    Spain 1-0 England

    The players are waiting around as VAR have a good look at this.

    The referee has been called over to the screen and we know what this usually means.

    I'd be surprised if this didn't go to VAR.

    It struck Kiera Walsh's arm.

    Spain 1-0 England

    Spain come forward, it's pinging around in the box and oh no. This doesn't look good.

    The Spain bench are protesting for a hand ball. It looks like it hits Keira Walsh's hand as Mariona Caldentey hits the strike in the penalty area.

    VAR will have a look at this.

    Pep Guardiola said that Aitana Bonmati is his favourite player in this Spain side and she is showing just why here.

    He even compared her to Andres Iniesta in her style of play, some compliment.

    Fortunate for England that it went just over the ball, but what a fantastic strike from Bonmati.

    But again Walsh was dispossessed in the midfield again by Hermoso, what a great performance she has had this evening for Spain.

    Aitana Bonmati strode past the midfield and it just seemed to open up for her.

    She has been outstanding, what a strike.

    Keira Walsh dispossessed in the middle of the park. Jenni Hermoso plays it through to Aitana Bonmati.

    Bonmati glides through the midfield and lets fly from 25-yards out but it's inches over the bar.

    Signs of life from England with the substitutions.

    Spain are going to make a substitution.

    On comes Oihane Hernandez in place of Alba Redondo.

    Here's that magnificent save from Mary Earps earlier.

    Rachel: We must do better, we can do better, we WILL do better. Keep the faith.

    Tim Senna: Pains me to say it but this is a quality Spain team. I think we're missing Ellen White too. Still a smash & grab win with this England squad wouldn't surprise me.

    Micki: This is all set up for Lauren James' redemption. C'mon England!

    This has been an utterly unpredictable World Cup. It's not even three weeks since Spain were hammered 4-0 in their final group game and many had Japan down to win the whole thing. La Roja are 30 minutes or so from getting their hands on the main prize.

    Spain 1-0 England

    England managing to create a few more opportunities here.

    Chloe Kelly causing trouble down the right, she won't stop working. But Spain are just masters of the technical passing game and they out-do England there to win the free kick.

    The fans in Croydon are keeping the faith. Everyone I’ve spoken to down here think England can turn this around.

    Jo Wilson thinks “the ladies are going to up their game and make it 2-1".

    "I'm a little bit nervous", says Anna Stevenson, "but the crowd is going wild. I'm going 2-1 England."

    If the reaction hadn't been provided by Laia Codina, it wouldn't have been a yellow card.

    Lauren Hemp has barely touched her. The referee has been sold one there.

    This is a side to England that we haven't seen so far in this tournament.

    You can see across the pitch there is a nervousness and frustration in the team.

    They need to find a way to get back into their rhythm, get into the good habits and play more instinctively, because that is when they are at their best.

    Lauren Hemp should have been putting that in the back of the net.

  18. YELLOW CARDpublished at 54 mins

    Spain 1-0 England

    Challenge from Lauren Hemp on Laia Codina, bit of a harsh booking to me.

    She's a little bit late but it doesn't look like Hemp actually makes any contact. First name in the book.

  19. CLOSE!published at 52 mins

    Some to-ing and fro-ing as England try to work the ball up the pitch but it just keeps pinging back towards the back-line.

    Chloe Kelly does so well down the right, what a run. She whips one in to Lauren Hemp but the forward's shot fires wide.

    She will be so disappointed with that, huge opportunity.

    Hemp runs onto a cross and makes a decent connection under pressure.Image source, Getty Images

    Charlie is watching the final in The Pilot pub in Chiswick with the Actonians Ladies Football Club and says England have “a bit of waking up to do”.

    She adds the Lionesses need more “oomph”, but “in Sarina we trust”.
