That was the silliest goal Mignolet will concede. A cross, lads and lasses, misjudged by the custodian. A lucky goal, but Chelsea deserve one for all their efforts.
84' Chelsea have stretched play well, but Liverpool have so far managed to clear the crosses and win the second balls. The latter is key with Chelsea having so many attackers now!
80' It's end to end now! Chelsea have to attack, and Liverpool have an obligation against shutting up shop. Never expect a dull game at Merseyside, lads and lasses.
79' Chelsea are finding it easy in the Liverpool half because the hosts are still so open! Matip just about clears the ball off Alonso's feet after he is found by a smashing Fabregas pass.
78' Salah does brilliantly to hold on to the ball in the final third and find Wijnaldum. The Dutchman's shot is blocked for a corner by Cahill! From the corner, Chelsea counter but Hazard is found offside! What a waste!
76' Fabregas nearly does what he is brought on to do. A stunning pass for Morata, but the striker just drifted to an offside position. Liverpool will have to watch out for that pass.
73' Cross after cross from the right flank as Zappacosta has gotten the better of Moreno quite a few times. Liverpool have thus far managed to clear most of them well.
70' Liverpool do well to avoid Hazard and Morata from combining and start a counter of their own with Moreno sprinting on the left. His cross is overhit and Courtois collects safely.
69' Jeez, Henderson! you'd think they'll sit back, but no. Bring on the geggenpress! The skipper makes a sprint from midfield to shut out Cahill in the Chelsea half. The Blues manage to keep possession, however.
67' Chelsea create a chance immediately, but Azpilicueta's pass gets away from Hazard. A bit of miscontrol from the Belgian. Chelsea have the ball and are probing again from the right.
Well, can he stop scoring? Coutinho starts the move and his pass is nearly intercepted by Bakayoko, well nearly! It deflects kindly for Chamberlain, who toe-pokes it for Salah and the Egyptian obliges with a smart finish past Courtois. We have our goal, and the game could open up more now!
63' What a block by Azpilicueta! Salah releases Sturridge on the left, but the striker's shot is blocked acrobatically by Azpi who seemed to have injured himself in the process.
61' Again, Chelsea are finding a lot of space on the left as Moreno isn't able to stop the cross. Chelsea are compact, Liverpool are loose at the back. The away team seem the most likely team to score right now.
59' Calls for handball as it seemed Courtois handles the ball outside the box, but the game goes on. From the counter, Chelsea nearly punish Liverpool but aren't able to find the final ball as Zappacosta's cross is too much for Morata to handle. To be fair, the latter's visibility was blocked as Liverpool had a few defenders back by the time the cross came in.
57' Salah and Sturridge again combine in the Chelsea penalty area, but the defence is so compact that Liverpool can't get a shot away. Jeez, this is frustrating for a neutral.
55' Chamberlain hasn't had the best of games, and it's a surprise he's still on the pitch. Chelsea's midfield numbers have kept him out of the game. Liverpool are now trying to put in a few crosses, but Chelsea are dealing with it easily.
53' A bit of aimless passing from the two sides as they try some route one football, to no avail. The longer the game goes, the safer the two teams will start playing. Which is why we need the subs on now!
51' This game is like a tennis point, except the game never finishes! Liverpool could make their changes sooner rather than later if Chelsea keep threatening their goal. As we speak, Liverpool win a freekick. Bakayoko fouls Coutinho.
50' Chelsea break from their own half, from the Liverpool corner, and win a corner of their own as Zappacosta's cross is cleared by Matip. If only this game had a goal!
48' Penalty shouts by the Chelsea players as it seemed Klavan tripped Hazard, but replays suggest he didn't. Chelsea look far more direct in the second half. Liverpool yet to have a spell of possession.
Well, we've had a few chances, but the teams have defended pretty well if you ask me. Liverpool have a bit of firepower to call upon, and after a bright start, perhaps faded a bit as the first half went on. Chelsea have fashioned more clear-cut openings and will be confident themselves.
44' Calls for a penalty there as it seemed Hazard pushed Coutinho in the back, but replays suggest it was shoulder to shoulder. Salah subsequently tries to run at the Chelsea defence but Christensen holds him off.
42' Morata tries to find the net from about 20 yards, but it's wide after taking a deflection. A lot of half chances, but the keepers haven't had much to do in the last few minutes.
39' Drinkwater and Hazard combine well again and the former's pass to Zappacosta is a blinder! The Italian tries to find a teammate in the box from the right, but it's cleared by Klavan for a corner. Nothing comes off the corner.
36' Nothing comes off the freekick. The positive fact for Liverpool is they still have two good players on the bench to call upon in Mane and Firmino. They'll need them, to be honest. The Reds keep the ball, meanwhile.
34' The game has calmed a bit in terms of clear-cut chances. Chelsea look more threatening, as Courtois is yet to make a good save. Liverpool get a freekick on the right. Can they make it count?
32' Marcos Alonso's freekick is wide. Mignolet had it covered, to be fair. Chelsea have managed more control in the midfield than they did in the first 15 minutes.
