PEEEEEEEP! PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! That's that from Stamford Bridge. Chelsea have won against Liverpool and kept their hopes of Champions League qualification alive. They were easily the better team on the night. The potential European champions will need to take a good, long look in the mirror after that performance.
93' Liverpool have been shambolic in the second half. But they're piling on the pressure. Sadio Mane swings one into the box and Solanke is there, in the centre of the box. He tries to head it into the goal but Rudiger's late contact makes the difference and the ball goes out for a goalkick.
87' Lovren delivers a ball from the right side and Solanke rises above Azpilicueta and Cahill to direct it towards goal. But he can't quite get it under control and it's headed for the stands.
83' Azpi gets a faint touch on a Henderson cross and fortuitously for him, the pace is taken off and it rolls into the hands of Courtois. Could've gone anywhere.
WHAT A SHOT! 79' Alonso almost pulled off a worldie right there!
Victor Moses drives past Milner on the right flank and his cross carries a bit too much weight but it falls to Marcos Alonso who goes for it on the full and nearly, very nearly pile drives it into the far top corner. I thought that went in for a second! What a goal that would've been!
77' Liverpool getting into threatening positions now. Solanke, however, can't trap the ball well enough to get a shot away and when he eventually gets around to it, Cahill chips in with a well time clearance. That man has been on top of his game today. Captain, leading by example.
75' Hazard wriggles out into space and tries to blast one into the top corner but Van Dijk puts in a block to deny them and Liverpool are on the counter. Mane motors down the left flank and he serves the ball into the path of Solanke but 'Dave' Azpilicueta is there to clear the danger.
69' Once again, Kante wins the ball back in midfield but he can't make anything happen largely due to a lack of options. But Chelsea win the ball back and Hazard roams about to free Alonso on the left side. His cross is dangerously pacy but there's no one there to collect it for Chelsea. But ridiculously, Robertson tries to chest it into the hands of Karius. He misses him by a mile and sends it out for a corner. Nothing comes from the corner once again.
63' Victor Moses wins the ball from a precarious position and drives into the heart of Liverpool's defence and even has the beating of a couple of Reds but Lovren reads it well and Moses' final touch to get past him didn't help either.
