120+12' Tamires is replaced by Godoi. 3-2
120+11' Daphne van Domselaar comes on as a concussion substitute as Anneke Borbe is stretchered off. Will bring news on how she is as we get it. 3-2

90+6' Rodriguez comes on for Andressa, who is booked for walking very slowly off the field. The sort of walk you would do if someone you don't want to speak to is walking in front of you. 2-2
90+4' Codina moves into midfield, with Kyra Cooney-Cross and Victoria Pelova on the bench. 2-2
90+3' Laia Codina comes on for Kim Little. Codina into midfield, or McCabe? 2-2

90+1' Extra time is underway. 2-2

It has gone to VAR!

46' The second half is up and running. 1-1
Maanum replaces Blackstenius at half time. Erike comes on for Gi Fernandes, who had been carded.

20' What a save Anneke Borbe! That is superb to keep out Duda Sampaio's drive, tipping it onto the crossbar. 1-0
19' The wrong decision there from Blackstenius who was played in by McCabe and tried to find Russo rather than taking a touch and going for goal. Her pass was over-hit, and behind for a goal kick. 1-0

1' We're underway in the Champions Cup final! 0-0
Arsenal are in their home red and white colours, with Corinthians in black.
Here come the teams in front of a good crowd at the Emirates! It's time for the first ever FIFA Women's Champions Cup final.
Here's Renee Slegers on Corinthians' threat: "Their physicality, their hold up play, combination play, their dribblers and speed. So, there's a lot of things that they can do with their players to go forward as well. But I think their big weapon is that they are all together and disciplined in their defence."
It's the European champions vs the champions of South America in a battle to be the first team to lift the FIFA Women's Champions Cup. Can they call themselves the best in the world after winning two games? That's up for debate, but this will mean a lot to both teams. That little bit more to Corinthians, one might think.
Elsewhere today, Chelsea were thrashed 5-1 by Manchester City at the Etihad as City made it 11 points clear at the top of the Women's Super League.
Brazilian giants Corinthians are unchanged from Wednesday, and they will be backed once more by a sizeable away contingent.
Arsenal beat AS FAR 6-0 to reach the final, whilst Gabi Zanotti's late goal helped Corinthians past Gotham. The American side beat AS FAR 4-0 in the third-place play-off earlier today.
Katie McCabe, Emily Fox, Kim Little and Alessia Russo all come into the starting lineup.
Stina Blackstenius starts upfront with Alessia Russo in the ten as Arsenal name, as expected, a full-strength side. Leah Williamson and Daphne van Domselaar are back on the bench.
Renee Slegers has told Sky Sports that Taylor Hinds is in a protective boot after injuring her foot yesterday.
Corinthians subs: Nicole, Rillary, Gisela, Godoi, Fuso, Albuquerque, Monteiro, Paola, Juliete, Rhaizza, Dayana, Mineira, Jhonson, Nogueira, Erika.
Corinthians: Leticia; Tamires, Leticia Teles, Thais Ferreira, Gi Fernandes; Aquino, Duda Sampaio, Ana Vitoria, Andressa, Jaqueline; Gabi Zanotti.
Arsenal subs: Van Domselaar, Williams, Liddiard, Codina, Williamson, Maanum, Kelly, Foord, Pelova, Holmberg, Cooney-Cross, Harwood.
Arsenal: Borbe; McCabe, Catley, Wubben-Moy, Fox; Little, Caldentey; Smith, Russo, Mead; Blackstenius.
It's Arsenal Women vs Corinthians, kick-off is 6pm, and team news is in.
Good evening and welcome to Emirates Stadium for the first ever FIFA Women's Champions Cup final.
