  • 90'
    FT: USA 0-1 Canada!! All over in Kashima and Canada are through to the final!!! A 75th minute VAR penalty scored by Jessie Fleming was the difference. USA were the better side, but they were not really dangerous until the last half an hour when Rapinoe and Lloyd came on. Lloyd hit the crossbar in the closing stages, but the Canadians withstood plenty of pressure and took their chance.

    Back underway here!
  • 45'
    HT: USA 0-0 Canada! No score in Kashima in a half with few chances and it's a very fair score. USA started and ended the half on top while the Canadians had the better of the middle period. The Americans have been better overall, but the only real chance came for Canada when GK Naeher dropped an easy catch and collided with a teammate. That forced the goalie out of the game through injury. Back for more shortly!

  • 45'
    45+3: Morgan has an effort, but can't find the target.
  • 45'

    Six added minutes due to the injury to the USA GK.
  • 42'
    Still 0-0 and I think it will stay like that until HT.

  • 40'
    The USA earn another corner.
  • 37'
