61 min: Moments later Christiansen is caught again and she immediately glares disapprovingly at Babjide, who committed the foul.

75 min: It’s such a scrappy game now. All fouls and set pieces.

Christiansen curls another ball in from the wide-left position but it fails to get past the first defender AGAIN. This is infuriating.
