    Netherlands 1-1 Ecuador

    Enner Valencia has now scored Ecuador's last six World Cup goals.

    He becomes just the fourth man to do that, after Eusebio for Portugal in 1966, Paolo Rossi for Italy in 1982 and Oleg Salenko for Russia in 1994.

  2. GOAL - Netherlands 1-1 Ecuador

    Enner Valencia

    They've started the second half how they ended the first and Ecuador are deservedly level.

    It all comes from Moises Caicedo winning possession and feeding Pervis Estupinan. His drive is well saved by Andries Noppert but Enner Valencia shows his striker's instincts to tap it home.

    The Ecuador players celebrate on the floor in a circle while the Dutch defenders appeal for an offside flag that ain't coming.

    Game on!

    Netherlands 1-0 Ecuador

    Pervis Estupinan has caught the eye for Ecuador.

    The Brighton wing-back had a goal disallowed and has also created two chances for his team-mates, having found space down the left wing.

    La Tri just need to keep feeding him as there's space in behind Denzel Dumfries.

  6. KICK-OFF

    Netherlands 1-0 Ecuador

    Away we go.

    The Netherlands are 45 minutes away from the knockout stages.

  7. SUBSTITUTION

    Netherlands 1-0 Ecuador

    Here come Memphis Depay.

    He's on for Steven Bergwijn.

  8. Post update

    HT: Netherlands 1-0 Ecuador

    Away from here, there's the small matter of England's second game at the World Cup against the United States.

    Victory would seal qualification for the last 16 and you can follow all the build-up over here.

    Memphis Depay is expected to come on at half-time for the Netherlands as he continues to build up his fitness. He's out on the pitch now warming up and playing some long balls.

    He's got his full kit on and his training top is off.

  10. Rock solid

    HT: Netherlands 1-0 Ecuador

    Andries Noppert denies Moises Caicedo

    A reminder of a defensive nugget from earlier - the Netherlands could equal the World Cup record of five consecutive clean sheets if they keep Ecuador out.

    They're halfway there.

    SMS Message: The goalie had already committed to the dive and was nowhere near the ball. He wasn't deceived or obstructed by the player in the offside position. Thoughtless refereeing. from Alex

    HT: Netherlands 1-0 Ecuador

    Ecuador aren't too happy with life after that disallowed goal, but they certainly grew as the first half progressed.

    The xG graphic below shows their shots on the Dutch goal. The Netherlands, on the other hand, haven't managed a shot since Cody Gakpo fizzed in that brilliant opener.

    Ecuador's xG for that half was 0.35. The Netherlands' was 0.04.

  13. 'This game is far from over'

    HT: Netherlands 1-0 Ecuador

    Matt Upson

    Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 Live

    The Netherlands haven't been particularly impressive at all.

    They'll probably be thinking this has been relatively straight forward - they haven't had to turn up and be the best version of themselves and they could be already through to the next stage.

    They've lacked attacking creativity, consistency, movement in the front two. There's loads of things that they're not doing that well and I think this game is far from over.

    It's been a bit dull at times in terms of the tempo. Ecuador have these surges so it's whether or not they can keep pressing.

    The Netherlands have had nothing in terms of offering something going forward.

    .

    Pervis Estupinan is frustrated at half-time as some of his team-mate - including Brighton team-mate Moises Caicedo - huddle around the officials on the halfway line. There are a few boos from the Ecuador fans.

    Estupinan hasn't got the luxury of a replay but Jackson Porozo was clearly offside and right in front of the keeper.

  16. 'A shame for Ecuador'

    Netherlands 1-0 Ecuador

    Matt Upson

    Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 Live

    It's certainly not Pervis Estupinan who was in an offside position and it's such a shame for Ecuador because he's having no effect on the outcome.

  17. HALF-TIME

    HT: Netherlands 1-0 Ecuador

    Cody Gakpo's moment of magic splits the teams at the break but Ecuadorian protests are continuing as the players leave the field.

    La Tri have definitely held their own and this game is far from decided.

  18. DISALLOWED GOAL

    Netherlands 1-0 Ecuador

    From the corner, Angelo Preciado smashes it back in and Pervis Estupinan instinctively turns it home.

    It wrongfoots Andries Noppert but the goal is ruled out as Jackson Porozo was standing offside and in the keeper's line of vision.

  19. Post update

    Netherlands 1-0 Ecuador

    Pervis Estupinan whips it in with pace and Enner Valencia is up brilliantly above Nathan Ake.

    He doesn't make good connection though and his header rebounds off the Dutch defender for a corner.

    Into the final 30 seconds of the half.

  20. Post update

    Netherlands 1-0 Ecuador

    Jurrien Timber and Michael Estrada square up as the ball rolls away.

    It swiftly blows over but Ecuador have a free-kick and a chance to get bodies forward before half-time.
