That's all from us for today but we will be back tomorrow as England get their Women's World Cup campaign up and running.
See you later!
Spain cruised to victory in their Women's World Cup opener as they dominated Costa Rica in Wellington.
Valeria del Campo scored an own goal to put Spain ahead, before Aitana Bonmati curled in a second two minutes later.
Esther Gonzalez added a third after a header against the crossbar by Jennifer Hermoso, who then had a penalty saved by Daniela Solera.
Olga Carmona hit the bar and Solera made a number of fine saves to restrict Spain to three goals.
And here's the highlights of Canada's draw with Nigeria, in which Christine Sinclair missed out on becoming the first player to score at six Fifa World Cups.
If you can't wait until tonight for highlights, here's the best of the action from Switzerland's win against the Philippines.
It feels weird to be saying at 10:40am that that is it for the live football today, but that is it for the live football today.
The action continues tomorrow morning with USA v Vietnam, which you can watch coverage of from 01:45 BST.
England get their Women's World Cup campaign up and running against Haiti at 10:30 BST tomorrow, and we'll have highlights of that game on BBC One tomorrow at 22:30 BST.
Meanwhile, highlights of today's games are on BBC Three at 21:05 BST.
FT: Spain 3-0 Costa Rica
Spain had 46 attempts on goal, 46!
In contrast, Costa Rica had one.

Steph Houghton

Daniela Solera was really impressive throughout the game.
Especially in the second half, Costa Rica really showed resilience and determination and put a little bit of pride out there which was shown in the performance but especially from the goalkeeper, I think she was outstanding.
Spain could have created more clear cut opportunities but when they did, she was always there to make those saves when she needed to for her team.

Fara Williams

I think given the first half performance and the dominance that Spain had over Costa Rica, the goals that they had scored, the chances that they created over the 90 minutes, you would have expected a bigger score line than 3-0.
Credit to Costa Rica in the second half, they came out and played more. Maybe in doing that it made it a bit more difficult for Spain.
They need to be more clinical, the chances created don't compare with the conversion.

All the goals came in the first half, here's a reminder of them.
Spain 3-0 Costa Rica
All over and Spain are up and running with a comfortable win against Costa Rica.
The goals were flowing in the first half and they even saw a penalty saved but they took their foot off the gas in a subdued second half.
Still, it is very much job done with a clean sheet and no injuries to important players.
Spain 3-0 Costa Rica
One final Spain attack breaks down and that looks like being it for further chances in this game.

Sue Smith
Former England international on BBC Two
There's no doubt that Spain have completely dominated the game.
They've been the better side and they should have scored more goals.
Spain 3-0 Costa Rica
Few people look as hungry for a goal as Olga Carmona. She's had a fair number of shots, particularly from range, and another from outside the box is blocked.

Sue Smith
Former England international on BBC Two
Jenni Hermoso will be really disappointed with her missed penalty but her overall performance, her movement has been great, her touch, her link up-play, has been excellent.
Spain 3-0 Costa Rica
Into the first of five minutes of stoppage time. Will we see a goal in this half?
Spain 3-0 Costa Rica
Spain have had 106 touches inside the opposition box, compared to just four for Costa Rica.
Spain 3-0 Costa Rica
Another change for Spain as Oihane Hernández replaces Ona Batlle for the final couple of minutes.
Spain 3-0 Costa Rica
Five minutes to go until full time. From an entertainment perspective the second half has been a disappointment but Spain know they had done what they needed to do in the first half. No point exerting energy unnecessarily with bigger games to come.
