    The fan zone crowd are confident now.

  2. Post update

    Australia 2-0 Denmark

    I don't even need to look up from my laptop to know when Sam Kerr is on the ball, I can just tell by the increase in noise as soon as she touches it.

    Imagine if she gets a goal.

    Sam Kerr only has eyes for the ball.
  3. SUBSTITUTION

    A couple of changes for Denmark with time running out. On come Sanne Troelsgaard and Emma Snerle, replacing Amalie Vangsgaard and Karen Holmgaard.

    Australia 2-0 Denmark

    Anna Thompson

    BBC Sport at Stadium Australia in Sydney

    Most definitely the biggest cheers of the night as Sam Kerr takes to the pitch for her first bit of World Cup action.

    Sam Kerr runs onto the pitch for the first time in the tournament.
  6. SUBSTITUTION

    Australia 2-0 Denmark

    Here we go!

    Sam Kerr is on for her first appearance at her home World Cup.

    She replaces Hayley Raso, scorer of the second goal.

    Incredible noise!

    Sam Kerr waits on the sideline to come on to the pitch.
  7. 'Scary for the rest that Kerr is back'

    Australia 2-0 Denmark

    Sue Smith

    Former England international on BBC One

    First of all Australia winning without Sam Kerr is impressive.

    Now she's coming back - Scary!

    Great for Australia though

  8. Post update

    Australia 2-0 Denmark

    A big crowd here - 75,784 in attendance.

    Another impressive backing for the Australia team at this Women's World Cup.

    The noise is about to rise from that big crowd as Sam Kerr will be on any second.

  9. SUBSTITUTION

    Australia 2-0 Denmark

    Denmark have it all to do with a touch over 15 minutes remaining.

    Midfielder Josefine Hasbo is on for Kathrine Kühl.

  10. Kerr warming up

    Australia 2-0 Denmark

    Anna Thompson

    BBC Sport at Stadium Australia in Sydney

    Sam Kerr is warming up! Such is the size of the Olympic Stadium, there is plenty of room behind both goals for the teams to prepare substitutes.

    She might not be needed now after Australia go 2-0 up through Raso!

    Kerr jumped up and down and punched the air with the other subs when that goal went in.

  11. Post update

    Australia 2-0 Denmark

    Emma Smith

    BBC Sport in Melbourne

    There was a giant roar as images of Sam Kerr readying herself for action appeared on the big screen.

    But it was nothing compared to when the ball hit the net for the second Australian goal.

  12. 'Raso with the quality finish'

    Australia 2-0 Denmark

    Sue Smith

    Former England international on BBC One

    Raso was brilliant in that last game against Canada and has worked so hard for the team today.

    You thought when Fowler held the ball a bit longer, 'Has the chance gone?', but no.

    A great ball into Raso, who finds the quality with the finish.

    Rado celebrates her goal with teammate van Egmond.
  13. GOAL - Australia 2-0 Denmark

    Hayley Raso

    A fine goal!

    Mary Fowler is key to it as she clips a clever ball in for Emily van Egmond who, with her back to goal, tees up Hayley Raso to arrow a clinical finish into the back of the net.

    Australia have one foot in the quarter finals.

  14. Post update

    Australia 1-0 Denmark

    Two successive corners for Australia come to nothing and from the second Denmark break. Pernille Harder sends the ball into the box but Australia are quick to get back into shape and deal with the danger.

    Twenty minutes remaining.

  15. Post update

    Australia 1-0 Denmark

    There's a big roar from the Australia fans. The reason? Sam Kerr is about to come on!

    Sam Kerr gets ready to make her tournament debut.
  16. Post update

    Australia 1-0 Denmark

    Steph Catley plays the ball low into the box looking for Mary Fowler but Denmark are alert to the danger, although do concede a corner soon afterwards.

  17. 'Tenacious Foord'

    Australia 1-0 Denmark

    Sue Smith

    Former England international on BBC One

    Great play from Foord.

    How tenacious is she? Holds off the defender and then when she sees that bit of pace she tricks her way past to earn the free kick.

    Foord is fouled by Thomsen from behind.
  18. YELLOW CARD

    Australia 1-0 Denmark

    Janni Thomsen is the first player to be booked in the game as she pulls back Caitlin Foord, who had done really well to pull away and attempt the break.

    Australia have a free kick in a dangerous position on the left side of the box.

  19. Post update

    Australia 1-0 Denmark

    Oh a really good chance for Australia to get a second!

    The ball is worked to Caitlin Foord on the left side of the box and she squares it to Emily van Egmond, who lacks conviction in her flicked effort and a relieved Lene Christensen is able to hold the shot.

  20. 'Only takes one bit of quality'

    Australia 1-0 Denmark

    Sue Smith

    Former England international on BBC One

    It just goes to show when games are tight and tense like this it just takes one moment of quality to decided them.

    Caitlin Foord's goal in the first half was exactly that.
