  1. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:22 British Summer Time 4 September 2021

    Netherlands 4-0 Montenegro

    That goal is Cody Gakpo's last act. He is replaced by Steven Bergwijn of Tottenham Hotspur.

  2. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 21:21 British Summer Time 4 September 2021

    Ukraine 1-1 France

    Moussa Diaby is so close on only his second France appearance. The master Karim Benzema controls a ball into the box and lays it off for Diaby, who takes a touch and then tries to slot the ball into the bottom corner... but it hits the base of the post.

    Pitch invader. We're under way eventually after they're caught.

    Cody Gakpo (76 mins)

    It's a rout!

    This is the best of the lot - a curling effort from the edge of the box by Cody Gakpo. Not a bad first goal for your country. And on the ground on which you play your club football. Take a bow son.

    Netherlands 3-0 Montenegro

    This win will leave the Netherlands second in Group G and a point behind leaders Turkey, who are winning 2-0 in Gibraltar.

    The Dutch host the Turks on Tuesday in a huge clash.

    Ukraine 1-1 France

    A lovely Ukraine move but then Roman Yaremchuk can't control a cross and it runs to the keeper. The hosts are playing some good stuff now.

  7. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:15 British Summer Time 4 September 2021

    Netherlands 3-0 Montenegro

    Wijnaldum's goal was his last act. He is protected for the home game with Turkey as Marten de Roon replaces him.

    Turkey made a triple sub at half-time against Gibraltar and it's paid off with two of them scoring. Hakan Calhanoglu has just made it 2-0.

    Israel look set to hold off Austria's fightback and lead 4-2 now.

    Ukraine 1-1 France

    France are throwing bodies on the line to stop a multi-phased Ukraine attack.

    Not sure I've ever said multi-phased attack before.

    Giorginio Wijnaldum (70 mins)

    Game. Over.

    Moments after Stefan Mugosa sees another golden chance for Montenegro saved, Giorginio Wijnaldum hammers in the killer blow with a fierce shot.

    Job done for the Dutch.

    Ukraine 1-1 France

    Big chance for France and Kurt Zouma. Antoine Griezmann lifts in a lovely cross after a one-two from a corner and Zouma heads over from about eight yards.

    Ukraine 1-1 France

    Ukraine's Oleksandr Tymchyk had a bandage on his head from an earlier injury. It pops off while he's tackled and he just throws it away. Hope that's wise.

  13. YELLOW CARDpublished at 21:09 British Summer Time 4 September 2021

    Netherlands 2-0 Montenegro

    Frustration now for Montenegro. Milutin Osmajic is shown a yellow card for kicking the ball away in anger after he had handballed.

    Netherlands 2-0 Montenegro

    Montenegro did of course come from 2-0 down to secure a point in Istanbul earlier this week. I think a repeat may be beyond them here though.

  15. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:07 British Summer Time 4 September 2021

    Ukraine 1-1 France

    France goalscorer Anthony Martial is replaced by Karim Benzema. And Moussa Diaby replaces Kingsley Coman for his second cap.

  16. Postpublished at 21:06 British Summer Time 4 September 2021

    Ukraine 1-1 France

    Close from Antoine Griezmann. He takes Kingsley Coman's pass in his stride but shoots wide from 16 yards.

    Ukraine 1-1 France

    Karim Benzema is warming up.

  18. Postpublished at 21:04 British Summer Time 4 September 2021

    Half-time substitute Halil Dervisoglu gives Turkey a 1-0 lead against Gibraltar.

    Marko Arnautovic has pulled another back for Austria against Israel. it was 3-0, it's now 3-2.

    Memphis Depay (62 mins)

    That man again!

    The Dutch pressure pays off as the ball is fed to Memphis Depay in the box by Cody Gakpo and he fires a shot in at the near post.

    Thirty for his country now. Nine in his last nine games.

    Surely that is the points in the bag now.

    Ukraine 1-1 France

    Ukraine's set-pieces are excellent. This corner almost curls in at the near post but Paul Pogba heads wide.
