Good afternoon, and welcome to our LIVE coverage of the Women's World Cup final between the USA and the Netherlands.

Rapinoe lashes in a cross and van Lunteren blocks it - out for a corner.

Twelve minutes gone and the USA haven't scored. For the first time this tournament. The Netherlands are essentially the world champions.

Ertz has taken Dominique Bloodworth's foot away - free kick for the Netherlands and taken by the Dutchwoman who's playing full back today.

Free kick on the right, 10 yards outside the box, and easily cleared.

OOF! Booking for Spitse, that looked two-footed on Lavelle.

Hefty ball forward from Rapinoe, out into touch on the right.

U-S-A! U-S-A! It's loud in Lyon.

The USA have taken to lofting some high and long balls forward to chase.

Netherlands working the ball around the middle well, and van de Donk swings in a ball towards the left of the box and the head of Beerensteyn, but it's cleared.

Martens on the break, and she whacks it out to the right miles away from Beerensteyn.

Rapinoe on the left looking to work Dunn in, but she can't keep possession.

The USA are gently prodding early on up both flanks.

The USA get us under way.

There is a MASSIVE cheer in the stadium as the camera closes in on Rapinoe's face, stock-still and not singing the anthem.

'Seven Nation Army' is playing. That means it's time for the teams to head out.

Quarter of an hour to go! Loads of American fans in the stands.
