    Denmark are getting success down this right-hand side.

    You thought that was going in. The goalkeeper makes a great save.

    Denmark defender Stine Pedersen has a problem.

    She's down after a clash of heads.

  4. GREAT SAVE!published at 12 mins

    Denmark 0-0 Finland

    STUNNING SAVE!

    Sara Thrige puts in a wicked low ball which Denmark forward Nadia Nadim pokes goalwards.

    It looks to be trickling in at the far post but Finland keeper Tinja-Riikka Korpela does brilliantly, palming the ball behind.

    Excellent stuff from the captain.

    A lovely little movement inside by Nadia Nadim.

    She could have gone either side but she just can’t find an angle.

    Good play, though.

    Great football this from Denmark as a ball over the top is chased down by number nine Nadia Nadim.

    She holds the ball up before cutting inside onto her left and firing straight at Finland keeper Tinja-Riikka Korpela.

    Our best chance of breaking the deadlock yet.

  7. 'Denmark wanting to show attacking attributes'published at 17:10 British Summer Time 12 July 2022

    It’s a quick tempo.

    Denmark are definitely looking to put their emphasis on the game, to have possession and show their attacking attributes which they weren’t able to show in the last game.

    Denmark 0-0 Finland

    It's all a bit scrappy as Pernille Harder looks to give herself a yard of space before rushing a shot with her weaker foot.

    Easily blocked by a wall of blue defenders.

    All Denmark now. Pass, pass, pass as Finland drop deeper and deeper.

    No chances of note yet for the Danes though.

    But we do have a first Finnish strike as centre-back Natalia Kuikka fires a thunderbolt from a long way out.

    Her effort is always rising but boy was it powerful. Take cover in the crowd!

    Germany were just too good against Denmark, Sometimes that happens.

    They didn’t allow Denmark to find any rhythm but I think they will be able to find a little bit easier against Finland.

    No goals inside the opening minute this time around.

    Finland were already ahead against Spain at this stage in their last game.

    When Pernille Harder gets the ball for this Danish team she likes to attack and make things happen.

    That’s a strength. If they can get the ball to her they can create chances'

    Anthems done.

    I do expect Germany and Spain to qualify but these teams are still alive and fighting for their lives.

    I think Denmark have the better squad and better quality of players but it is going to be a tough game for them.

    The players are in the tunnel.

    Chelsea and Denmark forward Pernille Harder looks super focused.

    Finland's goal against Spain, the second fastest in the tournament's history, came after bookmakers had them at odds of nearly 50-1 to win the match, 200-1 to win the group and 500-1 to win the competition.

    However, after Adelina Engman's miss that could have made it 2-0, they saw little of the ball and had to defend deep and in numbers.

    Finland reached the semi-finals when the tournament was last staged in England in 2005 but will need to gain positive results to stay in the competition.

  20. Denmark face uphill battle to qualifypublished at 16:48 British Summer Time 12 July 2022

    Denmark came into the tournament with lots of self-belief.

    A sea of red shirts filled Brentford Community Stadium to cheer on the 2017 finalists in their opener, but the Danes struggled to carve out chances, with Pernille Harder - one of the best players in the world - unable to test Germany keeper Merle Frohms.

    With Germany and Spain starting with big wins, Denmark now face a battle to reach the quarter-finals.

    Today they realistically have to win to give themselves a chance of advancing.
