Look at the composure. Time, touch, swivel and the execution is absolutely flawless. It's the power from Beth Mead which breaks the deadlock.

England will need to ride the response.

Beth Mead. Six goals and two assists in five games. She is unstoppable at the moment and boy, did England need that.

That is six goals now for the tournament's top scorer.

It has come somewhat against the run of play too.

England defend it well. Rachel Daly wins the initial header and then Lauren Hemp shows strength to see the ball out.

Ellen White concedes a dangerous free-kick, wide right in the England half. A striker's challenge.

Chance for Sweden to test the host's defence again.

These are the scenes at Trafalgar Square where thousands of fans have gathered to watch the semi-final on a big screen.

Excellent play from England. A quick switch out to Lauren Hemp, who drives at her player.

Good delivery, possibly trying to whip it in a little bit more. Lucy Bronze has scored big goals at big moments for England at major tournaments from set-pieces.

Lucy Bronze rises and meets the corner but she heads well wide.

Lauren hemp is found this time and runs at the defence. It earns her side a corner.

Sigh of relief for England.

Georgia Stanway gets a bit lucky, slipping in the box under pressure from Filippa Angeldahl but finding herself with a free-kick.

And breathe. This has been breathtaking. The first 25 minutes have flown by. Quite brilliant.

For the first real time in the game, England opt for a bit more patience, playing it around at the back. They finally opt for a driven pass towards Lauren Hemp but Millie Bright's radar is just off.

England continue to forge half-chances.

Georgia Stanway takes one touch too many meaning she has to snatch at her shot from the edge of the box. It's an easy save for Hedvig Lindahl.

This is a good cross.

Sweden advance down the left and swing a ball through the box. Rachel Daly has to hook away.

Ellen White was off balance. She didn't make any real contact with it. But better from England.

England need a bit more quality in the final third.

The crowd come to life when either Lauren Hemp or Beth mead get on the ball. The former cuts inside and shoots but her effort is blocked. There are half-hearted shouts for handball but the officials see nothing in it.

Soon after, Ellen White slides in to divert the ball towards goal but she is under pressure and her effort lacks power.

Better from England, though.

It's not been a comfortable start for Sarina Wiegman and her team. England players are putting their bodies on the line.

England will be desperate not to concede and ride out this first 15 or 20 minutes.

Harry Maguire is back on his old patch. Manchester United's captain - who used to play for Sheffield United - has turned up to support the Lionesses with Juan Mata.
