    Jason Cole: Spanish team need to learn that you have to shoot to score goals. Feels like an Arsene Wenger Arsenal side who always wanted to pass the ball into the net.

    Reading and England striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    She was miles off. But it's ruthless again.

  8. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 82 mins

    Germany 2-0 Spain

    It's one of those glory-crushing late flags!

    Tabea Wassmuth is clear of the Spain defence - a yard or two off - when she gathers the ball before charging on, rounding the keeper and finishing.

    It is another neat finish from the Germans but it won't count.

    Germany 2-0 Spain

    Kathrin Hendrich has had a storming game at the back for Germany. She is aware of the danger from a Spain free-kick and run across to plant a big clearing header on the ball.

    We're closing in on the final 10 minutes.

    Former Leeds striker on BBC Two

    It’s quite ominous how good Germany have been in all the moments of the game.

    They defend when they have to, they attack ruthlessly.

    Spain send over another cross but the superb Merle Frohms is out to claim.

    It is Spain attack v Germany defence. The German defence is winning at the moment.

    Mariona Caldentey did everything right but every time Spain have got in behind Merle Frohms has been absolutely brilliant.

  14. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 73 mins

    Germany 2-0 Spain

    Just before that chance, Spain took off Sheila and sent on forward Marta Cardona of Real Madrid and replaced Laia Alexandri with Athenea Del Castillo, also from Real.

    Germany send on Linda Dallmann - a Bayern Munich midfielder - for Sara Dabritz.

    Brilliant save!

    Spain finally get in with a ball from deep finding the perfectly-timed run from Mariona Caldentey in the box. The Spain player meets the ball with a volley but it fails to find the target thanks to a blinder of a fingertip save from Merle Frohms.

    Too often, Spain want just that fraction of a second too long on the ball. Even when they do nip ahead of a German player and set up a potential attack that slight delay in making a decision simply courts a tackle to come.

    Irene Paredes gets her head to another corner but she's off balance at the back post and can only nod wide.

    Germany 2-0 Spain

    Another finely-timed tackle from Kathrin Hendrich stops Mariona Caldentey from getting into the box. The German defence has been superb.

    Germany 2-0 Spain

    As the sun goes down in London, time continues to tick away with Spain growing increasingly desperate.

    They continue to look to open Germany up, but it's just not happening. They're going to have to try something different sooner rather than later.

  20. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 64 mins

    Germany 2-0 Spain

    Spain send on Claudia Pina of Barcelona to boost their attack. Off goes the ineffective Lucia Garcia.

    Germany make two changes. Popp is off, still grumbling, as is Felicitas Rauch. On come striker Tabea Wassmuth and defender Sophia Kleinherne. Fresh legs to continue the press.
