    FT: Switzerland 2-1 Wales

    Full-time in Zurich.

    Wales' World Cup dream is over as Switzerland win 2-1 after extra-time.

    Reaction to that one here.

    Chloe Kelly just didn't quite get enough on it to nestle it into the top corner.

    England are almost trying to walk it through to get the perfect shot but they haven't even tested the goalkeeper from a distance yet, so they should be doing that to keep her on her toes.

    England 0-0 Czech Republic

    Oof, England gift the visitors the ball in a dangerous area but get away with it thanks to a brave Alex Greenwood block.

    Nervy times back there.

    Close!

    Another ripple of excitement as Lauren James finds herself in possession. She works a simple pass to Luzy Bronze just outside the box.

    Bronze sends a teasing cross into Chloe Kelly, who heads just wide.

    Better from England.

    England pounced then!

    It was just an unfortunate trip and slip at the wrong time by Lucy Bronze.

    She just couldn't quite get her feet set so she'll probably get teased for that in the dressing room!

    Switzerland 2-1 Wales

    Agony for Wales in Zurich as Switzerland have just scored what will surely be a winning goal in the last minute of extra-time.

    England work it to Lucy Bronze on the right. She loses her footing but somehow keeps control of the ball!

    The Czechs manage to recover and England win a throw-in, from which another Lionesses move breaks down.

    You can understand why Karel Rada is encouraging Andrea Staskova to try to run in behind Millie Bright and Alex Greenwood after the Atletico Madrid forward's hat-trick in the 3-3 draw at home to Hungary on Friday, when she should have had a fourth to settle the game late on.

    Sarina Wiegman has words with Greenwood about the way she wants England to create space in front of the defence, and the defender offers a thumbs up. The longer the hosts cannot break the Czech Republic down, the more tactical tweaking could be needed.

    Scotland 0-0 Republic of Ireland

    The Republic of Ireland have just had a goal disallowed following a VAR check at Hampden Park.

    It remains Scotland 0-0 Republic of Ireland.

    England aren't exactly dominating. The Czechs are seeing plenty of the ball but have just lacked the killer final pass so far.

    Sarina will see this as a good challenge because they're not an easy team to break down.

    England are probing and they've had some good balls but the final ball has just been a bit too heavy or not accurate enough.

    Lauren James has been really positive in possession so far. Her latest foray forward earns England a free-kick, which Alex Greenwood will take.

    It's aimed towards Millie Bright but the flag goes up for offside. Not 100% sure that was offside, to be honest.

    Lauren Hemp did well but she never got the power and hit it with her laces.

    That's the part of the game she needs to improve and learn on, especially in this number nine role.

    If she can add that to her game then she really will become world class!

    Time for England to attack now as Lauren James finds Lauren Hemp, whose shot lacks the power to trouble Olivie Lukasova in the Czech goal.

    The visitors are almost through as Andrea Staskova chases a through ball. The striker doesn't have the pace to break away from England's defenders, though, and the move breaks down.

    Bronze has already shown some of the abundant quality that has taken her to 100 caps, with an eye-catching flick, slick passing and a well-timed aerial challenge among her contributions so far, as well as casually back-heeling the ball to the Czech Republic when they won a free-kick.

    Wiegman, who's opted for white trainers, has been on her feet for the first time in the match to make a polite point to the fourth official from the edge of her technical area.

    That's the difference in the quality with these lower ranked teams.

    If you're going to get those opportunities, you have to take them.

    Meanwhile, at Hampden Park, Scotland have just missed a penalty against Ireland in the Women's World Cup play-offs.

    Demi Stokes concedes a free-kick for a foul on Katerina Svitkova. It's in a promising position for the Czechs, but they blast the set-piece well over the bar.

    Ella Toone will be desperate to show what she can do after not starting on Friday.

    Obviously she showed what she could do in the Euros off the bench but this time it's about pushing to be a starting player.
