Video Assistant Referee

The ref is coming to check the monitor on this. With good reason too. The cross that led to the penalty clearly strikes Timothy Castagne's face and not his arm.

PENALTY TO THE NETHERLANDS

The Netherlands are given a penalty. I don't think it will stand, though...

Woof.

Marko Arnautovic gets the first goal of the Ralf Rangnick era with a good run and finish from 20 yards out.

That was Austria's first shot on target.

GOAL - Belgium 0-1 Netherlands

It has been coming!

Frenkie de Jong finds Steven Bergwijn near the edge of the Belgium box. The Spurs man takes a touch, turns and fires a swerving shot into the corner of the Belgium net.

The Netherlands deservedly lead.

Wing-back Joakim Maehle has had Denmark's best two chances. He pops up in the box as a cross somehow comes to him but Jules Kounde puts him under pressure and his shot is weak.

Another block needed by Belgium.

This time it's Dedryck Boyata diving in to stop a Steven Bergwijn shot finding the target.

Some boos from the home fans greet the latest chance. They're not pleased with what they're seeing.

A Mexican wave at the Stade de France. That's disappointing.

The Netherlands just keep wasting chances.

Steven Berghuis is the latest to spurn a decent opportunity, curling an effort just over the bar.

It's nearly all Croatia and Andrej Kramaric has just forced a decent save. Surely a goal is coming.

Belgium are on the ropes at the moment.

They get caught out in possession again, allowing the Netherlands to drive forward, but Steven Bergwijn's low shot is deflected wide.

Speaking of the injured striker...

First chance in a good while as PSG striker Kylian Mbappe hooks in a shot from 16 yards out which is easily stopped by Kasper Schmeichel.

Close!

Daley Blind is set up by Memphis Depay in the box but he pulls his angled shot just past the far post.

Netherlands on top now.

A big block from Toby Alderweireld is needed to stop Steven Bergwijn's fierce shot causing Simon Mignolet any trouble. Putting his body on the line.

SUBSTITUTION

Yep, Romelu Lukaku is done here.

He departs to be replaced by Leandro Trossard. He'll provide a different challenge for this Ducth defence.

Been a while since we had a chance at the SdF. Denmark striker Kasper Dolberg hurts his arm with an awkward landing and gets some treatment.

Lukaku looks to be limping. Has he hurt himself falling over? He was a doubt before this game.

There is a VAR check on the Lukaku incident, to see if there's anything untoward. They don't seem to think so. The ref on the field wasn't buying it, either.

Boos from the home fans. Romelu Lukaku goes down after he tussles with Nathan Ake to try and gather a long ball forward.

Ake goes down first and then Lukaku drops after, seemingly claiming he's had his foot hooked back. I don't think he has, though. Try telling that to the striker and these home fans, though.

These sides also meet in the World Cup group stages in November.
