56'
RARE SORTIE FORWARDS
Summanen works it out to Engman on the right, but her cross is overcooked and sails out past the back post.
55'
GOOD BLOCK!
Huth comes forward down the left for Germany now, and slips a pass to Dallman just inside the Finnish area. Dallman unloads but it's charged down by Kuikka.
53'
GUESS WHERE THIS ATTACK COMES FROM
Germany get into the Finnish area on the right again, with Dabritz shimmying her way to the byline, but her cross is straight at Talaslahti.
51'
CROSS, CROSS, CROSS...
Germany win two quick corners in succession, but Finland deal with the ball in each time and clear.
As for Popp, she's now scored in every game at Euro 2022.
48'
GOAL! FINLAND 0 GERMANY 2 (POPP 48)
It's another cross from the right, and another German goal ensues. The substitutes combine as Anyomi slips it to Hendrich on the wing. She fires it to the back post where Popp thumps a downward header through Talsaslahti and into the net.

OOF
Kleinherne catches a late one form Summanen, who then accidentally treads on her hand. That looks painful, but Kleinherne is ok to continue.

End of 1st Half

PEEP!
That's half-time, and Germany lead. It's still 0-0 between Denmark and Spain, so as things stand it will be Spain facing England in the quarters on Wednesday.
45'
GREAT RUN
Buhl dazzles again, picking the ball up on the left, cutting in lazily and lashing a shot at goal. It drifts, hits the corner flag and stays in; Germany eventually get the ball to Dabritz at the back post, who sends an awkward header wide of goal.
43'
GREAT GOAL
It's no surprise that Germany's goal came through the right channel, they've been making hay down there. That's seven goals in the tournament for them now, with none conceded as yet.
40'
GOAL! FINLAND 0 GERMANY 1 (KLEINHERNE 40)
This is a beauty! Huth reverses a lovely pass to Gwinn just inside the area on the right. Gwinn stands up a cross into the six-yard box, where Kleinherne is waiting to nod a simple header into the corner.

DALLMAN SHOOTS
Finland are getting the breaks with the loose balls here, as a shot from Dallman rattles around the area before trickling into the hands of Talaslahti again.
37'
BUHL RULES
She goes on another sortie, rolling one defender on the left wing and charging 40 yards into the area. Buhl's cross is too close to Talaslahti though, and is easily gathered.
34'
LULL
Gwinn is having treatment, so both sets of players take the opportunity to gulp some water. Elsewhere in the group, it's still goalless between Spain and Denmark.
32'
CHANCE FOR FINLAND
They find a rare break and it's three on two. Engman switches a lovely ball to Sallstrom, who is free on the left of the area. Her first touch is poor though, and Doursoon gets the tackle in before she can shoot.
30'
QUICK BREAK
Dallman ploughs through the middle, pushing the Finnish defence back to their own area. She lays it to the right where Huth gathers and shoots, but it's straight at Talaslahti.
28'
SO CLOSE!
Hegering has a yahoo from 25 yards out. It's drifting wide, but Popp gets the faintest of glancing headers and sends it inches wide of the far post!
27'
CLOSE!
Dabritz is the latest to get in on the right of the Finnish area. Her cross to the front post is latched onto by Popp, who pokes it just wide of goal from six yards out.
25'
MEGGED!
Glorious play, this. Summanen gets to a loose ball first in the Finnish half, poking it through the legs of Lattwein before launching a brilliant 50 yard ball over the top to Kemppi! It doesn't result in a chance as Hegering blocks the shot.
24'
CHANCE!
Dabritz slides a nice pass through to Gwinn, whose first touch sees her drive into the right of the area. She shoots, but the angle is tight and it doesn't go close.
