    It looks bleak for the Aussies now. They are just pumping the ball into the box but are not competing with the Brazilians in the air.

    Chance. Cristiane somehow manages to find a cross and the Brazilians nearly score. Marta rushes towards the back post but can't quite get there.

    Formiga is down and is receiving treatment.
    82'
    De Vanna runs through on goal but doesn't fancy her chances of beating Andreia and attempt to cross for Butt. The cross is too far behind the Aussie and the Brazilians are let off the hook.
    81'
    Marta and Cristiane exchange passes on the edge of the opposition area. Cristiane attempts to play her team-mate in but the ball is weak.
    80'
    Carroll pumps the ball long to Kerr who fails to control and loses possession for her team.
    79'
    Marta does fantastically well to keep a cross in play after being forced wide. Unfotunately for her, nobody is in the box and the Aussies clear.

    Strange decision from Jenny Palmqvist again. Rosana bursts into the Australian half and is hacked to the floor. Again the referee allows play to continue.

    De Vanna creates a little bit of space for herself on the edge of the opposition area. The Aussie shoots towards goal but it sails over.
