    Miedema is a phenomenal player and she needs to be recognised for that. She goes under the radar and isn't really spoken about with the Ballon d'Or. She showed today in her performance, the way she uses defenders to roll it, it looks like playground stuff. She's a clever, clever player and is a level above some of her team mates. I think the took the game to the next level in the second half.

    I think Sweden will be a bit frustrated. Going off the first half performance if they did something similar in the second they could have punished this Dutch team. They will be frustrated with that, but credit to the Dutch. They came out in the second half and they were a different team and I feel Sweden struggled to break them down. It became a game of two halves.

    A much better second half from the Netherlands to cancel out their tepid opening 45 minutes, although they were not helped by injuries during the game.

    The key was getting Vivianne Miedema into the game. She was very isolated in the first half but had much more influence after the break.

    You feel both sets of fans go away reasonably happy with that result, which leaves the group wide open.

    Sweden bossed the first half, the Netherlands had flashes in the second half and got back level. A dress rehearsal of the final? I think so.

    It has been a long time since I've seen this happening in a game of football. Lindahl goes to play a goal kick and the forward puts her foot up. The referee allows it to play on.

    I have to say that I am on Miedema's side because she didn't put the ball in the dangerous area. The referee should have given a free-kick. VAR would have had a job to do.

    It's punched away by the keeper, who is fouled anyway.

    A good catch by Sweden keeper Hedvig Lindahl, but Vivianne Miedema blocks her clearance. The Netherlands can't take advantage though.

    The young goalkeeper, look at the distance off her line. This is why she has made this save. She's a good distance off and it allows her to cover all of the goal. If she's deeper on her line she is not saving that. It's a lovely pure strike and a really good save. It was the right decision to parry it wide.

    Ductch keeper Daphne van Domselaar is havng a busy end to this game, this time a diving save to deny Fridolina Rolfo.

    Dutch star Lieke Martens is down injured now. I could be wrong but I don't think they can make another sub because they have used their three windows.

    Maybe she can play on actually.
