Just as it was after 45 minutes in this afternoon's first semi-final, it's goalless at the break.

There'll be a minimum of one minute added on at the end of this half.

Both sides have had one terrific chance each to take the lead, with Fran Kirby going very close early on for Chelsea and Man City's Nikita Parris slotting wide a few minutes ago.

It's been pretty even up until now, as half-time approaches.

This time next week, Chelsea will be in Women's Champions League semi-final first-leg action, against holders Lyon of France.

It's a big fortnight for Emma Hayes' side.

It could - and really should - be 1-0 to Man City.

Chelsea keeper Ann-Katrin Berger hesitates at the back and allows Nikita Parris to bustle through, and Parris has a clear sight of goal from a fairly tight angle... But she drags it wide across the face of goal.

The net was gaping!

That was really clever football. I thought it was just going to nestle into the bottom corner. It was a good bit of play from Manchester City - and Georgia Stanway has the ability to do that.

Man City's Georgia Stanway turns neatly on the edge of the area and unleashes a pacey, low shot that bounces just wide.

West Ham boss Matt Beard tells the BBC Red Button:

"We showed immense character. Sometimes maybe it is just your day.

"The main thing is we're there. I'm immensely proud of everyone at the club."

To remind you, these sides are playing for a place in Saturday, 4 May's final at Wembley.

Already there are West Ham, who narrowly got past Reading in a dramatic first semi-final earlier.

With so many of his England stars on show in this match, it's no surprise to see national team boss Phil Neville in the crowd.

Chelsea's first corner is blocked behind for another, but the second sails long beyond the far post.

Chelsea force a corner, which Karen Carney will take on their right flank.

It's so difficult to call, this game. Manchester City and Chelsea are two very good footballing sides. They're both tactically so astute and both can change within a game too.

I'd say the atmosphere at the Academy Stadium hasn't yet been as noisy as the tense, slightly heated stuff we heard at times from the stands at a busy Adams Park earlier, where West Ham beat Reading on penalties.

This game hasn't really sparked in to life yet either.

Chelsea keeper Ann-Katrin Berger's clearance is charged down by Georgia Stanway, but bounces behind for a goal kick, slightly fortunately for the German.

Sophie Ingle slides in late on City's Jill Scott in the middle of the park.

That'll be an interesting battle, between those two, this afternoon.

Fran Kirby knows that was a massive opportunity to make it 1-0.

You'd have backed her to score from there... She's normally so, so clinical.

Fran Kirby has a huge chance to open the scoring, as she is set up perfectly by Ramona Bachmann and she's one-on-one with Karen Bardsley... But the England keeper makes the save with her feet!

Caroline Weir's shot from the left is blocked, after a promising Man City move. The hosts look confident, in these early stages.

Man City & Chelsea are meeting in the Women's FA Cup semi-finals for the fourth time in five seasons.

They've never met in the final, and Man City have never beaten Chelsea in this competition.

Including the WSL League Cup, this is their seventh domestic semi-final meeting since 2014.
