FULL-TIME!
A Lukas Hradecky own goal and a late Romelu Lukaku strike sees Belgium beat Finland 2-0 in Saint Petersburg to finish Group B as winners after making it three wins out of three. Denmark are through after finishing second and will face Wales in the last 16. Finland finish third and are in real danger of not qualifying for the knockout stages, they will have to wait and see.

Witsel tries to slip Chadli down the inside left channel in the box but his pass is too heavy and skids out for a goal kick. Belgium are continuing to push and probe but Finland are still soaking it all up.

VAR RULES THE GOAL OUT! Lukaku was offside and there's a roar in the stadium! It's a lifeline for Finland!
65'
GOAL!! Lukaku fires Belgium in front with his third goal of the tournament! De Bruyne plays a cutting through ball into Lukaku's path... he takes a nice touch before slotting the ball into the bottom right corner off his left boot. As it stands Finland are out! However, IT'S GONE TO VAR VERY LATE ON...
63'
BRILLIANT SAVE! It's the save of the night from Hradecky who gets down low to deny Hazard's left-footed strike from point-blank range! Hazard cannot quite believe that was stopped!
62'
SHOT! Finland have their first chance and it comes out to Kamara, but his low shot is straight at Courtois who can clutch the ball to his chest.
60'
SUB! Sparv comes off for Schuller. Denmark currently lead 2-0 against Russia which sees them one point behind Finland and would see both Scandinavian nations progress to the Round of 16 as it stands. If Finland lose then Denmark will be through.

SHOT! A clever low pass from a corner into the box lands at the feet of Hazard at the near post, but his low shot is straight at Hradecky.
55'
Chadli has a bit of space on the edge of the area, but he cannot get sufficient power behind his shot and rolls into the arms of Hradecky. It's worth remembering Finland kept six clean sheets in their nine Euro 2020 qualifying games.
53'
SHOT! Hazard has a go from range but he fires into the side netting.
52'
De Bruyne attempts a tight one-two with Lukaku but again Finland clear. Finland are sitting deeper and deeper. Chadli's teasing cross into the box evades Lukaku and is cleared behind by Uronen for a corner. Hazard plays an outswinger but Toivio heads clear.
