Better from Ukraine now, a spell of attacking with Andriy Yarmalenko playing a no-look cross for some reason results in a corner to the hosts.

The home crowd here in Eindhoven have only just composed themselves again after that Montenegro miss.

Malacia knew he'd mucked up. He put his head in his hands as soon as he played the pass. Lucky boy.

France have played better since equalising and Ukraine are having to work a lot to hold them out.

OH NO! How has he missed?!

Stefan Mugosa is handed a golden chance on a plate by the sloppiest of passes across his own back-line by Dutch debutant Tyrell Malacia.

Mugosa has just the keeper to beat but slices his effort horribly wide.

What a chance.

Action Man AI: Would anyone have predicted this France lineup? One of the most random selections I’ve ever seen. How is it possible that France are in such an easy group? They’ve been woeful in qualifying. They’ll now come back but question marks remain about Deschamps management

France have drawn their past four games in all competitions - and Ukraine have drawn all four World Cup qualifiers. So don't act surprised if it stays like this.

There was a VAR check to see if there was an offence in that but the goal stood.

The Dutch continue to pepper the Montenegro goal. Steven Berghuis' shot from an angle is tipped wide by the away keeper.

GOAL - Ukraine 1-1 France

Anthony Martial gets his first internatonal goal in over five years. Just.

The ball comes in from the right and Antoine Griezmann bundles it into the path of Martial. He shoots straight at the keeper, but Andriy Pyatov can't keep it out. The ball crosses the line. Just.

The Dutch want to put this to bed.

Ukraine's Vitalii Mykolenko needs treatment after being caught by Kingsley Coman in the air. We are back under way though.

Matthijs de Ligt has taken a huge whack and is down needing treatment. It came from Marko Vesovic. Looks like he is going to be OK, though.

Oh, the Dutch nearly hand Montenegro a leveller. Georginio Wijnaldum is robbed in midfield after dwelling on the ball and it sets off an attack that ends with Milutin Osmajic side-footing a tame shot straight at home keeper Justin Bijlow.

KICK-OFF

Under way everywhere.

SUBSTITUTION

Marko Simic is on for skipper Stefan Savic for Montenegro. Apparently, the defender has an injury, to go with the yellow card that will lead to a suspension.

Ukraine have only won one of their past 11 competitive games in 90 minutes. Which is impressive considering they reached the Euro 2020 quarter-finals.

That was over five years ago in a friendly against Italy.

Anthony Martial has only scored once for France in his 28 caps.

France's last competitive defeat was 2-0 in Turkey in a Euro 2020 qualifier in June 2019.

The half-time scores...

• Faroe Islands 0-0 Denmark
• Gibraltar 0-0 Turkey
• Israel 3-1 Austria
• Netherlands 1-0 Montenegro
• Scotland 1-0 Moldova
• Slovakia 0-0 Croatia
• Ukraine 1-0 France
