    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Now Belgium are playing keep-ball. Good game management as they look to get over the finishing line.

  2. Post update

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Canada have run themselves into the ground. They're all out of juice.

  3. Post update

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Five minutes of stoppage time. Belgium are going to have to work to the very last second if they want these three points.

  4. Post update

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    If you're wondering what happened to that Canada corner, it was...awful.

    Jermaine Jenas

    Former England midfielder on BBC One

    Canada are giving it a go. The fans are getting right behind them, they appreciate the effort.

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Corner to Canada. Up goes another roar from the stands. They're giving this a right good go.

  7. Post update

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Jermaine Jenas

    Former England midfielder on BBC One

    Canada are having one of those games where they could have 40 attempts on goal and still not score.

  8. Post update

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    The World Cup is only a few days old but we've already had loads of late drama. Will we see any here? Two minutes plus stoppages.

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    A photo of Belgium vs Canada stats

    Canada are almost two goals ahead in the xG stakes.

    They're only on 0.33 for the second half - which is still considerably better than Belgium's 0.06.

  10. 'De Bruyne is human'

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Jermaine Jenas

    Former England midfielder on BBC One

    De Bruyne has just been slightly off it today. He sets such high standards. He is human.

    Kevin De Bruyne

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Space is opening up as Canada tire. Kevin de Bruyne is driving towards goal before taking a punt from about 20 yards. High and wide.

    It's not been one of his better games.

  12. 'Bad challenge'

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Jermaine Jenas

    Former England midfielder on BBC One

    It's a bad challenge from Johnston, he got caught out and he just lunges in. He was just desperately trying to stop the counter attack and he hacked down his man.

  13. YELLOW CARD

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    The referee is being kept busy in the closing stages. After Alphonso Davies is booked for a foul, Alistair Johnston produces an ugly challenge from behind on Lois Openda. Out comes another yellow.

    Into the final 10!

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Jermaine Jenas

    Former England midfielder on BBC One

    Everything about that move was brilliant, the first moment of proper quality from Canada. But Courtois just plucked it out of the air. That's what the best goalkeepers do, they make difficult saves look easy.

  16. Post update

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    So close!

    A header by Cyle Larin is heading for the net but Thibaut Courtois stretches to pluck it out of the air.

  17. SUBSTITUTIONS

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Samuel Adekugbe has come on for Canada, while goalscorer Michy Batshuayi has made way for Lois Openda.

  18. Post update

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Cyle Larin creates space for himself inside the box but cannot control the ball when it lands at his feet. More frustration for Canada.

  19. Post update

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Jermaine Jenas

    Former England midfielder on BBC One

    Canada have just lost their way a little bit in this game. We're not seeing as much of Alphonso Davies anymore. The whole game has just got a bit scrappy actually.

    Belgium 1-0 Canada
  20. Post update

    Belgium 1-0 Canada

    Canada are tiring but there is still time for a twist.

    They have failed to score in all their previous three World Cup matches (all in the 1986 group phase). The only two teams to remain goalless in each of their first four World Cup games are Bolivia (5, 1930-1994) and Greece (4, 1994-2010).
