England are facing off against Austria as Women's Euro 2022 begins in the UK. Kick-off for the opening game is 8pm tonight with BBC broadcasting every single game exclusively. ENGLAND are taking on Austria on the opening day of Women's Euro 2022. You can tune in on BBC One or if you want to watch online you will be able to see all the action on iPlayer.

Minute-by-minute report: Euro 2022 is finally here. Join Gregg Bakowski for the latest on opening night.

The injury to Spain captain and Ballon d’Or winner Alexia Putellas has made some bookmakers bring England in to almost joint-favourites to win the tournament alongside Spain and it feels like the only thing that could derail England in Group A is the weight of expectation. We have a team of 23 players, this is the XI that starts, but we need everyone on matchday and all the other days. It probably frustrates journalists but it is great for keeping a lid on hype and protecting her players from the pressure. This is such a promising period for England. The manager really is top drawer.” The BBC coverage has just started and they have managed to get Natalie Portman on board to give a rousing monologue about the tournament. Stanway has a little burst up the right wing but as she tries to compose herself to curl in a cross, she is put under pressure and knocks the ball behind for a goal-kick. The teams emerge from the tunnel into the mist and din of Old Trafford. What a noise! She’s so good on the ball and plays with her head up all the time. It’s such a hard header to control though and the ball bounces up and off her head and over. 5 min: Williamson overplays at the back and Austria pick up possession and win a corner. Austria attack on the left and win a throw-in after a no-nonsense clearance from Bright. She curls a ball in towards her Man City teammate Ellen White but it is slightly behind her and she can’t get any power on it.

Follow all the action from Old Trafford as the Women's Euro 2022 kicks off with hosts England taking on Austria in Group A.

We know what it is and what to expect. I really think England are going to win the Euros this summer. We've put in the work over the last few weeks and ticked the boxes we needed to. Everybody has their own things in place to deal with it. Pressure is a privilege and we are embracing it. Good evening all, and welcome to our live blog as we bring you all the action from tonight's opening game of the Women's Euro 2022! England of course get their tournament underway this evening as they take on Austria in their opening group game, and we'll be here to take you through it all! Not only is tonight's game available to watch, but so are all of the Lionesses' matches in the tournament! I think the manager, Sarina Wiegman, will be a massive factor with her previous experience of winning it with Netherlands and I think she’ll bring that to England. With the likes of Spain, Germany and Denmark in Group B, England will have to get past another of the favourites in the last eight, but Williams - speaking to William Hill - is backing the experience of Sarina Wiegman will make the difference. The atmosphere is brilliant as we build up to the opening group game, with England aiming to make the perfect start against Austria. The Lionesses head into the competition as one of the favourites to go all the way and claim their first European Championship title.

Hosts England will kick off the UEFA Women's Euro 2022 against Austria this evening and talkSPORT will have full commentary from a sold-out Old Traffo.

England opened their Euro 2022 campaign against Austria in front of a packed Old Trafford.

Sheffield United had appeared to score in the first half but the goal was not awarded as the goal-line technology had faltered. The decision to award Mead's goal was ultimately the correct one. A referee receives a buzz on their watch from goalline technology when the ball has crossed the goal line. Following a brief VAR check, referee Marta Huerta da Aza confirmed that the Lionesses had taken the lead. England were involved in an unusual moment in their Euro 2022 opener against Austria as VAR double-checked a decision made by the goal-line technology. But the restart was then paused while VAR ensured the decision was correct in scenes that have never been seen before.

With all that in mind, it promises to be quite the occasion. After all, this is exactly the kind of stage the women’s game has been building towards. England begin their UEFA Euro 2022 campaign this evening by kicking off the tournament’s opener with a game against an Austria side who made the semi-finals five years ago.

15 mins from kickoff: Part of the reason for England's reshuffling at the back, with Williamson in the heart of defence as opposed to central midfield, is the availability of Fran Kirby. The masterful Chelsea playmaker is in Wiegman's XI, three months on from her participation in the tournament being in doubt. Now the hosts get a move going as Bright booms a ball out to Hemp on the left. The England boss led her native Netherlands to European glory in 2017. Bright get the block in at full stretch but it was far too easy to get the cross in. 15th minute: England play nicely out from their own half, with Walsh producing her best work of the contest so far. Kirby helps it towards Hemp but the Arsenal goalkeeper is out in a flash to touch over. Brilliant chest control from the Arsenal star, and deft lifted finish against the underside of the crossbar... Kirby is instrumental again, slipping a cute pass to Hemp. The winger's cross is met by White, but her diving header flies wide. Austria give the ball away in their own box, with White making a nuisance of herself again. Hickelsberger-Füller cuts in from the right and arrows a shot towards the bottom left corner. They win another corner and the towering Bright is there to deal with it once more. Wiegman’s side could not bring their free-scoring form to the big stage and there are probably still a few issues of midfield balance to iron out.

An occasion to remember, and a result that goes down in history.

England kick off their European Championship campaign with a 1-0 win over Austria.

Kelly was particularly lively, forcing a corner with one of her first acts on the ball, while Russo was just shy of connecting to dangerous Hemp free-kick from just yards out. - White – 5 A deeply frustrating night. The next game against Norway will tell us a lot more about how seriously England should be taken at this Euros. It’s worth remembering they only beat Austria 1-0 in their most recent meeting before this, and that interrupted what seemed like a constant run of free scoring. England had tried to use her as an aerial threat, but every cross was either collected by Zinsberger, or White could not get enough power on it and put two excellent opportunities wide. Some of Ellen White’s greatest contributions came from her pressing, setting Kirby away for a first-time pass that very nearly resulted in the Lionesses doubling their lead. It had already happened once with Lauren Hemp and Williamson had to adapt quickly to a lot less time on the ball.
