    Good luck stopping Wendie Renard winning headers.

    She rises and meets the corner but gets her effort all wrong and nods the ball wide.

    In comes the ball but Viviane Miedema is there to haed behind. France corner.

    Oof, that's taking no prisoners.

    Jackie Groenen dives in to stop Sakina Karchaoui getting to shooting range. It presents a free-kick with potential, though...

    Deus Seb Machina: Diani and Geyoro have really been the two standout individuals of this tournament for me. Great intellect around a footy pitch and serious pace and skill. Lovely to watch in full flow.

    The corner is dire. It is delivered deep into the box, where no orange-clad players are. A French player simply allows it to skip through and away from danger.

    It's quite interesting with France because in many tournaments, they've unachieved because they've got such talented players and can't seem to progress into the latter stages.

    They hope that this will be their year because there isn't much disharmony in the team.

    Much more even game now.

    The Netherlands win the game's first corner as Sherida Spitse's shot is deflected wide.

    The pace of this game is exciting already. It’s a bit like a basketball game at the moment – there are lots of transitions.

    Oh, that's a bit tasty.

    Sherida Spitse slides in for a hack at a French player in midfield. Thankfully, she doesn't make much contact with the blue-socked shin.

    Not much involvement for Vivianne Miedema yet. Jury still out on just how fit she is for this after her bout of covid.

    A fast start from France, popping the ball around nicely and making it difficult for the Netherlands to get a hold of - a few anxious sighs from the crowd of Dutch shirts down in front of us, although that promising passage of play may have settled their nerves somewhat.

    Oh, this is much better from the Dutch.

    They break down the left and swing over a cross into the danger zone. Sakina Karchaoui is first to it, with a header back towards her own keeper that needs a diving save to stop.

    Finally, the Netherlands have some respite and are allowed to play the ball around at the back. The forward pass, when it comes, is aimless, though.

    The French press has been exceptional and this Dutch back four can’t seem to clear the pressure.

    When they do, the ball just goes straight back to a blue shirt.

    We're into the fourth minute and the Dutch haven't had a controlled touch yet. It's all very panicked. That is down to how intense and effective France have been.

    France look like they mean business.

    They're pinning the holders back and forcing them into sloppy clearances.

    Early chance for France!

    Kadidiatou Diani checks inside and passes to Grace Geyoro in the box but she can't generate enough power with her shot on the turn to properly test the Dutch keeper.

    Promising.

    It is far from a sell-out here, but the crowd is making plenty of noise. The band are already in full swing.

    Have they saved the best quarter-final for last?

    It's France v Netherlands for the right to face Germany in the last eight and it is under way.

    The orange-shirted fans are outnumbering those in blue in Rotherham.

    France v Netherlands (20:00 BST)

    Head of sports analysis, Nielsen Gracenote

    The last of the four Euro 2022 quarter-finals is the most closely matched of the week.

    France were ranked third in the last Fifa ranking and the Netherlands were fourth. France are marginal favourites according to Gracenote, who estimate a 54% chance of a semi-final place for the French.

    France are given 16% chance to win Euro 2022 by Gracenote and the Netherlands have 12% chance. Both of these figures are close to their pre-tournament estimates.
