Full time: Spain 6-2 Belgium<\/h2>\n

Well if the 5-0 win against Portugal was a statement<\/strong>, Spain have more than underlined it with a clinical win against Belgium. Yes they were at times carved open by their opponents but they always had the right response. Belgium will have to wait for tonight\u2019s game between Italy and Portugal to see if they remain in the competition. A reminder of those permutations in a second.<\/p>\n

90 + 3 min<\/strong>: Putellas on the hunt for a hat trick sends it over the bar. She is now top of the Golden Boot standings as while Gonzalez also has three goals, Putellas has two assists.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

90 + 1 min<\/strong>: There will be four minutes of added time.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

90 min<\/strong>: I don\u2019t know if I have ever typed this fast in my life, what an absolute cracker of a game. Action everywhere you look, no time for a breather.<\/p>\n

NO GOAL! Spain 6-2 Beligum<\/h2>\n

It is ruled out for offside.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

The goal is being checked for offside<\/strong>, Spain were is disarray there.<\/p>\n

GOAL! Spain 6-3 Belgium (Cayman, 87)<\/h2>\n

I cannot keep up.<\/strong><\/p>\n

That came from a corner again<\/strong>, the rebound into the box is flicked in by Putellas.<\/p>\n

86 min<\/strong>: 7, 961 people in the stadium this evening, I feel they could have used bigger stadiums for some of the group games this tournament. They are all being packed out. Spain make another change with Carmona off for Ouahabi.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

84 min<\/strong>: I just cannot see anyone but Spain winning this tournament come the end of the month. They are just on another level, even when they go behind within a minute or two they score themselves. Elite mentality.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

82 min<\/strong>: The goal is her last action as Paralluelo comes on for her.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

Lichtfus had just saved an attempt from Pina<\/strong> before she got it back and absolutely whacked it home. Huge. Very similar to the one she scored against Chelsea in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

GOAL! Spain 5-2 Belgium (Pina, 81)<\/h2>\n

What a goal.<\/strong><\/p>\n

80 min<\/strong>: Belgium makes more changes with Teulings is off for Blom and Missipo is on for Toloba.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

78 min<\/strong>: Jeez Louise, or should I say Janice as Cayman launches a massive effort with Nanclares needing to make a great save to keep it out. Belgium not giving up.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

77 min<\/strong>: My goodness Patri that would\u2019ve been sensational. A lovely lofted ball almost beat Lichtfus but it grazes the post.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

76 min<\/strong>: Belgium playing a bit fast and loose at the back, some miscommunication almost sees Spain pounce on their fifth.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

74 min<\/strong>: Spain look as though they are playing with Belgium as though a cat does with a mouse now. Before anymore game play, Spain make two changes with Gonzalez and Caldentey off for Martin-Prieto and Del Castillo.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

72 min<\/strong>: Spain win a corner and the delivery once again causes chaos but it\u2019s eventually cleared. Phil Norton has emailed:<\/p>\n

Soggy chips bad, crisp chips good. If you\u2019re trying to avoid filling yourself with grease, you can toss the potatoes in oil, and then use an air fryer. Skinny a.k.a. shoestring chips are an abomination. Give me what the Americans call steak fries.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

71 min<\/strong>: Wullaert created a good attack with Spain\u2019s defence in disarray but Belgium can\u2019t get anything from it. they are then immediately up the other end with the ball on a plate for Putellas but her header is just wide. It\u2019s just beautiful football.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

69 min<\/strong>: I can\u2019t imagine being a Belgian defender after conceding four goals already and the likes of Salma Paralluelo are still to come on the pitch. Before any potential changes they have to contain the threats on pitch with a Caldentey effort just wide.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

67 min<\/strong>: Belgium need to get something going and quick but they seem to have gone down a gear in the last five minutes, while Spain only feel like they are in third gear.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

65 min<\/strong>: Belgium make a change with Dhont on for Eurlings.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

64 min<\/strong>: That was almost fifth for Spain on three separate occasions, among them a powerful strike from Putellas. The Belgian defence holding for now. The resulting corner sees the ball repelled again but it feels like the scoring is this game is not over.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

63 min<\/strong>: Belgium have a lot of work to do now to get something from this game.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

The delivery was good<\/strong> and Paredes headed it into the path, it\u2019s frantically pinballed before Caldentey gets it in.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

GOAL! Spain 4-2 Belgium (Caldentey, 61)<\/h2>\n

Pina sends it in again and Caldentey has it in.<\/strong><\/p>\n

60 min<\/strong>: Pina sends it in and Lichtfus tips it over the bar, that was almost all the way in. Another corner to come.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

60 min<\/strong>: A nice ball was sent through to Eurlings but the weight of the pass has too much on it for her to get a clean strike. Up the other end Spain win a corner.<\/p>\n

Share<\/p>\n

59 min<\/strong>: Belgium have not faded after conceding quite quickly after scoring, they are still up for the fight, it\u2019s just their final touches that need to be a little more clinical.<\/p>\n
