    27'
    OFF THE POST!
    The Dutch are living dangerously here. They only half-clear a corner to the edge of the area, where Cascarino hits a spinning low volley that clatters the post with Van Domselaar rooted. Netherlands, who are living dangerously here, scramble the loose ball away.
    26'
    CHANCE
    A shocker of a pass from Van de Donk is intercepted by Geyoro, who leads a four on four break for France. She slides a pass through to Malard in the area, who shoots on the turn but well wide of the near post.
    23'
    BIG CHANCE!
    Diani crosses from the right, and for the first time tonight Van Domselaar hesitates; the cross is awkwardly stabbed out to near the penalty spot, where Toletti has a free look but blazes her shot wildly over the bar. That's a huge chance.
    22'
    GOOD SAVE!
    Cascarino cuts in from the left, goes past Wilms and shoots from 20 yards out. Once more, Van Domselaar makes a smart save to bat the ball away from danger.
    20'
    ANOTHER CORNER
    Cascarino shimmies to the byline and crosses, with Van der Gragt there to put the ball behind again. The pressure is mounting on this Dutch back line.
    19'
    CROSSING PROBLEMS
    Spitse now scrambles the ball behind for a corner as another cross causes panic in the Dutch defence.
    17'
    GOOD SAVES!
    A deflected cross is shanked by Janssen, and forces a smart reflex save from Van Domselaar to push the ball away from goal. Seconds later she saves well again as Bilbaut has a pop from outside the area.
    15'
    CHANCE!
    France clear from the edge of their own box and break rapidly, with Malard sending Diani away through the inside right channel. Diani runs it all the way to the edge, backing up Janssen as she does so, before shooting low; Van Domselaar gathers at the second attempt.
    13'
    SET PIECES
    France win a free kick in a dangerous position on the left corner of the area. Toletti lofts it to the back post, where Miedema heads it behind for a corner/
    12'
    THE DUTCH SETTLE
    They're getting on the ball more in midfield now, and this is settling into an absorbing encounter. Two high quality sides here, but both highly wary of the other.
    9'
    CORNER
    Good work from Miedema works a shooting chance for Spitse, who sees her 25-yard drive deflect behind for a corner.
    6'
    GLIMMER
    Casparij works some space on the left and crosses dangerously into the area. It's a bouncing ball and Karchaoui gets to it first, heading it awkwardly back to Peyraud-Magnin.
    4'
    BOSSING IT
    The Dutch have barely had the ball yet, it's been all France so far.
    1'
    QUICK START!
    France are out of the blocks quickly. Diani slides a ball through to Geyoro in the French area, but she scuffs her shot on the turn and Van Domselaar gathers comfortably.
    1st Half
    1'
    PEEP!
    We're underway.
    19:54
    HERE WE GO
    The teams stride out into the New York Stadium. A quick blast of the anthems and we'll be underway.
    19:50
    ATMOSPHERE
    We've got some game on here, and a crowd that sound like they know it. The Dutch fans have virtually taken over Rotherham today.

    ENTERTAINERS
    Netherlands boss Mark Parsons is still waiting for his team to deliver the kind of high octane performance that won them this tournament in 2017. Even if they haven't dominated games as yet they've been involved in some crackers so far, with their wins over Portugal and Switzerland both in the balance late in the piece. Miedema, who missed both those matches, is back; will she be the difference?
