    It's almost silent in Brisbane. Nerves aplenty.

  2. Australia 0-0 France

    This is the second penalty shoot-out I have reported on this World Cup. The first was Sweden v USA, featured some incredible misses, and had the most ludicrous ending you will ever see.

    Let's see if my heart can take another one.

  3. FULL-TIME

    Australia 0-0 France

    And penalties we go to! The tension is unbearable!

  4. Australia 0-0 France

    Gilly Flaherty
    Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    We could carry on playing for another 30 minutes and I think it would still be 0-0. Penalties is the fairest way of splitting these teams.

  5. Australia 0-0 France

    Australia clear.

  6. Australia 0-0 France

    France look to win it at the death but Eugenie Le Sommer's shot is straight at the keeper.

    It's palmed and then cleared behind for a late, late France corner.

  7. Australia 0-0 France

    The referee looks at her watch. Still we go on.

  8. Australia 0-0 France

    France have a free-kick in their own box. That should be that.

  9. SUBSTITUTION

    Australia 0-0 France

    Eve Perisset is also on for Elisa de Almeida for France. One minute remains.

  10. 'I'm not having it'

    Australia 0-0 France

    Gilly Flaherty
    Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    If I'm the goalkeeper coming off I'm absolutely fuming. You trust me for 120 minutes and when it comes to penalties you're bringing me off. No chance, I'm not having it.

    What a twist this is!

    Solene Durand, this could be your time to shine.

  12. SUBSTITUTION

    Australia 0-0 France

    Boos ring out as Pauline Peyraud-Magnin is replaced by stopper Solene Durand.

    Peyraud-Magnin kisses the top of Durand's head for luck as she comes off.

  13. Australia 0-0 France

    France are going to change their keeper!!!!!

  14. Australia 0-0 France

    France come forward but Vicki Becho's shot is straight at Mackenzie Arnold.

  15. INJURY TIME

    Australia 0-0 France

    It's cleared. Four minutes added on.

  16. Australia 0-0 France

    Australia have a very late corner.

  17. Australia 0-0 France

    BBC Sport at Brisbane Stadium

    Selma Bacha slams the turf and pulls her shirt over her face after missing that shot. She's furious with herself.

    Emotions are running so, so high.

  18. Australia 0-0 France

    Selma Bacha smashes a shot well over. She beats the turf in frustration.

    Penalties loom and to be honest, I reckon that'll be a fair way of deciding this one. It's on a knife-edge.

  19. Australia 0-0 France

    Two more minutes plus added time. Will we have a winner?

  20. Australia 0-0 France

    Selma Bacha is quickly closed down by Cailtin Foord and it's cheered like a goal by the Australian fans.

    The hosts win the ball back but Cortnee Vine catches Wendie Renard with a high boot and France are given a free-kick.
