  1. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 63 mins

    Netherlands 0-0 Sweden

    Another brilliant save!

    The corner is lifted in towards Vivianne Miedema and the Arsenal striker heads it powerfully towards the top and centre of the net.

    Keeper Hadvig Lindahl gets her fingertips to it and pushes it onto the bar before the flag goes up for offside as Lineth Beerensteyn contests the rebound.

    Better from the Netherlands. They switch it from left to right before Lineth Beerensteyn's cross is blocked by Magdalena Eriksson.

    Corner.

    Vivianne Miedema gets stuck in and uses her strength to hold off two challengers. She's eventually tugged to the floor by her shirt by Elin Rubensson and wins a free-kick.

    That was a brilliant save.

    The line of the ball was going into the far corner but Sari van Veenendaal got down to well and so wide to tip the ball onto the post.

    A crucial save.

    Netherlands 0-0 Sweden

    It's punched clear by Sari van Deenendaal but a blocked shot falls to Nilla Fischer on the right-hand side of the box.

    She strikes it well, back across the goal and it bounces off the inside of the left post after a touch from the keeper. It rolls inches past two on-coming attackers too!

    This is the first time in the match the Dutch fans have toned the noise down. They're reduced to a polite clap as Sweden pile on the pressure.

    The yellow and blue supporters to our right are bouncing, though.

    Stina Blackstenius manages to bundle a corner off Dominique Bloodworth. Sweden are going to ping this straight in towards the keeper...

    Caroline Seger's performance has been surprising because she a quality player.

    Her distribution from midfield has not been good and she has given too many simple balls away.

    Netherlands 0-0 Sweden

    Desiree van Lunteren challenges Lina Hurtig to a sprint race down the right but it's the Swede who comes out on top.

    I wonder how long it will be before Shanice van de Sanden comes on?

    Netherlands 0-0 Sweden

    Caroline Seger gets caught in possession but nothing comes of it. Kosovare Asllani tries to break for Sweden and is fouled by Sherida Spitse on the left.

    The Dutch midfielder knew there was a counter-attack on and had to bring her down.

    Danielle van de Donk wins possession for the Dutch in midfield but a mistake from Dominique Bloodworth lets Stina Blackstenius in.

    She gets all the way into the box before Bloodworth recovers to make a crucial block. Sweden win a corner but a foul is given for a push from Lina Hurtig.

    Jill Roord has made a huge impact every time she's come on so it doesn't surprise me if Lieke Martens has an injury. Roord is an able replacement.

    Eight of the Netherlands’ 10 goals at the Women's World Cup have come in the second half, as have 10 of their 13 overall...

    Whilst making a dash for water supplies (it's incredibly sweaty up in the press box) a group of journalists were making second-half predictions.

    "We need a goal," cried one exasperated Swede.

    "I reckon 4-0 or 5-5." said another.

    Steady.

    Lieke Martens has been replaced by Jill Roord. She has come off the bench in every game in this tournament. Can she grab a goal?

    The fans are enjoying a half-time lights show. Hopefully that will burst some life into the Stade de Lyon.
