FT: Chile 1-1 Australia

Chile qualify for the semifinals of the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup, where they will face Portugal. Germany face Mexico in the other semifinal.

22:22 (IST)25 JUN 2017

90+2' The pressure on Chile is released as Bailey's cross from the right is headed well wide of goal, with Bravo barely moving a muscle.

22:21 (IST)25 JUN 2017

90' 4 minutes of stoppage time.

22:21 (IST)25 JUN 2017

90' Australia look to have given up the ghost - the Socceroos are playing at a very slow pace - there's no tempo at the moment, as Australia need two goals.

22:19 (IST)25 JUN 2017

87' Sanchez and Vidal work incredibly hard to ensure that Australia aren't comfortable when the Socceroos have possession. You can still see the Bielsa in this team, even after all these years!

22:15 (IST)25 JUN 2017

84' Chile attempt to kill the game off by passing the ball around the back, with Marcelo Diaz heavily involved in retaining possession.

22:12 (IST)25 JUN 2017

82' Eduardo Vargas is replaced by Marcelo Diaz for Chile - it seems Pizzi is holding on for the draw.

22:11 (IST)25 JUN 2017

Meanwhile Timo Werner has put Germany 3-1 up, they are all set to top this group, with Chile second.

22:10 (IST)25 JUN 2017

79' We have a man down as McGowan is bleeding from his head after challenging for an aerial ball with Vargas. It seems as though the Chilean caught him unintentionally with his elbow.

22:07 (IST)25 JUN 2017

76' WHAT ARE YOU DOING CLAUDIO?! Bravo comes out to force Kruse wide of goal, but then follows him out of the box to the right channel as well, but the Man City keeper is bailed out by his defender, who nicks the ball off Kruse's feet.

22:05 (IST)25 JUN 2017

74' SHOT! Martin Rodriguez nearly makes me bust out the old 'London buses' cliche as he shoots wide of goal in the box after working a yard of space on the left side.

22:03 (IST)25 JUN 2017

72' HOW DID HE MISS THAT?! Troisi chips a clever ball from the left to MacLaren in the box. The substitute has the goal at his mercy, but miscues his finish, with Bravo forcing him into a shot well wide off the post.

22:02 (IST)25 JUN 2017

72' Bailey Wright comes on for Trent Sainsbury

22:00 (IST)25 JUN 2017

70' HOW DID HE MISS?! Alexis with some incredible upper pace and strength to get past Milligan to the left byline and cut the ball back to Vargas, but he glances his header inches wide of the post!

21:59 (IST)25 JUN 2017

67' Vidal does brilliantly to pass the ball to Mena with a diving header. He sends in a cross from the left wing to Vargas at the far post and the Chilean forward gets a flick on to Rodriguez running past Sainsbury in the box. He manages to finish past Ryan in the Australian goal with a deflected effort and score his first goal for his country! Chile 1-1 Australia!

21:57 (IST)25 JUN 2017

67' GOAAAL MARTIN RODRIGUEZ!

21:56 (IST)25 JUN 2017

65' Troisi has all the time in the world in midfield to line up a shot from range, and the Aussie goal-scorer hammers a left-footed shot that flies inches over the top corner, with Bravo looking standed.

21:55 (IST)25 JUN 2017

Meanwhile, Germany lead Cameroon by a 2-0 scoreline, with the African side down to 10 men.

21:54 (IST)25 JUN 2017

21:52 (IST)25 JUN 2017

62' J Maclaren replaces Juric for Australia

21:51 (IST)25 JUN 2017

60' As things stand, Germany lead Group B with 7 points - they will face Mexico in the semifinals. Chile are tied with Australia on 4 points, but lead them on goal-difference - they will face Portugal in the semifinals.

21:50 (IST)25 JUN 2017

21:44 (IST)25 JUN 2017

54' Bravo iss on hand to deny Australia again - punching the ball clear from a corner. Chile can be grateful that their much-maligned goalkeeper has ensured that they are still in this game so far.

21:42 (IST)25 JUN 2017

52' NEARLY! Juric is breathing a sigh of relief that the whistle blew for offside after running clear of the Chile defence with Bravo making a great save from his shot.

21:41 (IST)25 JUN 2017

51' SAVE! Vargas takes a first-time shot after running on to a long ball from a narrow angle, but Ryan is on hand to punch the ball away.

42' GOOOAL JAMES TROISIIII!!!

21:12 (IST)25 JUN 2017
