No need for stoppage time because NOTHING HAPPENED.
As the clock hits 45, the half-time whistle goes.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
Slovakia need a Clinton Morrison basically.

Slovakia are having a good spell right before half-time, Sweden look tired, it is a hot day.
Slovakia are missing that out and out goal scorer and target man, the one who stays in the box and wants to score goals - Ondrej Duda is not that player, he wants to keep coming out of the box.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
Slovakia are dominating possession. Not Spain style but 58.7% still. They're doing nearly all the attacking now but not doing much with it...
...until this chance.
Marek Hamsik hits a first-time effort from about 22.265982 yards but it's over the bar.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
I just let out a proper audible sigh there. Four minutes to the break.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
This does strike me as one of those kind of games where a player just scores a 35-yard thunderbolt out of nowhere. Let's hope.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
Almost a chance from the corner. There's some pinball, not confident defending, but Juraj Kucka's shot is blocked.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
Corner to Slovakia now, won by Robert Mak. This is a better spell from them now.

Richard: This is a poor game between two average sides. Neither want to attack or have the quality to unlock a defence.
Kev: I’ve backed Berg to score first goal, I think this game could be 72hrs long and it would still be 0-0, dreadful game.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
Almost something from Marek Hamsik. He latches onto a ball in the box but his first touch is too heavy and he slips over after a tiny nudge from Marcus Danielson.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
A colleague has suggested these teams just shake hands at half-time and call it a draw.

Robert Mak has been quiet for Slovakia, he was good against Poland but he has been quiet today. You would want to see more of him.
Slovakia are causing some problems now though.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
I hope you're right Danny Murphy, I really do.

Sometimes with games like this all it takes is one goal.
Then it changes the mindset and one team has to go after the opposition.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
A rare Slovakia attack. I almost forgot they had forwards. Marek Hamsik and Ondrej Duda play a couple of nice balls into the box but they're cleared.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
Sweden have completed more successful passes today than the entirety of their match against Spain.

The problem Slovakia have at the moment is it's all going to feet. There's no balls being sent forward for players to run on to, or being sent into the channels.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
Interesting from Sweden striker Marcus Berg. A cross comes in towards him which he boots high into the air. He chases it down and heads it backwards before Martin Dubravka can catch but nobody is there to take advantage.
Sweden 0-0 Slovakia
A draw wouldn't be a terrible result for either side. Sweden would go through if they beat Poland in the final game and Slovakia would have a great chance with four points.
