of touches on Ingrid Wold's cross to just make it difficult for Lisa-Marie Utland to nod in her second.

Impressive defending but she looks like she may have hurt herself in the process

There are no changes to either side at the start of the second period and Nigeria now have 43 minutes to respond.

Leading with a three-goal advantage, Norway get us back under way...

Encouraging words, John!

Did you know - Nigeria haven't scored in the first half of any of their last 14 matches at the Women's World Cup.

Sounds like they're definitely a second half team!

England manager Phil Neville and captain Steph Houghton appeared very relaxed at their press conference earlier, to preview their game against Scotland.

Someone asked if they get along ok.

"We get on alright, don't we?" Houghton asked nervously.

Cue sniggers all round.

Remember when England's men lost against Iceland at Euro 2016?

Well we've travelled back to the same site - Nice's Allianz Rivera - to speak to the managers of the home nations who go head-to-head in Group D on Sunday.

Scotland's Shelley Kerr and England's Phil Neville have been speaking about team selection.

Kerr has the luxury of a fully fit 23-strong squad, while Neville has said the Lionesses have a couple of knocks. He'll hand late calls to forward Toni Duggan, who has had a thigh issue, and defender Demi Stokes who has missed training with a knee problem.

Nigeria started well and posed a threat down the right hand side, but Norway grew into the game and have been potent in front of goal.

The Norwegian's have had two shots on target and they lead 3-0. Is there any way back for Nigeria?

Titus Ozulumba: Let's face it! The early few minutes proves that Nigeria did not have a good preparation for the World Cup! Shame to the NFF for their insufficient approach to the women's game! Even the friendly preparations where humiliating!

Bhavina: Norway are miles ahead of most other teams at this FIFAWWC2019. Playing some great football and ruthless in front of goal.

The referee brings the half to an end and Norway are in total control of this one.

Chelsea defender Maren Mjelde fires the free-kick narrowly over the bar and Nigeria escape without conceding another goal.

Norway are threatening to add a fourth but Francisca Ordega lunges in to foul Guro Reiten just outside the penalty area.

That was a pretty desperate tackle and she goes into the book.

FYI - Norway have won all 16 of their previous Women's World Cup games when leading by two or more goals.

Can Nigeria end their run?

Nigeria go close to pulling one back but Norway scramble the ball clear.

Finally, the Falcons' supporters are off their seats but their team are unable to capitalise on some poor Norwegian defending.
