FT: Liverpool 3-0 Villarreal. LIVERPOOL ARE THROUGH TO THE UEFA EUROPA LEAGUE FINAL. An own goal from Soriano and goals from Sturridge and Lallana cement a 3-1 win on aggregate. Another magical night at Anfield.

90+3' Denis Suarez fouls Moreno and is booked.

90+3' SHOT! Lallana with a turn and strike that Areola does well to save.

90+1' Allen shoots at goal, with 'You'll never walk alone' ringing out around Anfield

90' 3 minutes of added time

89' Beneke comes on to replace Firmino, who's afforded a standing ovation.

87' SAVE! Sturridge is absolutely clear on the right but Areola saves with his feet to stop the Englishman's shot.

86' Anfield is bouncing! The stadium has witnessed another great European comeback and can look forward to a trip to Basel.

82' Joe Allen comes on for Coutinho, with Klopp shoring things up.

81' Liverpool are heading to the Europa League Final! Coutinho with a wonderful run to the left byline and his cutback is scuffed by Sturridge but Lallana does well to twist and toe the ball into the net from two yards out. Liverpool 3-0 Villarreal

81' GOAL LALLANAAAAAAA!!!

80' Sturridge does it again! The Englishman works a yard of space on the right edge of the box, but shoots over from a narrow angle instead of crossing.

79' Sturridge earns the ire of his teammates when he opts to shoot instead of passing to an overlapping teammate in space. Jurgen Klopp does not look impressed on the touchline.

77' Denis Suarez earns a corner after some good work on the right wing. However, Villarreal spurn the chance to threaten, with Liverpool clearing with ease.

74' SHOT! Firmino lets fly with his left foot from range, requiring Areola to palm the ball away. Liverpool enjoying their football now, with the Yellow Submarines sinking fast.

73' Coutinho's effort is straight at the wall, with Liverpool being pulled up for offside after recycling the ball.

72' Liverpool have a free-kick from a dangerous position. Can they put the game to bed?

71' Victor Ruiz is sent off for a second yellow! A late stamp on Lallana earns the Villarreal his marching orders.

70' Liverpool look quite comfortable in possession, with Villarreal unable to steal the ball off the Reds.

69' Adrian Lopez comes on for Soldado. Can the first leg scorer repeat the trick?

67' While Sturridge might have scored, the situation is still perilous, with a goal from Villarreal enough to send them through. Bakambu nearly does so, but Kolo Toure marshalls him well in the box, earning a goal kick. Great from the veteran Ivorian.

64' Mariano has scored for Sevilla in the other game. Sevilla lead 3-1 on the night and 5-3 on aggregate. The Spanish side is surely in another European final!

63' Firmino sends Sturridge clear in the box with a lovely pass, and the Englishman finishes with a low drive that creeps into the net. Liverpool 2-0 Villarreal.

63' GOAL STURRIDGE!!!

61' Just as I say that, a fantastic tackle from Victor Ruiz denies Liverpool from getting a shot off on target. Moments later, Coutinho and Sturridge counter attack, with the Englishman's shot on goal from the right edge of the box being saved by Areola.

60' Anfield is a bit quiet, with both sides looking a bit flat as Liverpool are unsure if they ought to commit fully to the attack.

56' Soldado is unchallenged as he heads a set-piece delivery from the right narrowly wide. Liverpool's defence did not look too clever there. That's all that separates Liverpool from disaster - a loss of concentration from a set-piece.

53' Mussachio goes down under Lovren's challenge from a corner, with ends with a wild shot over from Moreno.

50' James Milner displays some excellent close control on the edge of the box, to evade a challenge and get a shot off with his left foot. The strike is straight at Areola, who collects comfortably.

49' Kevin Gameiro puts Sevilla ahead on aggregate in the other game, with Shakhtar trailing 2-1 on the night.

48' Mussachio with an important block to deny Sturridge sending in a cross. Liverpool have a corner, but are unable to fashion a clear chance after a couple of close shaves.

46' NEARLY! Bakambu almost gets a shot off, but Lovren makes an important tackle in the box.

46' Villarreal get us underway in the second half!

HT: The teams exit the iconic Anfield tunnel for the second half. We're moments away from kickoff!
