Apologies we have had some technical issues but we are good to go from now!

FRANCE 4-3 ENGLAND - Captain Faye White has to score. But she strikes the bar and England's dream is over. Heartbreaking.

FRANCE 4-3 ENGLAND - Le Sommer puts Bardsley the wrong way.

FRANCE 3-3 ENGLAND - Rafferty, the World Cup debutant, puts it wide. That was awful.

FRANCE 3-3 ENGLAND - Bompastor is calm as well and sends Bardsley the wrong way.

FRANCE 2-3 ENGLAND - Casey Stoney right into the roof of the net. That looked like it was going over.

FRANCE 2-2 ENGLAND - Thiney is calmness personified as she dinks it into the corner.

FRANCE 1-2 ENGLAND - Karren Carney slots it down the middle. Nice.

FRANCE 1-1 ENGLAND - Goalscorer Bussaglia sticks hers out of Bardsley's reach.

FRANCE 0-1 ENGLAND - The injured Kelly Smith puts away a stunning spot-kick.

FRANCE 0-0 ENGLAND - Abily has her spot-kick saved by Bardsley. Brilliant!

FULL TIME. Penalties it is...

Where is this added time coming from? Corner for France...

Now Jill Scott goes down in agony with cramp. More treatment required. This is exhausting to watch.

We will have two added minutes here in Leverkusen.

Another decisive bit of goalkeeping from Bardsley as he races off her line to catch the ball. She has been very impressive today.

Just over a minute until we have penalties to settle this quarter-final.

Rafferty blasts the ball into the midriff of Delie and she is winded. Another casualty in this exhausting period of extra time.

Now Le Sommer heads over at the back post following a cross from Thomis. She had to do a lot better.

Ellen White smacks into Le Sommer, a risky move given she has been booked of course.

Faye White is cramping up and is in serious, serious pain. You really feel for her. It's a heroic effort.
