The actual shove is in the box. I'm guessing they're saying contact rather than a push. That's the only thing.

Mark: Wagging fingers at the ref should be a definite yellow.
England 0-0 Nigeria
From another angle behind the goal, it does look very soft.

For me I think Rachel Daly sells it a little bit.
There was a little shove on the way into the penalty area, but she does make the most of it.
England 0-0 Nigeria
As you'd expect, the Nigeria players are fuming. England have a golden chance to seize the lead, though.
Or do they?
The ref is coming to the screen to have a look. Did the foul begin outside the box and continue in it? Was it even a foul?

I thought straight away. It's a shove in the back but talk about clever play.
Just because it's in the area doesn't mean it's not a foul. It is a foul and it is a penalty.
England 0-0 Nigeria
Massive moment!
Rachel Daly goes down in the box as a free-kick is swung in. It's a shove from Rasheedat Ajibade that sends her down. It's clumsy more than anything else.
The referee had no hesitation, though, pointing immediately to the spot.
England 0-0 Nigeria
Half an hour in and if you had any doubts about this being a proper contest, those have been utterly wiped away.

England need to keep their foot down.

Huge, huge chance.
It's a good reflex save from Nnadozie, she positions herself well, and it is good defending from Nigeria to make the goal as small as possible for Daly.
England 0-0 Nigeria
England staging a bit of a counter-punch now after being under the cosh for a little while.

Good save. It was a great ball in and Daly just, for the first time this match, is left free in the box. It's well watched by the keeper.
England 0-0 Nigeria
Chiamaka Nnadozie is drawn into another save!
The ball is fired to the near post from the corner and then drops to Rachel Daly for a flashing effort that the keeper is well-placed to parry.
England 0-0 Nigeria
Lauren James is capable of the spectacular. She goes for a very ambitious volley in the box from a cross from deep on the right. She connects well and the ball takes a nick off a defender before hurtling over. Corner.

The Nigerian Super Falcons so far looking unfazed by England and are looking very much the better side..have had several chances and are unfortunate not to be ahead
Papi Ogban
I hate to say this but this speed of play is far too slow, too many loose passes. James has too have more freedom.
Pat
England just can't get the basics right. Poor passing, poor shape and poor control.

The Nigerian fans in the corner beside Chiamaka Nnadozie's goal have started on the drums. They have had five shots on goal so far - at the other end - while that strike from Alessia Russo was England's first.

I was watching one of England's training videos where they had to bend the ball into one of the small goals.
That's what Russo needed to do, whip the ball around the keeper.
England 0-0 Nigeria
Anita Asante
Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 Live
Nigeria have already thrown some warning shots, really exploiting the spaces in behind Daly and Bronze when they move forward.
England need to get a foothold and find their rhythm in possession.
England 0-0 Nigeria
Chance!
Finally, England get to test Chiamaka Nnadozie after a mistake at the back.
Alessia Russo fires an effort first time from range, but the Super Falcon's keeper is equal to it with a diving save and gather.
