    I don't think we'll see a better goal than that across football this weekend than Rachel Rowe's goal.

    Wales 3-0 Kazakhstan

    Kazakhstan have a shot - but it is not a threatening one in truth.

    Yulia Myasnikova's long-range free-kick is ambitious to say the least - and Laura O'Sullivan is not troubled.

  3. YELLOW CARDpublished at 64 mins

    Wales 3-0 Kazakhstan

    Gemma Evans is booked after catching Svetlana Bortnikova with an arm as she wins a header.

    It looks like an accident and therefore the booking is harsh, although the Kazakhstan forward is in some pain.

    I think it's important to get the youngsters on and give them exposure in this environment in this attacking game.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see Ffion Morgan come on for Tash Harding to rest her a bit ahead of Tuesday.

    Wales 3-0 Kazakhstan

    Some chances have gone begging tonight, but Wales have scored three fine goals.

    This has been a treat for the fans, who are back watching the national side for the first time since the start of the pandemic.

    I get disappointed if I see Rachel Rowe at left-back, she offers so much more in an attacking position, you get the benefit of her joining in against a team defending deep like Kazakhstan. Top bins!

    What a goal!

    We mentioned that Rachel Rowe has been popping all over the place - and now she appears 30 yards from goal to collect Jess Fishlock's pass and unleashes a fabulous drive which whistles past the helpless Kazakhstan goalkeeper.

    That is glorious.

    More good work from Kayleigh Green as she drives beyond a couple of challenges.

    She has had a fine game so far.

    A nice move from Wales sees Kayleigh Green get in behind and cross for Ceri Holland, but her effort his blocked.

    I think Wales need to keep hold of the ball a little bit more, play through the gaps.

    They're trying to force it a bit at the moment as they search for more goals.

    I think they'd like another goal pretty soon but there are fantastic options on the bench.

    We'll be excited to see Carrie Jones if that happens.

    Wales 2-0 Kazakhstan

    Rachel Rowe is Wales' left-back but she is popping up all over the place.

    Admittedly, Wales haven't had much defending to do, but Rowe's energy levels are quite something.

    Wales 2-0 Kazakhstan

    The first half-chance of the second comes from a Rachel Rowe cross, but it is an awkward one for Kayleigh Green and she can only head wide.

  15. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 46 mins

    Wales 2-0 Kazakhstan

    The visitors have sent on Begaim Kirgizbaeva, replacing Ksenia Khairulina.

  16. KICK-OFFpublished at 46 mins

    Wales 2-0 Kazakhstan

    Wales' players are all smiles as the second half gets under way.

    Now to ensure that remains the case at full time.

    HT: Wales 2-0 Kazakhstan

    Only one nation will qualify automatically for the World Cup from this group, which also features France, Slovenia, Greece and Estonia.

    The French are the top seeds in Group I - and they have made a statement on the opening night of qualifying by winning 10-0 in Greece.

    Ouch.

    Wales must go for the jugular in the second half as they look to put down a marker of their own.

  18. HALF-TIME - Wales 2-0 Kazakhstanpublished at 20:04 British Summer Time 17 September 2021

    So far, so good for Wales, who dominated throughout that first period.

    Kayleigh Green drilled them in front before another classy finish, this time from Natasha Harding, doubled the hosts' advantage.

    Gemma Grainger will be well pleased with what she has seen - though in truth her team could have been out of sight.

    There's been a lot of goals in this group already, will Wales be happy with two goals? They might feel they should have more.

  20. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 45 +2 mins

    Kazakhstan are forced into a change, with Fatima Satygaliyeva forced off after that challenge from Jess Fishlock.

    Kundyz Kozhakhmet comes on.
