    Wendie Renard is down now, holding her lower back after a tumble following an aerial challenge.

    This will eat into further precious seconds.

    Stefanie van der Gragt is now operating up front to provide some strength and height to the Dutch attack.

    Her absence at the back is obvious, though, as France fashion a chance for Ouleymata Sarr to fire over from an angle.

    Time is ticking away for the Dutch.

    They are getting done over here by a stronger opponent. If this were an arm wrestle their hand would be millimetres from touching surface, trembling under the pressure.

    The France players who came on want to make an impact and play in the semis.

    Some France fans have gone early with a Thunder Clap. They must be feeling confident that victory is imminent.

    France are managing this well.

    They are dominating the ball and denying the Dutch any chances to hurt them.

    Ten minutes remain.

    The Dutch also made a couple of subs for this half. Romee Leuchter and Aniek Nouwen are on for Sherida Spitse and Kerstin Casparij.

    Sarr with another chance. She has plenty of time and space but side-foots her effort tamely wide.

    On France's triple sub

    A bit of fatigue setting in. The Netherlands will leave spaces open for France to potentially get a second.

  12. SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 106 mins

    France 1-0 Netherlands

    Plenty of changes for this last period.

    France have sent on Marion Torrent, Ouleymata Sarr and Ella Palis.

    The middle of these three almost settles the game with her first act - an angled shot just past the far post.

    France deserve it, they’ve been playing so well.

    Now it’s just about controlling the rest of the game.

    France 1-0 Netherlands

    We head into the final 15 minutes of open play.

    France 1-0 Netherlands

    One player who certainly doesn't deserve to be on the losing side is Dutch keeper Daphne van Domselaar.

    She wouldn't even have played in this tournament but for a shoulder injury to Sari van Veenendaal.

    The whistle goes for half-time in extra time with the Netherlands rocking.

    They look floored now. But they need to dig deep.

    It's bound to [open up for France]. The Dutch have to put players forward and take risks.

    That goal was a hammer blow to the Dutch. They're all over the shop in chasing the game.

    Selma Bacha dances through and has just the keeper to beat but slices her shot horribly wide.

    That was so close. Daphne van Domselaar was given a bottle at half-time, which presumably had some of the penalty takers on it.

    Corinne Diacre is stony faced - she knows it's not over.
