    Finland 0-0 Germany

    Merle Frohms has had absolutely nothing to do. An easy Saturday night for the Germany keeper so far as Finland have yet to fashion an attempt of any sort.

    It's a different story for her opposite number Katriina Talaslahti who is rushed off her feet. She's just made another save to keep out Sara Dabritz's attempted chip.

    Just seeing the replays and it is a good challenge. The referee was perfectly placed and looks to have made the right call to me.

    Still, Spain are living dangerously.

  3. PENALTY APPEALpublished at 20:19 British Summer Time 16 July 2022

    Denmark 0-0 Spain

    Katrine Veje shows good skill on the left and sends a really good ball into the box. It is half cleared to Janni Thomsen, who goes down under a challenge as she was about to shoot. A foul? Referee says no and waves play on but will be interesting to see if they go back to look at it.

    The last couple of counters have been very, very good from Denmark, attacking space left by the full-backs of Spain. You see Harder and she backs herself but the goalkeeper is equal to it.

    Chelsea's Pernille Harder has started really well. She's been fairly quiet for her standards in the tournament so far but she is exploiting the glaring holes in this Spain defence. It's been such an open game so far too - which Spain will not like.

    Another Denmark counter as this time Pernille Harder is the one slipped in on the right. She gets into the box and shoots towards the near post but Sandra Panos saves.

    This has been a really good spell for the Danes. They are looking the most likely to score.

    Germany boss Martina Voss-Tecklenburg challenged her side to not ease up on their performances which saw them win Group B with a game to spare.

    Therefore, she will be delighted with her side's start as it has been 12 minutes of absolute dominance.

    Alexandra Popp has headed over, Svenja Huth failed to make a proper connection on a shot, Lena Lattwein has had a header blocked, Linda Dallmann caused problems with a bright run down the right, Sara Dabritz fired over, Klara Buhl had a shot deflected and Sophia Kleinherne's angled drive whistled just over the top.

    The only surprise is it's still goalless.

    Germany have so many numbers in the box and have started with so much intensity.

    That has been the message from the manager, go out and get an early goal.

    How is it still 0-0?

    That's the question Germany's coach will be asking.

    It's one way traffic and Finland cannot get out of their own half.

    The eight-time European champions look in great nick.

    Risky, risky defending by Spain at the moment as their high line is caught out by a ball over the top and Pernille Harder is away. Sandra Panos comes racing off her line and Harder lobs the Spain goalkeeper but the ball goes well over the bar.

    Really good work by Pernille Harder as she drives through the middle before slipping the ball wide to her only option, Karen Holmgaard coming in from the right.

    Holmgaard has the chance to shoot first time just outside the area but opts to take a touch and ends up being closed down.

    Remember Spain don't need to win tonight, this scoreline suits them just fine although they'll likely not want to be sat level with 10 minutes to go and risk getting undone by a dramatic late strike.

    Germany were good on the ball in the opening game, their passing was intricate and now we see a different side to them, they can play different ways while Finland can only play one way.

    Germany want to arrive in the quarter-finals in style.

    Five attempts and 70% possession in the opening 10 minutes. They are banging on the door.

    The one thing I would say about Denmark is they struggle when they regain possession to get themselves out. It's just Pernille Harder at the moment. They have to get bodies around her to support.

    Denmark 0-0 Spain

    Spain have failed to score in four of their last five European Championship games, despite attempting a total of 68 shots across the games they failed to net in.

    There's been no shots, on or off target, by either side in this game with 10 minutes on the clock.

    Denmark are not afraid to get numbers in the box when they have the ball. You sense if they can get one early doors they will fancy their chances of holding out. Spain have the advantage in numbers with support but there's a very loud group of Danish fans across the stadium from where we're sitting.

    Oh wow.

    Germany are pinging the ball around with real confidence. It's lovely to watch. Sara Dabritz has a pop from just outside the box and it only just clears the bar.

    Crucial intervention by Everton's Rikke Sevecke as she knocks behind a really dangerous ball into the box with Spain players lurking.

    I prefer Patri Guijarro in the six role. You can see her just sitting in the front of those two centre-backs and it can protect them. She's the best passer on the pitch.
