"Ireland have enjoyed most of the ball as we pass the ten-minute mark, but have yet to really test Belgian number one Nicky Evrard."
"Just moments ago, Denise O'Sullivan broke forward and slotted Kyra Carusa through on the right."
"The forward could have took the shot on herself but squared across to Emily Murphy, but the Newcastle player wasted the chance and shot wide. That was a big miss."
At the ten-minute mark Ireland had enjoyed most of the ball but had not yet seriously tested Belgian number one Nicky Evrard. Denise O'Sullivan broke forward and played a through ball to Kyra Carusa on the right. Kyra Carusa could have taken the shot herself but instead squared the ball across to Emily Murphy. Emily Murphy, the Newcastle player, failed to convert and shot wide, wasting a clear scoring opportunity. The miss represented a big chance lost for Ireland and left Belgium largely unthreatened despite Irish possession.
