We are watching nervously again as we come to the climax of this first half.
The ball has somehow stayed out.

It's Josie Green doing the goalkeeper's work there.
That was a certain goal and she chucks her body in the way.

What a block!
Janni Tomsen fires in a dangerous low cross from the right, and Pernille Harder looks sure to score from close range, but Josie Green does superbly to get in the way and deflect the ball from a corner.
Green stopped a certain goal there.

Wales are getting closer to a scalp against a top nation.
The last hurdle, to score a decisive chance, is the one that is proving the most difficult at the moment.
Denmark, who had it all their own way in the opening 15 minutes, have certainly been given something to think about.

Wales are happy to take their time whenever they have a goal-kick or throw-in.
It seems they'd be happy to keep this game goalless at the break and try and pinch a winner in the second half.

The margins are so fine in these games.
Watching Wales, it doesn't get any easier. It's full of stress.

Ceri Holland in the thick of the action again, driving forward and playing a ball to the left for Lily Woodham, who blasts a shot over.
Elise Hughes feels she should have crossed.

For a forward as good as Vangsgaard, you'd expect far better there.
That's a real lack of composure.

Big chance for Denmark as Amalie Vangsgaard is played through but, with plenty of time to pick her spot, the striker blazes over.

There's just a lack of conviction on that shot from Angharad James.

Wales repel another Danish attack and keep possession in their own half.
Angharad James then fires a long-range shot but it's straight at Maja Bay Ostergaard in the Denmark goal.
Rhian Wilkinson will take some encouragement from her team's first-half display.

This is a fascinating contest. If you had told me 10 minutes in that Wales would be doing all the talking after half an hour, I wouldn't have believed you!
Wales are having their say.

We seem to have grown in confidence.
At least now when we counter-attack, we're creating problems.

Once again, we see Ceri Holland's contribution.
She plays on the right wing and she's charging down the left wing.
It shows just how hard she's working to get into the game.

Good work from Ceri Holland, who spins into the Denmark penalty area and wins a corner, which she'll take from Wales' left.
Denmark clear the initial cross but Holland follows up with a dangerous ball to the back post, where Josie Green heads over.

For me, you have to question the standard of the officials.
They have to make sure they're in the right place to see that ball go over the line.
I don't understand how they can decide there's no VAR. For the men's side against Liechtenstein next week there will be VAR.

We've just had confirmation from the Football Association of Wales that goalline technology is not in use for this game.
That would explain Jess Fishlock's goal that wasn't.
